Multi-cloud support, easy setup, and good granularity for rules
Pros and Cons
  • "The multi-cloud support is valuable. They are expanding to different clouds. It is not restricted to only AWS. It allows us to have different clouds on one platform."
  • "In terms of ease of use, initially, it is a bit confusing to navigate around, but once you get used to it, it becomes easier."

What is our primary use case?

We are a security-based company. We use SentinelOne Singularity Cloud Security to put our data planes on it. We have a cloud setup, and we have integrated SentinelOne Singularity Cloud Security into our environment. It checks for any audit or security-related issues.

By implementing SentinelOne Singularity Cloud Security, we wanted a centralized solution. We have many AWS accounts to manage, so we wanted a single dashboard with analytics. We wanted to be able to view and monitor everything at once. We also wanted to customize the rules on which we wanted the alerts to be set up. SentinelOne Singularity Cloud Security was a better option for our use case.

How has it helped my organization?

We have multiple rules set up on SentinelOne Singularity Cloud Security for things that we want to monitor. We have set up something for restricted access for SSH, and then we have access to the EC2 instances. If any of the rules are broken or if there is a bad actor, we get notified quickly. It also helps with the audit and keeping the infrastructure clean.

SentinelOne Singularity Cloud Security includes proof of exploitability in its evidence-based reporting. This is quite important for us because we are a security-based company. We want to tag each and every alert correctly. We also need to provide RCA to the customers. SentinelOne Singularity Cloud Security forms a very good basic layer for things that are happening in the infrastructure. The reports that it gives are also nice. It gives us information about the impact and other things. It helps us.

Its setup is good. It also depends on how finely you want to set it up. It depends on the rules you set, the thresholds you set, and how quickly you act on things. We did not want SentinelOne Singularity Cloud Security to act on things, so we went for a basic setup without any auto-remediation. We act on the issues. It provides us with a basic layer of security.

Previously, we used to find issues from the AWS console and the AWS logs, but because we had multiple AWS accounts, finding out the issues was a bit of a pain point for us. We had to go inside 30 to 40 AWS accounts to find out the capabilities. We had to write our own automation scripts to find the full logs. We wanted a solution that gave us a centralized place to put all the issues that we were facing based on security concerns. With SentinelOne Singularity Cloud Security, we found a centralized solution. It was easy for us to get the data of 30 to 40 clusters in a single dashboard. It was pretty nice to have that. The UI seems a bit confusing initially, but once you start using it, it becomes more intuitive.

There is a team that is working on setting it up on ISE. So far, with just a vanilla setup, it is doing its job, and we are happy with it.

There are a few false positives, but we want them to be there. We do not want to miss out on something. We want everything to be monitored. It does not matter to us if it is a false positive. At the end of the day, the cost that we would pay by ignoring a true positive thinking it is a false positive would be much higher than going through false positives and marking them as false positives.

For every module and everything that we do on our AWS clusters, we evaluate the risk individually, and then SentinelOne Singularity Cloud Security forms an extra layer of security on top of the personal checks that we do. It is like a shield for us. It helps us a lot.

SentinelOne Singularity Cloud Security has reduced the mean time to detect issues by a lot. Earlier, it was a very manual process to detect errors. There was not a single place where we could look into all the alerts. They were all scattered. SentinelOne Singularity Cloud Security unified that. With SentinelOne Singularity Cloud Security, once the alert is detected, we can just look into it directly. We can go into a specific cluster, resolve the issues, and mark it as resolved. There is a 45% to 50% reduction in the mean time to detect.

Our mean time to remediate remains the same because we have manual remediation. There is no change in that. The main issue for us was to be able to detect issues, and SentinelOne Singularity Cloud Security solved that for us, but because remediation is taken care of by us manually, the mean time to remediate remains the same.

SentinelOne Singularity Cloud Security is continuously monitored by the customer success engineering team and the security team. These people contact the infrastructure team. The application team is not involved because we mostly monitor the infrastructure side. That is the AWS side. It helps us with better collaboration. When the time zones change, we do not have to give a lot of context or change information across different time zones to different people. They can go into the console, see the issue, and continue to work on it.

Earlier, if there was a security issue, it had to be handed over to people in different time zones. Because we are a global company, we have on-calls and other things. Earlier, it used to be a big process. We had to write down the whole documentation of what happened, where we were seeing the issue, and whether it was resolved or not. We had to provide the complete information on that single issue. Things are simpler now because people can just log into it and see what is in the pending state and which security vulnerabilities we are still facing. A person in a different time zone can just log into the SentinelOne Singularity Cloud Security console and start remediating the issue.

What is most valuable?

The multi-cloud support is valuable. They are expanding to different clouds. It is not restricted to only AWS. It allows us to have different clouds on one platform. The integration is quite easy. It took around 15 minutes for the whole stack to set up. It was very easy to set up. That was one of the best things.

The custom rules are also valuable. We can set up our own thresholds on the rules. We can have a granular setup for the rules. We can also scan for specific ports and specific AWS modules. The granularity of rules is good. 

What needs improvement?

In terms of ease of use, initially, it is a bit confusing to navigate around, but once you get used to it, it becomes easier. Initially, I had problems finding a few things and creating the policies. It was a bit difficult for me, but after going through the documentation, it got easier.

I was checking the IaC checks that they have, and they can add something for auto-remediating IaC. They can integrate something that will help auto-remediate on IaC and make needed changes to the code. They can also integrate something like CoPilot.

Other than that, I do not have any input. They have covered quite a bit. They are doing a good job. The features are good for what we are using it for right now.

Learn what your peers think about SentinelOne Singularity Cloud Security. Get advice and tips from experienced pros sharing their opinions. Updated: December 2025.
879,310 professionals have used our research since 2012.

For how long have I used the solution?

I have been using SentinelOne Singularity Cloud Security for 3 to 4 months.

What do I think about the stability of the solution?

Its stability is good. We do not have a high volume. It is doing well for the scale that we have. I would rate it a 9 out of 10 for stability.

What do I think about the scalability of the solution?

Its scalability is good. I would rate it an 8 out of 10 for scalability. It meets our requirements. SentinelOne Singularity Cloud Security does the very basic job of collecting the CloudWatch logs, keeping them in a centralized place, and looking for errors. We have scaled it across all of our AWS accounts, and it is doing well. I do not see any issues coming in the future as well.

SentinelOne Singularity Cloud Security is being used by our infrastructure team. There are 15 to 20 people who keep a check.

How are customer service and support?

Their support was good. I would rate them an 8 out of 10.

How would you rate customer service and support?

Positive

Which solution did I use previously and why did I switch?

We did not have anything like SentinelOne Singularity Cloud Security before.

How was the initial setup?

The initial setup was straightforward. It only took about 15 minutes.

We initially had issues handling the setup. We were doing it slightly wrong. We ran it multiple times which messed up the setup. We got SentinelOne Singularity Cloud Security folks on the call. SentinelOne Singularity Cloud Security people assisted us with it, and it was very quick once they were on the call.

We are on the cloud. We have different AWS clusters, and we have onboarded AWS clusters to it. There is a single dashboard for us. We have not integrated it with anything else. SentinelOne Singularity Cloud Security is a separate system running, and we have not integrated it with anything. Being a security company, we are directly adding third-party solutions to our stack. 

SentinelOne Singularity Cloud Security does not require any maintenance from our side. It was a one-time installation, and since then, we have not had any issues with it.

What other advice do I have?

Based on the things that we have tested, it does a pretty good job of alerting and reporting. If you have a highly scaled environment with 50 to 60 AWS clusters and you are looking for a tool that simplifies getting security logs, SentinelOne Singularity Cloud Security is the perfect solution. It does the job. I would recommend SentinelOne Singularity Cloud Security to others.

SentinelOne Singularity Cloud Security has an auto-remediation feature, but we are not using that because we have to give a lot of access to SentinelOne Singularity Cloud Security for that. We are not willing to do so. That is why we do not use the auto-remediation offered by SentinelOne Singularity Cloud Security. We just get the alerts, and then we act on them. We also do not use agentless vulnerability scanning, IaC scanning, and SentinelOne Singularity Cloud Security's Offensive Security Engine.

Overall, I would rate SentinelOne Singularity Cloud Security an 8 out of 10.

Provides a unified dashboard, reduces detection times, and strengthens our security posture
Pros and Cons
  • "SentinelOne Singularity Cloud Security offers three key features: vulnerability management notifications, cloud configuration assistance, and security scanning."
  • "We can customize security policies but lack auditing capabilities."

What is our primary use case?

SentinelOne Singularity Cloud Security offers a variety of functionalities, including cloud configuration assessment and detailed misconfiguration reports. It automates vulnerability scanning, saving us time and effort. Additionally, SentinelOne Singularity Cloud Security allows us to filter compliance-related findings and provides consolidated reports for a comprehensive view.

Furthermore, SentinelOne Singularity Cloud Security can conduct customized posture management research for Cloud Posture Management initiatives. This eliminates the need for complex, independent research. Finally, SentinelOne Singularity Cloud Security helps us understand our readiness for specific security certifications.

How has it helped my organization?

One of the key features of SentinelOne Singularity Cloud Security that we utilize is its cloud-based configuration. This helps with our cloud security monitoring processes. This allows for infrastructure automation and broader implementation access. To mitigate this risk, we have multiple personnel actively monitoring activity to safeguard against vulnerabilities, employing vulnerability scanning techniques.

SentinelOne Singularity Cloud Security simplifies managing compliance. It gives us a clear compliance report, allowing us to easily identify areas for improvement and achieve full compliance. This makes it a valuable resource.

SentinelOne Singularity Cloud Security is easy to use. I would rate the ease of use 9 out of 10 compared to our previous tool which had good features but was not as intuitive as SentinelOne Singularity Cloud Security and had bugs.

SentinelOne Singularity Cloud Security's dashboard provides a single place for managing everything, including reporting and prioritization. Previously, we relied on Jira, which required submitting and closing tickets. This meant we were juggling both Jira and separate ticket management. Now, SentinelOne Singularity Cloud Security consolidates everything into a single dashboard, allowing us to see all issue priorities and address them directly. As a result, our resolution times have significantly improved, going from 9 days down to 3.

SentinelOne Singularity Cloud Security's proof of exploitability in evidence-based reporting is important. We can see all the evidence and assess it to see why the vulnerability has come up. We are also able to edit the policies and create custom policies.

Identifying preproduction issues in the IAC template or container configuration files is helpful. SentinelOne Singularity Cloud Security notifies us if the public rate defined is different which should not happen. Sometimes we encounter false positives but not many.

SentinelOne Singularity Cloud Security improved our security through the cloud configuration feature. We receive notifications if someone makes changes and our mitigation time has gone from up to 30 days down to nine.

SentinelOne Singularity Cloud Security generates some alerts that we categorize as false positives. These can occur, for instance, when someone uses a publicly available open-source tool and SentinelOne Singularity Cloud Security flags it. While SentinelOne Singularity Cloud Security's detection is valid in itself, we consider it a false positive because our development doesn't rely on that particular tool.

Our recent security assessment revealed a positive change in our security posture. We've moved from a medium to a high rating, thanks in part to SentinelOne Singularity Cloud Security.

SentinelOne Singularity Cloud Security has reduced our mean time to detect by 40 percent.

It has reduced our mean time to remediate down to 9 days.

Using SentinelOne Singularity Cloud Security, our cloud security, application development, and AppSec teams have achieved a high level of collaboration. All work is automatically updated within SentinelOne Singularity Cloud Security, allowing each team to generate reports, review identified issues, and work towards resolving them.

Integrating AI with SentinelOne Singularity Cloud Security has strengthened our security posture.

What is most valuable?

It offers three key features: vulnerability management notifications, cloud configuration assistance, and security scanning.

What needs improvement?

We can customize security policies but lack auditing capabilities. Ideally, we should be able to review logs and track user access.

For how long have I used the solution?

I have been using SentinelOne Singularity Cloud Security for 1.5 years.

What do I think about the stability of the solution?

I would rate the stability of SentinelOne Singularity Cloud Security 10 out of 10.

What do I think about the scalability of the solution?

I would rate the scalability of SentinelOne Singularity Cloud Security 10 out of 10. We are using multiple clouds and have integrated them with SentinelOne Singularity Cloud Security allowing us to easily scale.

How are customer service and support?

SentinelOne Singularity Cloud Security provides excellent technical support. In addition to monthly guidance, we also receive a comprehensive quarterly business review. We haven't needed to contact their support team outside of these scheduled interactions. We also have a customer support engineer readily available to assist us whenever we encounter any issues.

How would you rate customer service and support?

Positive

Which solution did I use previously and why did I switch?

We switched to SentinelOne Singularity Cloud Security because of the price and user-friendly functionality.

How was the initial setup?

The initial deployment was easy because it was cloud-based and handled by SentinelOne Singularity Cloud Security. The entire deployment process only took 1 day. We had a meeting beforehand, and the next day, they provided us with the steps to follow. We successfully integrated the system by following these instructions. 2 people from our organization were involved in the deployment.

What was our ROI?

SentinelOne Singularity Cloud Security has delivered a return on investment by enabling collaborating teams to save up to 50 percent of their time.

What's my experience with pricing, setup cost, and licensing?

SentinelOne Singularity Cloud Security is fairly priced.

What other advice do I have?

I would rate SentinelOne Singularity Cloud Security 9 out of 10.

10 people in our organization use SentinelOne Singularity Cloud Security.

I recommend SentinelOne Singularity Cloud Security to others.

It's more scalable and flexible than our previous solution because we don't need to install any agents
Pros and Cons
  • "SentinelOne Singularity Cloud Security provides email alerts and ranks issues based on severity, such as high, critical, etc., that help us prioritize issues."
  • "The reporting works well, but sometimes the severity classifications are inaccurate. Sometimes, it flags an issue as high-impact, but it should be a lower severity."

What is our primary use case?

We use SentinelOne Singularity Cloud Security for cloud security posture management. It's used for AWS use cases to prevent leaked credentials and unauthorized access to our S3 buckets. 

How has it helped my organization?

Before SentinelOne Singularity Cloud Security, we couldn't identify all of the hidden vulnerabilities on the endpoints. A manual approach was insufficient because we weren't getting everything. We were catching about 40 percent of the issues, and now it's up to almost 99 percent. 

What is most valuable?

SentinelOne Singularity Cloud Security provides email alerts and ranks issues based on severity, such as high, critical, etc., that help us prioritize issues. SentinelOne Singularity Cloud Security's vulnerability scanning works well. 

What needs improvement?

The reporting works well, but sometimes the severity classifications are inaccurate. Sometimes, it flags an issue as high-impact, but it should be a lower severity. For example, it might highlight an exposed AWS encryption key, a critical compliance issue, but it isn't tagged as a high-risk problem. That only happens about 10 percent of the time. It shows a true positive 80-90 percent of the time. 

For how long have I used the solution?

I have used SentinelOne Singularity Cloud Security for six months.

What do I think about the stability of the solution?

We haven't had any problems with SentinelOne Singularity Cloud Security's stability. 

What do I think about the scalability of the solution?

SentinelOne Singularity Cloud Security is more scalable than Qualys. 

How are customer service and support?

I rate SentinelOne Singularity Cloud Security support eight out of 10. They are very knowledgeable and supportive. 

How would you rate customer service and support?

Positive

Which solution did I use previously and why did I switch?

We previously used Qualys but switched to SentinelOne Singularity Cloud Security because it's easier to use. It's also more scalable and flexible. We don't need to install an agent. 

How was the initial setup?

SentinelOne Singularity Cloud Security is a hybrid deployment. The initial setup was easy. We had a consultant. 

What's my experience with pricing, setup cost, and licensing?

SentinelOne Singularity Cloud Security is priced in the middle. It's better than Qualys. 

What other advice do I have?

I rate SentinelOne Singularity Cloud Security 10 out of 10. 

Which deployment model are you using for this solution?

Hybrid Cloud

Offers a great dashboard and good UI
Pros and Cons
  • "The dashboard gives me an overview of all the things happening in the product, making it one of the tool's best features."
  • "The alerting system of the product is an area that I look at and sometimes get confused about. I feel the alerting feature needs improvement."

What is our primary use case?

My company is trying to get an ISO certification by the second quarter of 2024, so we have been resolving certain security issues for the past year.

I use the solution in my company, where we have alerts coming from SentinelOne Singularity Cloud Security, especially if any security threats are there. Our company's primary concern in using the tool is to get the ISO certification. My company wants to get our infrastructure to meet ISO standards so that there won't be any issues while getting ISO certification.

How has it helped my organization?

With the product in my organization, I feel that we are more secure now, and our services have become better. My company gets to know if we are doing something right or wrong based on the scans that SentinelOne Singularity Cloud Security deploys. My company doesn't have to care much about security because SentinelOne Singularity Cloud Security takes care of it for us. My company also knows what all the best practices are there for each resource, which gives us a boundary of what we can do.

What is most valuable?

Most of the time, I have looked at the tool's dashboard to keep an eye on how much of my company is compliant regarding certain areas since we are eyeing ISO 22000 and ISO 22001. I just love the tool's dashboard, though I have not used it in depth. I like the dashboard mainly, and I know that all sections of ISO certification have been completed. I have not used the tool that much, but under that dashboard itself if I just click on the certification part, which states that 93 percent has been completed, it will show me the subcategories of what all things are still pending or how much percentage of it is still pending, and how many areas are yet to be resolved in relation to some of the resources. The dashboard gives me an overview of all the things happening in the product, making it one of the tool's best features.

What needs improvement?

When I joined my organization, I saw that SentinelOne Singularity Cloud Security was already implemented. I started to use the tool's alerting features and dashboard functionalities. Considering how much I used the product, I don't see any areas in it where improvements are required since everything seems fine.

Sometimes, there are alerts that don't have proper messaging attached. The tool can improve the alerting notifications. In SentinelOne Singularity Cloud Security, the alerts also show the affected resource that has a particular issue, but sometimes, the account shows as not applicable, and it isn't very helpful since you need to know the account the tool aims to point out.

The alerting system of the product is an area that I look at and sometimes get confused about. I feel the alerting feature needs improvement.

For how long have I used the solution?

I have been using SentinelOne Singularity Cloud Security for more than a year. My company is a customer of the solution.

What do I think about the stability of the solution?

My company has not experienced bugs, downtime, or any other issues in the product.

Stability-wise, I rate the solution an 8 out of 10.

What do I think about the scalability of the solution?

It is a scalable solution. Scalability-wise, I rate the solution a 7 out of 10.

My company's tech team consists of twelve people and around ten to twelve people use the product.

How are customer service and support?

I rate the technical support an 8-9 out of 10.

How would you rate customer service and support?

Positive

How was the initial setup?

The solution is deployed using the cloud services offered by AWS.

What other advice do I have?

SentinelOne Singularity Cloud Security regularly sends us messages on Slack for cloud security monitoring if it finds a certain security threat. If the area revolving around the security threat is something my company wants to look into, we just quickly check the product to see if there is a quick fix, and if there are no solutions, then we find a way to deal with it. A person from our company's team regularly tries to fix all the issues raised by SentinelOne Singularity Cloud Security so that it is ISO compatible, and right now, my company is close to achieving it.

Speaking about the issues my company was trying to resolve by implementing SentinelOne Singularity Cloud Security in our environment, I would say that whatever issues the tool has raised till now are related to certain policies that we might not have implemented in our IAM. There should only be certain roles that can access certain resources. The aforementioned area consists of the types of issues my company is currently trying to resolve so that we stay up to the mark. In my company, we don't have any regular threats that come up, but they are mainly used in regard to policies.

Considering how much I have used it to date, I can say that it is an easy-to-use product. However, I have not used the product in-depth, so I can't comment much about it.

If I assess the evidence-based reporting for helping prioritize and solve important cloud security issues, I would say that the concerns raised by the product are valid ones, and it is important to deal with them. Though I am not sure what the question entails, I feel that the issues raised by the product are proper, and they should be resolved before actually implementing its features.

I think it is very important for the solution to include proof of exploitability in evidence-based reporting. You have to know what things might go wrong if an issue is not resolved, and it makes it easier for us to assess key issues and to decide which areas should be taken into priority, considering what potential issues might crop up in the long run or short term. In general, SentinelOne Singularity Cloud Security is a quite helpful tool.

The most valuable feature of the tool in terms of real-time threat detection stems from the alerts my company receives via Slack. I think the alert feature is something I have majorly looked into, but I haven't explored many of SentinelOne Singularity Cloud Security'd features.

Whether the compliance monitoring capabilities of the tool have benefited our organization or not is something that we will get to know soon via its results in the next two or three months. My company is very close to getting ISO certification with SentinelOne Singularity Cloud Security's help. I think if it gave our company a demo compliance feature, it could be helpful.

The product's UI is good if I speak about the impact of its ease of use on security operations. The UI is very easy to navigate. Basically, I was able to navigate through the tool's dashboard. Overall, the tool's UI structure looks good.

My company has rarely had to deal with an incident involving a false positive with SentinelOne Singularity Cloud Security in place, and I believe that it happened at the end of the previous year. After that, my company didn't need to deal with any false positives. With SentinelOne Singularity Cloud Security, the chances of seeing a false positive are rare.

In terms of risk posture, after going through the recommendations provided by SentinelOne Singularity Cloud Security during the implementation phase, I feel that my solution has helped my company get better and more secure because now we are less vulnerable to attacks. Overall, I think that the product is good for improving an organization's risk posture. In my company, we don't have any doubts about using the product since everything feels right with it.

The tool has reduced the mean time to detect risks since, with the use of the tool, it has become faster as it is now done automatically. In my company, I operate in a very small team where we don't have a specific person or department giving us insights about a particular tool. The tool has reduced the mean time to detect risks by more than 50 percent. My company never scanned our own infrastructure until SentinelOne Singularity Cloud Security did. Until my company had it in mind that we wanted to get an ISO certification, we never scanned our infrastructure.

The mean time required to remediate is an area that has improved a lot. My company has never tried to resolve any issues since we have never detected any problems. The mean time to remediate has improved by more than 50 percent.

The product can make the collaboration between cloud security application developers and AppSec teams better. In my company, we only have one team, and we don't have a few departments.

The product has helped my company save a lot of engineering time because we don't have to put up physical resources to do many things, as they are managed automatically. In my company, we just have to employ one engineer to resolve everything. My company doesn't actually have to spend time detecting issues and then solving them as the tool solves them for us.

I have not integrated the tool with the existing solutions in my company's infrastructure or workflows. I use it as a standalone product in my company.

The product is used in just one location.

I don't think that the product requires any maintenance. I don't think that my company does any maintenance for SentinelOne Singularity Cloud Security.

I recommend the product to those who plan to use it. I think the tool has a very good alerting system. The tool also gives a proper description of resources and alerts. I think that the tool is very good for meeting the certification compliance requirements.

I rate the overall tool a 9 out of 10.

If public cloud, private cloud, or hybrid cloud, which cloud provider do you use?

Provides visibility, saves time, and automatically maps networks
Pros and Cons
  • "SentinelOne Singularity Cloud Security offers an intuitive user interface that lets us navigate quickly and easily."
  • "Customized queries should be made easier to improve SentinelOne Singularity Cloud Security."

What is our primary use case?

We use SentinelOne Singularity Cloud Security to identify cloud security misconfigurations, ensuring compliance with Cloud Security Posture Management and Cloud Workload Protection Platform best practices, as well as relevant regulations in India. We also integrate SentinelOne Singularity Cloud Security with our GitHub repositories that store our hard-coded secrets.

How has it helped my organization?

We renewed our contract with SentinelOne Singularity Cloud Security for another year because it's extremely easy to use. The user-friendly UI, along with its integration with Jira and the ability to consume alerts through Slack, make it a valuable tool for our team.

Evidence-based reporting facilitates addressing complaints related to mandatory controls. SentinelOne Singularity Cloud Security offers an option for high-alert items to be kept publicly available if we're confident we have appropriate controls implemented.

SentinelOne Singularity Cloud Security's agentless vulnerability scanning has identified a significant number of vulnerabilities.

SentinelOne Singularity Cloud Security's evidence-based reporting, particularly its proof of exploitability, is highly valuable. For example, their recommendations significantly reduce investigation time and allow us to easily research vulnerabilities using tags. This targeted approach helps stakeholders prioritize and address critical vulnerabilities efficiently through the dashboard.

We utilize the offensive security engine, but fortunately, it doesn't detect many vulnerabilities. It primarily identifies publicly known patch versions and the exposure of the SMTP service. On the other hand, I would rate the ASM functionality an eight out of ten.

IaC scanning has been effective in identifying code-level issues whenever infrastructure as code is scanned.

SentinelOne Singularity Cloud Security automatically populates and maps our network, identifying any misconfigurations within the first two hours of deployment.

It has reduced false positives by around 90 percent.

Our mean time to detection has been improved, especially for critical areas. Our mean time to remediation has been improved as well.

SentinelOne Singularity Cloud Security has improved our risk posture by providing visibility into our cloud infrastructure.

SentinelOne Singularity Cloud Security improved the collaboration between the cloud security application developers and the app security team.

It helped our developers save time.

What is most valuable?

SentinelOne Singularity Cloud Security offers an intuitive user interface that lets us navigate quickly and easily. Additionally, its identification feature allows us to customize rules and configurations in the cloud.

IaS scanning identifies misconfigured code within GitHub repositories. This represents a "shift left" approach to security.

What needs improvement?

Customized queries should be made easier to improve SentinelOne Singularity Cloud Security. 

For how long have I used the solution?

I have been using SentinelOne Singularity Cloud Security for one and a half years.

What do I think about the stability of the solution?

While SentinelOne Singularity Cloud Security is stable for around 90 percent of the time, there are occasional glitches in the UI. However, as a security tool, our primary focus is on the results it delivers, rather than the aesthetics of the dashboards themselves.

What do I think about the scalability of the solution?

Scaling SentinelOne Singularity Cloud Security is easy. We recently integrated with AWS and it went well.

How are customer service and support?

We regularly contact the technical support team about some UI glitches. We provide them with feedback on these glitches regularly. Additionally, we would like to see some new features added to Jira when creating tickets. We've also been in touch with the technical support team about this.

The technical support team's responses are good and have been improving.

We've noticed a decline in their response times lately. This could be due to the recent acquisition of SentinelOne Singularity Cloud Security by SentinelOne. Previously, their response times were much faster.

Enhanced threat management with real-time protection and evidence-based reporting
Pros and Cons
  • "Cloud Native Security's evidence-based reporting allows us to prioritize issues by understanding their impact, helping us resolve the most important problems first."
  • "SentinelOne Singularity Cloud Security could be improved with easier integrations to the Singularity Data Lake, particularly for various vendors."

What is our primary use case?

Singularity Cloud Security helps my organization achieve its goals by providing protection and cloud security posture management for our AWS organization. It offers detailed visibility into any misconfigurations, threats, or other items that come through from the AWS services, and enables my engineers to easily find and get information on how to triage those items.

How has it helped my organization?

SentinelOne has enabled us to identify and address misconfigurations more efficiently by streamlining the research and remediation process.

Singularity Cloud Security has significantly improved our risk management by providing clear visualization of threats, validating their severity, and prioritizing them. This allows us to efficiently allocate resources, strengthen our security posture, and minimize risk.

Cloud security has significantly reduced irrelevant alerts by effectively analyzing potential threats and determining their validity, a capability unmatched by any other product we've used.

Singularity Cloud Security has significantly reduced false positives by filtering out thousands of alerts triggered by offensive security tests and application configuration validation, resulting in a more manageable number of alerts requiring attention.

Singularity Cloud Security has improved incident response by integrating directly with our notification and task management services. This allows us to receive immediate notifications of critical misconfigurations or vulnerabilities and automatically generate service tickets for remediation.

Singularity Cloud Security utilizes push-based notifications to instantly detect misconfigurations and provide immediate alerts through integrated services, significantly reducing the mean time to detection compared to traditional polling-based methods.

Singularity Cloud Security has reduced our mean time to respond because its direct integration with our notification services allows for immediate attention to issues.

SentinelOne has improved our organization's regulatory compliance by providing insights into misconfigurations and issues before they impact our production environment. This proactive approach ensures consistent compliance with both regulatory standards and client expectations.

Cloud Native Security's evidence-based reporting allows for issue prioritization by determining their impact, enabling efficient time allocation to resolve the most critical problems first.

Cloud Workload Security's real-time threat protection safeguards our workloads, providing visibility into anomalies and threats, and automatically remediating them at a speed unattainable through manual intervention. This automation frees my team from time-consuming investigations and remediation, allowing them to focus on other critical tasks while ensuring our services remain actively protected.

The introduction of Purple AI by SentinelOne enhances our cybersecurity strategy by empowering engineers to proactively address security issues. This distributed approach allows engineers to triage, identify, and resolve problems within their own teams, reducing reliance on the SecOps team for all security tasks. By shifting responsibility leftward to the engineers directly accountable for specific components, we foster a more efficient and responsive security posture.

For how long have I used the solution?

I have been using SentinelOne Singularity Cloud Security for three months.

How are customer service and support?

The most important aspect of the evaluation process was the support and responsiveness of the SentinelOne team, because great products alone cannot meet all needs. Ultimately, having a reliable team ready and willing to assist with any issues is essential.

How would you rate customer service and support?

Positive

Which solution did I use previously and why did I switch?

We had an existing CNAP solution for about three years. While functional, it generated a lot of false positives and required extensive manual review. Additionally, it lacked useful integration with our other vendors and partners, and overall, felt somewhat outdated.

What's my experience with pricing, setup cost, and licensing?

SentinelOne offers excellent pricing and licensing options. I was able to consolidate two security vendors into one by switching to SentinelOne, and I now pay less than I did for either of them.

As a cloud-native application operating exclusively within AWS, we procured SentinelOne through the AWS Marketplace. This partnership, facilitated through an EDP purchasing agreement, streamlines our procurement process, consolidates purchase records, and provides a discount on our AWS spending.

Which other solutions did I evaluate?

We did a proof of value with SentinelOne, reviewing and validating all the products we are currently using to determine their viability compared to our current vendors and ultimately make the decision to move forward with SentinelOne as our new product vendor.

Prior to evaluating SentinelOne as a CNAP vendor, we faced significant challenges with our existing vendors, primarily large organizations that were slow to update their products and meet our needs. However, our partnership with SentinelOne has been markedly different. Their leadership team demonstrates a strong commitment to customer success, fostering a culture of direct collaboration and continuous innovation, which aligns perfectly with our requirements for a partner.

What other advice do I have?

I would rate SentinelOne Singularity Cloud Security nine out of ten.

The partnership between SentinelOne and AWS, particularly the Singularity Cloud integrations, provides streamlined access to actionable information from AWS.

I would tell anybody considering Singularity Cloud Security to absolutely proceed. SentinelOne has been phenomenal to work with, and I am looking forward to a continued partnership as they innovate and integrate AI, consistently rolling out new features.

Gives us better visibility into our resources and enables faster resolution
Pros and Cons
  • "Our organization is growing steadily, so our infrastructure is expanding, and we're managing more technical resources. Singularity Cloud Security helps us track our resources so that we don't get lost in the overwhelming volume of things and ensures we follow best practices. The solution gives us better visibility into our resources and enables faster resolution."
  • "I would like to see the map feature improve. It's good, but it isn't fully developed. It lets us use custom resources and policies but does not allow us to perform some actions. I would also like more custom integration and runtime security for Kubernetes."

What is our primary use case?

We use Singularity Cloud Security to monitor our infrastructure and ensure it meets all security and compliance standards. The solution helps us maintain and strengthen our security posture. Singularity covers our AWS environment, Kubernetes clusters, and some of our GitHub repositories.

How has it helped my organization?

Our organization is growing steadily, so our infrastructure is expanding, and we're managing more technical resources. Singularity Cloud Security helps us track our resources so that we don't get lost in the overwhelming volume of things and ensures we follow best practices. The solution gives us better visibility into our resources and enables faster resolution. 

Another advantage of Singularity is compliance. I work in the payments industry, where regulations are strict.  Maintaining everything and ensuring all the resources meet compliance standards is challenging, but Singularity Cloud Security enables us to do that while saving a lot of time. 

Singularity has helped us reduce false positives, but it has also introduced some. Still, it's significantly less than many of the other tools we use. If we deal with fewer false positives, the technicians have more bandwidth to work on real issues. We don't need to spend time on the analysis and can focus on fixing the vulnerabilities and ensuring compliance. 

The solution has improved our security posture considerably. In the finance industry, we can't function if we aren't compliant. The better our security posture is, the more compliant we are. By reducing vulnerabilities, we have eliminated risk factors in our systems.

Our remediation time is shorter. It's easier to identify vulnerabilities. We don't need to do much analysis before fixing vulnerabilities. About 90 percent of the time, we can identify the correct problem instantly and begin remedying the finding. It has saved a lot of time. It takes us only one or two days to remedy critical issues, whereas it previously took two weeks. Our mean detection time has dropped from about a week to one or two days.

The solution has given us a lot of insight into cloud security. It shows us some best practices that many people in the company do not know. Singularity finds those weak spots and educates us on the latest best practices to follow. The next time we deploy changes to our infrastructure, we change our policies and designs based on the recommendations. 

What is most valuable?

Singularity Cloud Security's UI is clean, simple, and easy to use. When I started using it, I found it easy to learn what things are. Everything is explained in detail. It's always up to date with the latest technologies, such as AWS Kubernetes. They keep on top of trends with new features and updates.

The solution has a mapping feature that allows me to write my own queries and better understand my resources. It also offers some help with security controls on their end, suggesting best practices that you can use to write custom queries or standards. We have the flexibility to customize our infrastructure based on our needs. 

Singularity's evidence-based reporting rates my alerts so I can see which ones to prioritize and identify the critical vulnerabilities. It provides a highly detailed description of each vulnerability and the resolution steps. I can triage all the findings from one place and apply different filters based on my preferences.

The offensive security engine is another major feature. We use it for our infrastructure and machines to see if we have an exposure or liability. It takes some time, but the vulnerability reports are highly accurate. It saves us some time because we don't need to verify all the vulnerabilities. We just have to go fix them.

What needs improvement?

The detection time could be better. It takes a long time to scan. I'm not sure how long other tools take for the same amount of scanning, so I cannot compare it with other tools, but it takes us half a day to a full day to complete the scan. I want to get the reports faster so we can start fixing the problems. 

The proof of exploitability is another area for improvement. While I have all the information to troubleshoot the problem, it isn't detailed enough for an administrator. It has sufficient information for a general user, but an administrator would like to know all the ins and outs of the vulnerabilities that have been reported. 

I would like to see the map feature improve. It's good, but it isn't fully developed. It lets us use custom resources and policies but does not allow us to perform some actions. I would also like more custom integration and runtime security for Kubernetes.

For how long have I used the solution?

We have used Singularity Cloud Security for about eight months. 

What do I think about the stability of the solution?

I haven't seen any major stability problems. There are some minor issues but they are rare. Overall, it has been a smooth experience.

What do I think about the scalability of the solution?

Singularity is scalable. It has one UI that can be integrated easily with multiple backends, so we have all the data in one place and we can do whatever we want with it. 

How are customer service and support?

I rate SentinelOne support eight out of 10. Their support team is proactive. It has been a while since I connected with them. They helped me with all my questions quickly. It was an excellent experience. 

How would you rate customer service and support?

Positive

Which solution did I use previously and why did I switch?

I have worked on other infrastructure-as-code tools and other tools for various functions that Singularity performs, such an AWS Inspector, but now we use Singularity for most of it. 

How was the initial setup?

The initial setup is not a very complex process. Because of the large number of resources, we have so many places where we need to integrate the solution repeatedly. It's easy to set up new places or add integrations. The initial setup took two to four weeks. That was how long it took to go back and forth and cover everything. 

We did a PoC first, which wasn't very hard. Our deployment team consisted of three or four people. The vendor team was very helpful when they deployed everything on our infrastructure. They helped us set up all the necessary permissions. 

What was our ROI?

The return on investment has been good. Singularity offers a lot of flexibility to focus on different aspects because it gives us a lot of information and helps us maintain the observability of all our resources. That is something that we value because of the sheer volume of resources we have. We couldn't do that manually or using some other tools. 

What other advice do I have?

I rate SentinelOne Singularity seven out of 10. It's a solid product and I recommend checking it out. It has some excellent features, observability, metrics, etc. It's very cool.
