Featured Reviews

Nicki Møller - PeerSpot reviewer
Information Security Engineer at a manufacturing company with 5,001-10,000 employees
Enables automation and quick access to necessary information
One of the significant challenges Qualys is discovery, which I know Microsoft excels at. I can't recall how well Qualys performs this function; it seems I might be missing some details. However, if there's one key aspect to focus on, it's discovery—the ability to identify assets that you are not aware of, even when you can see they are present. Understanding what those assets are is crucial. With Qualys CyberSecurity Asset Management, it was very difficult to extract detections from the system. The features within Qualys are limited to what they have developed. Sometimes a complete overview is needed to push to a Power BI dashboard, Splunk, ServiceNow, or other platforms. The export process is incredibly challenging. We needed a developer to write a hundred-line Python script that would loop over certain assets due to export limitations. Qualys CyberSecurity Asset Management could improve its integration capabilities. While it generates substantial data, correlating it with other data sources can be challenging. The export process is difficult, and pre-built integrations with other tools could be enhanced for better process implementation.

Centralized threat intelligence has improved our visibility and accelerated incident response
You can find out new threats and security incidents with SOCRadar Extended Threat Intelligence. You can see the new vulnerabilities when you are using your products. This is very useful. SOCRadar Extended Threat Intelligence has improved security in my organization, but there are some problems. Sometimes there are too many alarms, which can become quite tiring. We have a lot of information infrastructures, and SOCRadar Extended Threat Intelligence has improved our security, but we do experience some alert fatigue. There are a lot of web servers. We also integrated SOCRadar Extended Threat Intelligence with the SIEM. We can see together, and we can see all of the threats and new threats, especially. If you integrate all internal sources, IP addresses, and services to SOCRadar Extended Threat Intelligence, you can view all of the sources together in a single monitor and area. You can also view all the tickets and vulnerabilities and threats. This is very useful.
