Enables us to prioritize and effectively address critical security issues

Evidence-based reporting helps us to prioritize and solve critical security issues. The new visualization feature demonstrates how an attacker can enter the system, highlighting the potential path that can be exploited and outlining all the steps the attacker could take. With that visibility, we can ensure the perimeter is strong and attackers cannot enter, thus reducing the risk. It has helped us prioritize issues. The visibility into how an attack could happen is valuable. For example, it highlights the system vulnerability and outlines where an attack could propagate. The visualization helps me to prioritize remediation, and if I don't know where to start, I can check to see the score that enables me to prioritize issues. I am using infrastructure-as-code scanning, and it's one of the useful features. In pre-production, it identifies embedded secrets and misconfigurations, including issues with Kubernetes or some privileged containers. This feature allows us to pass the audit and secure IaC code so that it isn't easily exploitable by attackers. We can more proactively work to identify and resolve vulnerabilities by using the dashboard and the alerting system that SentinelOne provides. It helps us with audits and compliance. We can show the compliance in percentage. We can confidently say that our company or infrastructure is very secure. It has improved our security posture by 30% to 35%. It has reduced our false positives by 30%. It has helped teams collaborate better. The security team manages SentinelOne Singularity Cloud Security, and when it flags vulnerabilities, they are forwarded to DevOps for remediation. Previously, we needed to identify and report the issues, but there would be lapses in communication. Now, there is a centralized dashboard that anyone can look at and see the open issues and work on them.

Easy policy designing and highly scalable solution

The customers really want protection against unauthorized applications running on their servers. They should avoid installing any unknown source and use Trellix Cloud Workload Security for the best solution in workload security. It includes DNS with ransomware protection. With this, they can have complete protection for their servers. Additionally, any solution working with the database should implement change control. So, if any changes are made on the database side, they should be resolved and verified to ensure they are not made by any unknown source. This is the best solution we suggest to customers who want granular control to protect their servers. It's easy to deploy with a single agent. Overall, I would rate the solution a nine out of ten because policy designing is very easy too. And the manageability is very easy. You can easily manage it through EPO and deploy policies within five to ten minutes. No issues with that.

Unified cloud visibility has transformed our risk prioritization and reduced alert fatigue while improving collaboration across security and DevSecOps teams

The standout features of Wiz that make it valuable for me include good multi-cloud environment support, data governance, shadow IT detection, DevSecOps governance, automation, level reporting, threat detection, and good infrastructure detection. Wiz has positively impacted my organization by implementing zero trust authorization, providing good reporting that shows the top attack path, critical assets, overall risk posture, and demonstrating AI and ML workload capabilities towards my team, as well as good infrastructure detection and vulnerability detection accuracy with security posture management at massive scale and identity exposure. There is a massive reduction in risk exposure, immediate visibility across the entire cloud estate, reduced noise and better prioritization, stronger DevSecOps collaboration, continuous compliance instead of ad hoc panic, faster incident response with real context, significant cost savings through tool consolidation, and stronger AI and data governance.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"You not only get to know about vulnerabilities and misconfigurations but also some of the actual"

"SentinelOne Singularity Cloud Security can integrate all your cloud accounts and resources you create in the AWS account, We have set it up to scan the AWS transfer services, EC2, security groups, and GitHub."

"The solution helped free other staff to work on other projects or other tasks. We basically just had to do a bunch of upfront configuring. With it, we do not have to spend as much time in the console."

"Cloud Native Security's most valuable features include cloud misconfiguration detection and remediation, compliance monitoring, a robust authentication security engine, and cloud threat detection and response capabilities."

"Cloud Native Security helps us discover vulnerabilities in a cloud environment like open ports that allow people to attack our environment. If someone unintentionally opens a port, we are exposed. Cloud Native Security alerts us so we can remediate the problem. We can also automate it so that Cloud Native Security will fix it."

"We're monitoring several cloud accounts with Singularity. It is convenient to identify issues or security failures in any account. It's nice to have all the details we need to solve these issues."

"Support has been very helpful and provides regular feedback and help whenever needed. They've been very useful."

"It has a user-friendly dashboard that I can access without any difficulty."

More SentinelOne Singularity Cloud Security pros

"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."

"The most valuable feature is the application control."

"The automation roles are essential because we ultimately want to do less work and automate more. The dashboards are easy to read and visually pleasing. You can understand things quickly, which makes it easy for our other teams. The network and infrastructure teams don't know as much about security as we do, so it helps to have a tool that's accessible and nice to look at."

"The most valuable feature of Wiz is that it keeps information up to date without needing to perform scans or schedule maintenance windows. It provides a fresh snapshot of our vulnerability metrics."

"What I appreciate most about Wiz is that the compliance and CSPM aspects of this cloud-native application protection offering are genuinely better than other products available in the market."

"Wiz has helped my organization achieve zero criticals in its issue queues after a month."

"The CSPM module has been the most effective. It was easy to deploy and covered all our accounts through APIs, requiring no agents. Wiz provides instant visibility into high-level risks that we need to address."

"Wiz has positively impacted my organization by implementing zero trust authorization, providing good reporting that shows the top attack path, critical assets, overall risk posture, and demonstrating AI and ML workload capabilities towards my team, as well as good infrastructure detection and vulnerability detection accuracy with security posture management at massive scale and identity exposure."

"Wiz stands out for its strengths, particularly in agentless scanning and graph-based risk prioritization, in addition to its comprehensive CNAPP capabilities and multi-cloud coverage."

"The first thing that stood out was the ease of installation and the quick value we got out of the solution."

More Wiz pros

Cons

"Once all components, including the cloud piece and container runtime piece, integrate further and incorporate an AI layer for better comprehension, it will greatly enhance the utility of Singularity Cloud Security."

"It is not a criticism of the tool per se, but anything to help non-development resources understand some of the complexities of the cloud is always appreciated. Any additional educational resources are always helpful for security teams, especially those without a development background."

"There's an array of upcoming versions with numerous features to be incorporated into the roadmap. Customers particularly appreciate the service's emphasis on intensive security, especially the secret scanning aspect. During the proof of concept (POC) phase, the system is required to gather logs from the customer's environment. This process entails obtaining specific permissions, especially in terms of gateway access. While most permissions for POC are manageable, the need for various permissions may need improvement, especially in the context of security."

"While SentinelOne offers robust security features, its higher cost may present a challenge for budget-conscious organizations."

"SentinelOne Singularity Cloud Security is an excellent CSPM tool, but the CWPP features need to improve, and there is a scope for more application security posture management features. There aren't many ASPM solutions on the market, and existing ones are costly. I would like to see SentinelOne Singularity Cloud Security develop into a single pane of glass for ASPM, CSPM, and CWPP. Another feature I'd like to see is runtime protection."

"There is scope for more application security posture management features. Additionally, the runtime protection needs attention."

"The could improve their mean time to detect."

"There is scope for more application security posture management features. Additionally, the runtime protection needs attention."

More SentinelOne Singularity Cloud Security cons

"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."

"There is room for improvement in the pricing model."

"The reporting isn't that great. They have executive summaries, but it's only a compliance report that maps all current issues to specific controls. Whether you look at one subscription or project, regardless of the size, you will get a multipage report on how the issues in that account map to that control. Our CSO isn't going to read through that. He won't filter that out or show that to his leadership and say, "Here's what we're doing." It isn't a helpful report. They're working on it, but it's a poor executive summary."

"I cannot recommend Wiz to others until I have a clear understanding of its full capacity and benefits."

"There is room for improvement in Wiz, particularly in operator management, as general operators may lack the necessary knowledge, requiring an easier-to-understand tool."

"There is also alert noise in larger environments that generates duplicate alerts for the same issues under different categories."

"Wiz does encounter some glitches similar to other tools in the market; I remember facing certain challenges, such as problems scanning encrypted disks or discrepancies in the findings from already remediated vulnerabilities not reflecting accurately in the tool."

"In Wiz, if there is one vulnerability that occurs multiple times, it is listed only once. However, even if it is a single vulnerability in the same category, it repeats multiple times. This feature can be time-consuming as it requires continuous scrolling."

"It would be better if, when you get an alert type, you are able to view the regex or alert logic without having to dig through all the different options; it is difficult to find where the alert logic is because you have to go to the investigations and then actually find and search for the individual alert."

"We would like to see improvements to executive-level reporting and data reporting in general, which we understand is being rolled out to the platform."

Pricing and Cost Advice

"Singularity Cloud Workload Security's licensing and price were cheaper than the other solutions we looked at."

"The features included in PingSafe justify its price point."

"SentinelOne provided competitive pricing compared to other vendors, and we are satisfied with the deal."

"It's not cheap, but it is worth the price."

"It's a fair price for what you get. We are happy with the price as it stands."

"PingSafe is not very expensive compared to Prisma Cloud, but it's also not that cheap. However, because of its features, it makes sense to us as a company. It's fairly priced."

"SentinelOne offers excellent pricing and licensing options."

"It is not that expensive. There are some tools that are double the cost of PingSafe. It is good on the pricing side."

More SentinelOne Singularity Cloud Security pricing and cost advice

"It is not an expensive product. I am in the Indian market, and it is one of the most reliable and cost-effective solutions."

"The pricing is fair. Some of the more advanced features and functionalities and how the tiers are split can be somewhat confusing."

"I wish the pricing was more transparent."

"Based on the features and capabilities, the product pricing seems reasonable."

"The pricing is fair and comparable to their competitors. The cost seems to be going up, which is a concern. There are potential savings from consolidating tools, but we're uncertain how Wiz's pricing will change over time."

"Wiz is a moderately priced solution, where it is neither cheap nor costly."

"The pricing seems pretty simple. We don't have to do a lot of calculations to figure out what the components are. They do it by enabling specific features, either basics or advanced, which makes it easy to select."

"If one is cheap and ten is expensive, I rate the tool's price as a five out of ten."

"Regarding pricing, it’s more than $100k because we have a very big infrastructure. Our environment supports around three thousand people, and we offer business-to-client financial services to around one million clients, so we rely heavily on Wiz."
