Centralized insights have improved vulnerability tracking and simplified cross-tool comparisons
The best features The Nagomi Proactive Defense Platform offers is the ability to compare each tool. For example, both Tenable and Cortex provide security protection. In scenarios where we did not deploy Cortex XDR to some devices, we can identify this through The Nagomi Proactive Defense Platform because it compares data with the Tenable side. This allows us to perform cross-checking between Tenable and Cortex. If we miss Cortex deployment for end devices, that endpoint could be vulnerable to our cloud applications, so this capability is invaluable. The main feature is the ability to check vulnerabilities. Beyond that, we can cross-check any misconfiguration and missing configuration, such as Cortex missing or Tenable vulnerability management missing on end devices. The Nagomi Proactive Defense Platform shows us a summary of vulnerabilities, which gives us an idea about the security posture of our entire environment. Based on this information, we can decide what security gaps exist on our network and provide solutions to fix these vulnerability gaps. For example, some end devices may not be updated. The Nagomi Proactive Defense Platform checks all summaries and provides a list of assets that are not updated. It gives a complete list by CVE of all devices that are not updated, which we can then provide to our team for remediation. We can request that they upgrade applications such as Google Chrome across all devices.

Streamlines prioritization but reporting needs enhancement
There are several areas needing improvement. The product helps, but the reporting relies heavily on Power BI. It is limited to graphical views and requires additional filtering, posing operational challenges. The inability to download specific asset details directly from the Power BI portal is a drawback, particularly for non-technical users, though it provides high-level executive summaries. The reporting model should be enhanced so that we have the flexibility to download. We have requested a few features, and they are open to accepting those requests. It needs ITSM improvements. It has out-of-the-box integration with ServiceNow, but the customer is using BMC Helix ITSM. We would like an integration with BMC Helix ITSM. When uploading CSV files without an out-of-the-box connector, duplicate entries for assets occur. We have already reported this to them, but we are not sure when they will fix it. It will significantly benefit if we can directly upload business context information from CMDB without manual merging efforts. It can also have automatic remediation capabilities through SCCM or something else.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"The Nagomi Proactive Defense Platform allows us to save our time and protect our system and network."
"They recently upgraded their UI, which is great. It is user-friendly."
"Now that the solution is onboarded, we are saving a lot of time. We're saving roughly four to ten hours a week."
"Vulcan enables us to automate tickets from multiple scanners. It has lots of analytics options that show us charts and allow us to view the statuses in different waves. The dashboard is nice because it's highly informative about the big picture."
"It has allowed us to bring together multiple sources of information from different signal sources into a single point."
"Vulcan Cyber gives the remediation team the focus points."
"I was part of the initial deployment. It was pretty easy. To fully deploy, it took about three or four weeks."
"The interface of Vulcan Cyber is intuitive with a lot of information about vulnerabilities, which helps in classifying and analyzing threats."
"The most notable aspects include having prioritization capabilities and custom scripts."
 

Cons

"My main concern is that The Nagomi Proactive Defense Platform would be better if it were more user-friendly."
"The fact that we cannot use it for our reporting leads me to rate it three out of ten."
"Initially, when onboarding Vulcan Cyber, the setup and configuration was more complex than expected with a user-friendly approach. This aspect can be enhanced."
"Their support is good, but there are some flaws as well."
"I would rate the tool between six and seven because there have been instances when the tool was down, and I couldn't access Cyber reports. Additionally, the Vulcan Cyber team made changes to the tool and did not notify us."
"We've faced situations where we required support on a Friday, and support wasn't available."
"Improvements are needed in providing more concise details on how to apply remedies for particular vulnerabilities. I would like to have more information about the remedies for particular vulnerabilities so that we do not have to go through the CVE numbers and relevant pages to check for a particular vulnerability and its remedy."
"The product helps, but the reporting relies heavily on Power BI. It is limited to graphical views and requires additional filtering, posing operational challenges."

Pricing and Cost Advice

Information not available
"Its pricing is quite fair compared to what is out there in the market, especially compared to the tool from Microsoft. It is a SaaS platform that has an annual cost, so it is something that is already used by many companies. It is quite affordable."
"Our leadership knows better about the pricing. As per my knowledge, which might not be accurate, its price can come down."
