Centralized cloud posture has strengthened security and now needs richer AI remediation features
Prowler currently focuses on cloud services and big vendors, specifically AWS and GCP, but we can improve by including EC2-specific checks, such as identifying open RDP ports. While Prowler supports that, it lacks a suppress feature for false positives reported by users, so this is an area for improvement. The flow of traffic information is vital, as Prowler requires read-only access to resources. Any user can pinpoint using the network and facilitate remediation. There should also be a dashboard for attack vectors to manage incoming traffic and enhance infrastructure security, making these enhancements beneficial for Prowler's future. I give Prowler a score of seven or eight due to its inclusion of multiple security policies and the lack of a feature for adding false positives. Additionally, the network architecture features are incomplete even after recent revisions. Improving AI-sourced security posture features would enhance Prowler's value significantly, as would the option to allow automatic remediation for identified issues. Prowler's AI capabilities are good but just starting, as significant improvements are still needed on that front. I find the AI features reliable and accurate; we rely on the recommendations provided. However, if Prowler could also include remediation capabilities for users, it would significantly reduce manual efforts, showcasing the potential of AI. It currently summarizes data from Security Hub and AWS documentation, and improving this would be beneficial.

Unified dashboards have streamlined code‑to‑cloud risk tracking and reduced manual reviews
The best features of Wiz Code that I appreciate the most include their entire dashboarding and the seamless integration with different DevOps tooling like GitHub or Azure DevOps. It seamlessly integrates, allowing you to run scanners directly onto the machines without consuming too many resources, and the recategorization of vulnerabilities is absolutely wonderful, giving you a complete attack path, which is something I love about Wiz Code because it details the entire lateral movement of the issue, whether it is a complete shift-left or shift-right, serving as the differentiators compared to other tools in the market. When I talk about ROI with Wiz Code, it almost cuts you down to 20% to 25% of the daily effort needed in terms of FTE. If you are working with around 100 developers or engineers, you might come down to 60 to 70 engineers, with the rest completely automated by removing false positives, showcasing where the USP comes in.

Quotes from Members

We asked business professionals to review the solutions they use. Here are some excerpts of what they said:
 

Pros

"Prowler has positively impacted my organization by helping us on the security front by improving compliance."
"Before using Prowler, we were spending hours of our engineers' efforts on compliance and misconfiguration checks, saving that configuration in Excel sheets, and after switching to Prowler, these processes are super smooth and easy, and we are currently saving our engineers' time."
"Prowler offers real-time scanning, which is crucial when improving our cloud security posture, as updates can be immediately reflected on the scoreboard."
"Prowler has saved us a lot of time, as our engineers previously wasted time manually checking all the configurations of cloud resources maintained in Excel sheets; after switching to Prowler, we save 60 to 70% of our engineers' time, as they no longer need to check each cloud account and resource individually."
"Overall, Wiz Code is a very good tool to use in any organization, whether mid-level or high-level, and it is very useful and user-friendly for employees."
"Wiz Code has positively impacted my organization because it is better on a daily basis; we receive new cases, and it is easy to analyze and take care of them."
"Wiz Code has positively impacted our organization as it helped us to maintain a healthy application security side of the company and to remediate our vulnerabilities."
"In my opinion, all the security features Wiz Code offers are the best."
"Before Wiz Code, the security team manually correlated the cloud assets, vulnerabilities, IAM permissions, and internet exposure, with critical issues identified in five days, but now, with the security graph automatically correlating findings, critical issues are identified in 30 minutes, resulting in a 90 percent plus reduction in investigation effort."
"Wiz Code offers minimum false positive vulnerabilities, which is the best feature and meets expectations for the tool."
"The best features with Wiz Code give you a reasonable picture when it comes to vulnerabilities, which means you see the usual severity levels, you also get to see references on how to remediate vulnerabilities, and the fact that it has a visual dashboard helps all stakeholders, especially folks who need to remediate, to get that picture correctly and then take action."
"Wiz Code is a platform that serves most of these features as a single entity, which has definitely reduced the time for triaging the security aspects of vulnerabilities and helps in overall innovation for the team."
 

Cons

"For the reports, Prowler does not provide PDF reports for all compliances; it only gives reports for the Prowler configuration."
"I give Prowler a score of seven or eight due to its inclusion of multiple security policies and the lack of a feature for adding false positives."
"Some of the findings in Prowler are not that critical but come in the critical category, so that could be improved."
"One limitation is that after scanning the cloud account, Prowler provides reports of compliance frameworks such as SOC 2 Type 2 and ISO certified, but we only receive an Excel sheet; I think a PDF report along with remediation steps is needed to help us improve our cloud accounts better."
"The dashboards can be better; we have dashboards, but they are really complex and have a lot of information."
"I have a big improvement in mind for Wiz Code, not a small improvement."
"Wiz Code could be improved by showing us the dependencies that are affecting us; if we are upgrading one dependency, it would be helpful to know if down the road that's going to cause any problems with other dependencies."
"Timely responses from customer support for Wiz Code are not being received. Service requests are raised, but proper responses are not provided."
"Wiz Code has many features, and I think they could continue to enhance customization according to our requirements."
"Metadata ingestion and probably the integration of Wiz Code platform is something which is missing."
"The pricing of Wiz Code is a little bit higher for small enterprises that I run, but it's something that I can manage."
"There are many improvements that could be made to Wiz Code, but I would point out that sometimes it gives false results, though not every time."
