Unified risk scoring has improved our cloud visibility and simplifies remediation priorities
Qualys TotalCloud provides unified vulnerability and threat assessment across both IAS and SaaS. This solution provides a single prioritized view of risk, which helps reduce the work I would have to do. We are no longer based on CVSS; we are based on Qualys risk scoring, which is based on CVSS plus internal findings made by Qualys, and then assigns its own score. The TruRisk insight feature has found a small number of assets with high vulnerability scores, though I am cautious since some information is classified. Qualys TotalCloud has positively impacted our bank's performance, and we have definitely seen benefits after implementing this solution.

Granular protection has improved cloud workload visibility and reduced breach and ransomware risk
Trellix Cloud Workload Security is important in our organization because it reduces our risk of data breaches, protects from ransomware, and addresses the misconfiguration of cloud resources such as AWS and Azure. If any lateral movement has occurred in our infrastructure, it provides me with an alert, along with notifications of any container misconfiguration. We also receive continuous visibility of servers and compliance assurance for our vulnerability protection, ensuring that if something is not patched or vulnerable, the vulnerabilities are fixed. The best feature of Trellix Cloud Workload Security is the granular level implementation and configuration of ransomware protection, which includes a threat prevention module and vulnerability protection, allowing us to protect our servers with the help of container security. When discussing the granular level implementation in Trellix Cloud Workload Security, it means that when we configure the policies for threat prevention, we can define many aspects such as the type of file, kernel level, boot level, execution read-write time, memory-specific, and application-specific parameters. We can configure it properly based on our knowledge and also define the schedule for anti-malware scanning and updates. Trellix Cloud Workload Security has positively impacted our organization by improving our visibility across cloud and infrastructure, showing how many workloads we have and what is occurring with those workloads. It enhances protection against threat monitoring through real-time alerts and addresses misconfiguration and vulnerabilities on workloads and running applications. Additionally, it ensures compliance with organizational and industry securities, facilitating faster incident detection and response, which helps our IT and security team proactively remediate risks before major incidents occur. When discussing faster incident detection and response with Trellix Cloud Workload Security, if any alert comes through, such as a vulnerability detected on a server, expanding the alert provides us with MITRE framework tactics and techniques, including necessary remediations for updates or modifications.

Centralized cloud view has improved threat response and simplified compliance reporting
We are using Trend Vision One - Cloud Security for getting complete visibility of all the assets that exist within our cloud, and it helps us identify any sort of misconfigurations or fine-tuning that can be done to better our compliance. Trend Vision One - Cloud Security helps in onboarding all the cloud solutions or cloud providers that we have within our organization into a single dashboard, thereby providing greater visibility of all the assets. Earlier we used to have multiple dashboards to manage the same solution or capability, but with Trend Micro, we are able to get everything in a single pane of glass, benefiting our operations significantly. We are using the playbooks built into Trend Vision One - Cloud Security, which help us take a lot of response actions and bring automation capabilities into play. Trend Vision One - Cloud Security has positively impacted our organization by providing a single pane of glass visibility across all the cloud solutions that we have and reducing the number of threats we used to see earlier in the cloud. We are seeing that the number of cloud operations required earlier in terms of threat detection and response, and the time taken to detect a particular threat and take a response action, has considerably improved after onboarding Trend Micro.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"One of the features I appreciate is the ability to generate daily reports without relying on anyone else."
"The most valuable feature is extensibility."
"Qualys TotalCloud's most valuable feature is its ability to link clusters of assets, providing a clear model of deployments, vulnerabilities, and statuses."
"By integrating TotalCloud, we have significantly reduced vulnerabilities in our deployment pipeline."
"The most valuable feature is the consolidated information that it provides from various platforms."
"TotalCloud provides the easiest and the best approach for cloud infrastructure management."
"Its excellent graphical interface makes the scanning process simple."
"I would rate Qualys TotalCloud ten out of ten."
"All these things are beautifully done by McAfee Cloud Workload Security."
"The discovery feature is the most valuable. After you integrate your cloud environment, maybe an Azure or AWS, or a private environment hosted on VMware, it automatically starts discovering the number of servers that are running on that cloud and the number of services that you have done. It is a beautiful feature because, from a security standpoint, it is difficult to identify which VM is compliant or not when you keep on provisioning a number of VMs in the cloud. It also checks for compliance. It checks whether a system is compliant and whether antivirus is installed on a VM. If an antivirus is installed, it checks whether the antivirus is updated to the latest signature package or not. All these things are beautifully done by McAfee Cloud Workload Security. For communicating with the McAfee server, you need to install an agent on the VM. McAfee Cloud Workload Security gives you a direct opportunity to install an agent on a Windows machine. If you have a Windows cloud, you can directly push that agent onto the VM through your McAfee portal. It provides you a single dashboard view of all servers present in the cloud. It shows the servers on which the antivirus is already installed as well as the servers for which the antivirus installation is still pending. This dashboard view is a much-needed thing. It also has a centralized management, which makes it easy to use."
"From my personal experience as a reseller, what really stands out in Trellix Cloud Workload Security is that it provides focused security with enhanced protection for servers in a cloud environment."
"The most valuable feature is the application control."
"Trellix Cloud Workload Security has positively impacted our organization by improving our visibility across cloud and infrastructure, showing how many workloads we have and what is occurring with those workloads."
"If any vulnerability attack is there, it can secure that particular server in real-time."
"Detection response and cloud conformity are valuable features."
"The most valuable features are intrusion prevention and anti-malware capabilities."
"Virtual patching is one of the key features, which is executed with their IPS."
"Trend Vision One - Cloud Security does not utilize a lot of resources which allows our users to keep working even during a scan."
"Trend Vision One - Cloud Security has positively impacted our organization by providing a single pane of glass visibility across all the cloud solutions that we have and reducing the number of threats we used to see earlier in the cloud."
"Trend Vision One stands out for its stability and reliability compared to its competitors."
"I like the solution's baselines."
 

Cons

"The areas in the solution that have room for improvement include the UI/UX design, which should be improved, and they should integrate more artificial intelligence into the product."
"To improve the user experience, reporting could be simplified for better comprehension by end users and project managers, facilitating issue resolution."
"The patching process with Qualys Patch Management, which is part of TotalCloud, does not cover installing certain prerequisites on the servers or workstations."
"There is room for improvement in vulnerability scanning, particularly for PaaS environments. Currently, Qualys does not have full access to these instances, which limits its effectiveness."
"I think Qualys TotalCloud needs to improve its handling of zero-day vulnerabilities and supply chain management because modern ransomware attacks not only target prime critical infrastructures but also the supply chain system."
"TotalCloud could improve its scanning of niche devices like Wi-Fi dongles and USB modems because they are often untested. It covers everything else, like laptops, mobile devices, and Bluetooth IoT devices. They can improve on the small IoT devices because hackers and testers use these."
"Regarding technical support from Qualys, they respond, but the response time can be too long. Sometimes we need to wait weeks for solutions to simple questions."
"The downside is only in container security, but it has not been a long time since they introduced these models."
"Its vulnerability assessment is not the best. We cannot identify the vulnerabilities that are related to the operating system by using McAfee Cloud Workload Security. I wish McAfee would add a vulnerability assessment tool that will not only identify the vulnerability but will also be able to generate a report so that the required patching can be done for the servers. Currently, McAfee Cloud Workload Security only integrates with AWS and Azure. If it can also integrate with GCP, Alibaba, and other cloud services available in the market, it would be good because not all people are using Azure and AWS."
"Its vulnerability assessment is not the best. We cannot identify the vulnerabilities that are related to the operating system by using McAfee Cloud Workload Security."
"We experience limited customer support, typically requiring a minimum wait of three to four hours for ticket responses."
"There is room for improvement in the pricing model."
"I still believe the support could improve because we face multiple challenges with Trellix support for solving issues, which take too long."
"Trend Vision One - Cloud Security should address threats automatically without having user input."
"Documentation on cloud architecture and job architecture would be helpful."
"Trend Vision One - Cloud Security seems to have a preference for AWS Cloud over Azure and would be improved by focusing equally on both."
"Currently, we must procure and configure the server hardware independently, as we obtain the software separately from Trend Micro."
"There are also some loopholes because it's a new product that they have recently migrated to the cloud. We do see some issues with the policies we have assigned when it comes to a particular account. There are some issues with system support, such as a particular server kernel version that is not supported."
"I would like to see more third-party integrations being added into Trend Vision One - Cloud Security, as it currently has a good amount of integrations but does not allow ingestion from many third-party solutions."
"The pricing can get high."
"Trend Vision One - Cloud security aims to protect our assets, but the rapid spread of viruses and vulnerabilities through malicious emails remains a significant concern."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"Although Qualys TotalCloud is relatively expensive due to its unique automation features, its cost-effectiveness is rated an eight out of ten, with ten being the most costly."

"Qualys TotalCloud is expensive."
"Qualys TotalCloud offers good pricing that is affordable and competitive with the market. Our partnership also provides us with additional benefits."
"It isn't cheap, but it's reasonable. It helps us to manage things with very few resources."

"Two years ago, it cost $200 for 20 credits, which was a high cost."
"The pricing for Cloud One is reasonable because my costs scale up and down based on my infrastructure usage."
"One year ago, Trend transitioned to a credit system for licensing, which has confused users."
"Pricing for Trend Micro Cloud One Container Security in the corporate market is okay."
"While Trend Vision One - Cloud Security was a cost-effective solution for us in 2021, we've noticed a recent price increase that makes it less affordable."
"The price could be lower. That is a bit of a consideration."
"I rate the solution's pricing a six out of ten."
