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.

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.

Great automation and real-time detection with the ability to increase productivity
Pros and Cons
  • "It's helped free up staff time so that they can work on other projects."
  • "Some of the navigation and some aspects of the portal may be a little bit confusing."

What is our primary use case?

We were looking for an XDR solution that we could deploy to all of our computers since all of our users are mostly remote, and we previously had firewalls at branch locations. When workers went somewhere else, it wouldn't provide any protection. We wanted to make sure that they had protection no matter where they went. 

How has it helped my organization?

We were trying to cover as many security bases as possible, mostly around malware. A lot of people focus on antivirus, and most of the problems that businesses face are ransomware or malware. I wanted to make sure we had something that was competitive against that.

It's improved the organization in the sense that it's taken a lot off of our plate as far as having to track down trace vulnerabilities and remediate different threats against our end users, especially when they're in different locations all the time. The product gives us peace of mind no matter where our users are. They're always going to be protected if they have the endpoint installed on their computers.

What is most valuable?

The automation is great. Not having to focus on it is helpful. The portal itself is very easy to use. The amount of granularity that can be configured is really wonderful. There are a lot of things that it can do, however, since we're a small IT team, having it able to automate and remediate different flaws and things like that is very, very helpful.

The real-time detection and response capabilities are excellent. That's pretty much what sold us on it. We had that done in the demo, and we were shown how ransomware can be immediately stopped in real-time. That was huge.

Its automated remediation is useful for us. As a small IT team, that's something that we needed. We don't have time to be able to go in and track down and investigate every time there's a vulnerability. Being able to have it auto-remediate for us and being able to see what's going on is extremely helpful.

The historical data record provided by the product is good. We've seen a few vulnerabilities come through, and it has shown us everything we need to see. I have a somewhat limited experience with the small amount of vulnerabilities we've seen. That said, it seemed to show us everything that we needed to see. It was very good.

It has helped to reduce our organization's mean time to detect by four or five hours. It could be even more, depending on what the vulnerability is. It's at least several hours at this point. The same is true with our organization's mean time to remediate. 

It's helped free up staff time so that they can work on other projects. We're a very small IT team and most of us do everything and it's helped reduce our workload. On average it has likely saved two to three hours a day.

It's also positively affected productivity. Most security solutions can sometimes hold up files from being downloaded and things like that. So far, it's been great. It's been completely transparent to our end users as far as I know. And that those things that it has remediated have been done on the back end and it alerted us admins so as to not affect end users.

The interoperability with third-party solutions has been fine so far. 

What needs improvement?

Some of the navigation and some aspects of the portal may be a little bit confusing. That could honestly be just due to the fact that we're not used to it yet. 

We just have the cloud-based version. The complete version has some extra deep-dive stuff. There are some features that we don't have or that I would like to have in there, however, we just aren't able to afford that at this point.

For how long have I used the solution?

I've used the solution for probably two months at this point. We are fairly new to it.

What do I think about the stability of the solution?

The solution has been nothing but stable. 

What do I think about the scalability of the solution?

The product is deployed across our company and we have 450 users coast to coast. Most of our remote workers are based out of Houston.

It is scalable. As soon as we need to add somebody, we just add them to NinjaOne, and then we have a script set up where it automatically deploys and adds them to whichever group we need. 

We're in a high-turnover industry. It's easy to add or remove people, especially with NinjaOne.

How are customer service and support?

I have yet to use technical support. 

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

We didn't use an XDR solution. We used SonicWall firewalls and we had a Check Point antivirus for a short time, however, Check Point was very intrusive, and it was difficult to work with.

With this product, everything is centralized. We don't have to go to more than one place to detect or figure out what's going on.

How was the initial setup?

I was involved in the deployment. It was straightforward. We actually used another platform called NinjaOne. The process was very smooth.

We beta-tested the solution with about ten to 15 of our users and made sure it wasn't going to interfere with anything before we pushed it out completely. After testing for a week we pushed it out to the rest of the company.

We had three staff members who managed the deployment. 

It does not require any maintenance. 

What about the implementation team?

We did not use any third parties. We simply used NinjaOne to help with the deployment. 

What was our ROI?

We have witnessed an ROI. So far, we've saved tons of time having to remediate and detect - things of that nature.

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

The pricing was competitive. The price was very, very important to us, and it came down to the price when we were doing our evaluations WatchGuard and SentinelOne. They were similarly priced. SentinelOne seems like it's more mature. It was close enough to where it was worth it to go with the SentinelOne.

Which other solutions did I evaluate?

We also evaluated WatchGuard and a few other options. With this product and WatchGuard, there were not a lot of differences. That said, we did not use both in our production environment. This product seemed to be easier to navigate and was a little more user-friendly as far as finding remediation options, and vulnerabilities. We also had an easy experience with the licensing. WatchGuard's licensing seemed unnecessarily complicated. 

What other advice do I have?

We haven't had to look into the forensic side yet. I did again see that in the demo, yet we haven't in the real world had to do that. Hopefully, we won't have to for a very long time. Therefore, I don't have much experience with that yet.

I'd ask someone who doesn't think that they need a workload protection platform if they have a continuous security monitoring solution in place if whatever they have detects and remediates in real-time. I'd be surprised if there was something else out there that can do what this solution does for cheaper. 

It supports our ability to innovate. We don't have to worry about security aspects. We really get a chance to focus on other things. That's nice for a small department like ours. 

I'd rate the solution nine out of ten. It's been a great fit for our company. There are other solutions out there. This solution, however, is hard to beat.

Which deployment model are you using for this solution?

Public 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?

Amazon Web Services (AWS)

It gives you a consolidated view of compliance and vulnerabilities
Pros and Cons
  • "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."
  • "When you find a vulnerability and resolve it, the same issue will not occur again. I want SentinelOne Singularity Cloud Security to block the same vulnerability from appearing again. I want something like a playbook where the steps that we take to resolve an issue are repeated when that issue happens again."

What is our primary use case?

We use SentinelOne Singularity Cloud Security to secure our IT infrastructure and fix vulnerabilities. For example, it tells us if our resources have been inappropriately made public. We provision our infrastructure on AWS and GitHub. SentinelOne Singularity Cloud Security finds vulnerabilities across our entire network and secrets in our GitHub repositories. It also helps us manage our cloud configurations and security groups. 

SentinelOne Singularity Cloud Security is integrated with Metabolic, Opsgenie, and Slack for notifications. It's also integrated with our security team. They are using a script to correlate the data from SysTrack. 

How has it helped my organization?

When I joined the organization, we didn't have this kind of security tool in our infrastructure. SentinelOne Singularity Cloud Security helps us secure any resources that were mistakenly made public and other vulnerabilities. Initially, we were primarily focused on projects, not on the security side, but we were dealing with some system vulnerabilities that hackers could exploit, like publicly accessible resources. The detection is highly granular. It gives you small vulnerabilities and very new types. 

The SentinelOne Singularity Cloud Security team will help you reduce false positives quickly. When we first used SentinelOne Singularity Cloud Security, false positives were high, so we contacted the team. They did some testing and modifications, and the problem was solved in one or two days. 

The mean detection time has drastically reduced. The detection time varies depending on what we're scanning. When we're scanning GitHub, it takes 7 to 10 minutes. On the cloud platforms, it depends on resource availability. It takes 10 minutes on the high end, but the mean is about 1 or 2. Overall, it has been reduced by about 10 percent. 

The remediation time is up to us. SentinelOne Singularity Cloud Security just detects it, but it gives us an assessment and recommendations, making it easier to resolve. When we fix a vulnerability for a particular resource, the issue will not occur again. 

What is most valuable?

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. Using SentinelOne Singularity Cloud Security's evidence-based reporting, we can rank the severity of issues as critical, high, medium, etc. Having the ability to prioritize security issues is crucial for any organization. 

One good thing about SentinelOne Singularity Cloud Security is that it gives you a consolidated view of compliance and vulnerabilities. We can follow SentinelOne Singularity Cloud Security's guidance and comply with those use cases. When you get an alert, they explain how to resolve those issues. 

The user interface is excellent because we see everything in a single panel and can manage all the operations from one portal. It's integrated with Slack, so we can coordinate on the open tickets. We can also mute notifications. The interface is straightforward and easy to use. Anyone can use it.

The offensive security engine is a helpful feature in cases like when a developer leaves some API element exposed, and we can view the potential exploit path. It's helpful when we are deploying any AWS account or service because all our systems depend on AWS.  When the service is initially deployed, we can see what happens and get all the details about anything that depends on it. 

What needs improvement?

When you find a vulnerability and resolve it, the same issue will not occur again. I want SentinelOne Singularity Cloud Security to block the same vulnerability from appearing again. I want something like a playbook where the steps that we take to resolve an issue are repeated when that issue happens again. 

For how long have I used the solution?

We have used SentinelOne Singularity Cloud Security for more than 2 years.

What do I think about the stability of the solution?

I rate SentinelOne Singularity Cloud Security 9 out of 10 for stability. We've never had any glitches. 

What do I think about the scalability of the solution?

We've had no issues with scalability. We've onboarded about 6 or 7. There is no digital investment. You can integrate multiple accounts from various providers. 

How are customer service and support?

The support team was valuable during the initial stages. SentinelOne Singularity Cloud Security contacted us every three weeks. They checked our infrastructure and reviewed all the issues that we were incorporating into the system. They took direct responsibility for the system and could solve queries quickly.

How would you rate customer service and support?

Positive

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

Previously, we were using the native tools of each cloud provider. For example, we used GuardDuty on the AWS.

How was the initial setup?

Deploying SentinelOne Singularity Cloud Security is straightforward. You can onboard new AWS accounts in five to 10 minutes, and it will start scanning very quickly. They give you a script to run on AWS. You can enroll your accounts based on the template, and it starts collecting data. We onboarded six or seven accounts. It hardly took any time. It's a SaaS solution so we don't need to maintain it. We only need to do the onboarding. 

What other advice do I have?

I rate SentinelOne Singularity Cloud Security 7 out of 10. SentinelOne Singularity Cloud Security isn't a unique solution. Other solutions have the same features, but I like SentinelOne Singularity Cloud Security because it's simpler to use. It doesn't require any maintenance and the scalability is good. However, I think other solutions can give the same level of detail and insight. 

Which deployment model are you using for this solution?

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.

How would you rate customer service and support?

Positive

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


How was the initial setup?

The initial deployment was straightforward.

Deploying SentinelOne Singularity Cloud Security is a quick process that involves creating a dedicated service account, granting the necessary roles to the service account, and attaching the service account to SentinelOne Singularity Cloud Security.

The total deployment time took around 15 minutes.

What about the implementation team?

The implementation was completed in-house.

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

The features included in SentinelOne Singularity Cloud Security justify its price point. The agent-level monitoring for Kubernetes clusters is particularly valuable and could support a modest price increase.

Which other solutions did I evaluate?

Our evaluation of Prisma Cloud and Trend Micro on an open-source platform for identifying misconfigurations yielded a high number of false positives, limiting its effectiveness. We chose SentinelOne Singularity Cloud Security based on the price and the ease of use.

The setup and cleanup need to be done first to get things organized. This makes SentinelOne Singularity Cloud Security a much easier option than the other products we evaluated, which were all very complex. So, we won't be jumping straight to CWP. Instead, we'll focus on securing our perimeter. We believe SentinelOne Singularity Cloud Security can solve this issue, and the support we received during the proof of concept was also very positive. Considering all these factors, we decided to go with SentinelOne Singularity Cloud Security. 

What other advice do I have?

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

SentinelOne Singularity Cloud Security does not require maintenance.

It is easy to use, but it works best when you have established organizational practices in place. If you feel this is critical, don't hesitate to address it directly. Integrating SentinelOne Singularity Cloud Security is straightforward, so there's no need to worry about that. It's a ready-made solution that can be integrated with just a click. You can then address the specific issues you find most important. Ideally, integrate all your relevant sources during onboarding, such as GitHub or any cloud accounts you use. This ensures you capture everything from the start and get the best possible results.

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.

It saves us time while improving security and compliance
Pros and Cons
  • "It saves time, makes your environment more secure, and improves compliance. SentinelOne Singularity Cloud Security helps with audits, ensuring that you are following best practices for cloud security. You don't need to be an expert to use it and improve your security."
  • "When we get a new finding from SentinelOne Singularity Cloud Security, I wish we could get an alert in the console, so we can work on it before we see it in the report. It would be very useful for the team that is actively working on the SentinelOne Singularity Cloud Security platform, so we can close the issue the same day before it appears in the daily report."

What is our primary use case?

We use SentinelOne Singularity Cloud Security to check for misconfigurations and vulnerabilities in new infrastructure or applications we deploy on AWS. All of our accounts are integrated. When we deploy new services, it highlights any misconfiguration or lack of encryption. We return to our applications and try to fix the issues immediately. The company has about 25 SentinelOne Singularity Cloud Security users across three teams and five cloud environments, including production. SentinelOne Singularity Cloud Security covers all five. 

How has it helped my organization?

SentinelOne Singularity Cloud Security saves us time finding misconfigurations and encryption issues. It helps us troubleshoot why data is not encrypted or why it's sitting idle for a long time. We previously had a separate team investigate the environment for security issues, like public IPs or anything like that. SentinelOne Singularity Cloud Security saves us time equivalent to a whole team. It reduces the time spent on these tasks by about 30 percent. It has reduced our remediation time by around 10 percent.

Another benefit is security compliance. It gives us the security reports, and we implement the recommendations according to best practices provided by the team. We were around 60 percent compliant when we started. Our SentinelOne Singularity Cloud Security security compliance score is now 99.4 percent. 

Recently, we were migrating a database from on-prem to AWS. After we successfully migrated it, SentinelOne Singularity Cloud Security discovered that it was using default ports and that no audit or error logs were enabled. It highlighted that issue within 30 minutes. Before we went live, we reconfigured all the databases, and SentinelOne Singularity Cloud Security helped us. 

What is most valuable?

The most valuable feature is SentinelOne Singularity Cloud Security's feedback about the severity and impact of a misconfiguration and the best practices for resolving it. It's helpful to anyone who's using the tool. Even if you're unfamiliar with the issue, SentinelOne Singularity Cloud Security will give you a detailed description of everything that went wrong and how to fix it. 

If your account is integrated, SentinelOne Singularity Cloud Security's evidence-based reporting gives you an alert with the severity. Before you go live or pass it off to the other teams, so you know all the issues and misconfiguration in your infrastructure. You can fix it before passing it to the other team, and you are confident you are using the best practices. It reports weekly on the number of issues discovered and how many tickets we've closed. 

The proof of exploitability is critical. There are a few scenarios where I need to explain the misconfiguration to the team. Before SentinelOne Singularity Cloud Security, I had to provide the evidence and screenshots to demonstrate the misconfiguration on our end, but now SentinelOne Singularity Cloud Security takes care of all that, saving me time. As someone leading a team, I spend half as much time on these tasks.  

It separates the issues, dividing cloud-based misconfigurations from container-based or web-based ones, so we can forward them to the appropriate team. This separation is required for organizations that have multiple teams.

SentinelOne Singularity Cloud Security is easy to use. After one login, you can understand everything. The console UI is very user-friendly.

What needs improvement?

When we get a new finding from SentinelOne Singularity Cloud Security, I wish we could get an alert in the console, so we can work on it before we see it in the report. It would be very useful for the team that is actively working on the SentinelOne Singularity Cloud Security platform, so we can close the issue the same day before it appears in the daily report.

For how long have I used the solution?

We have used SentinelOne Singularity Cloud Security for nearly 3 years. 

What do I think about the stability of the solution?

I rate SentinelOne Singularity Cloud Security 9 out of 10 for stability. 

What do I think about the scalability of the solution?

I rate SentinelOne Singularity Cloud Security 9 out of 10 for scalability. 

How are customer service and support?

I rate SentinelOne Singularity Cloud Security support 8 out of 10. 

How would you rate customer service and support?

Positive

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

Before SentinelOne Singularity Cloud Security, we were using AWS GuardDuty. We adopted SentinelOne Singularity Cloud Security because we established a dedicated team for security compliance. 

How was the initial setup?

SentinelOne Singularity Cloud Security is a cloud-based platform, and the setup was pretty straightforward. They provided all the necessary documentation, and we had a call with the SentinelOne Singularity Cloud Security team to help us get started. The deployment was fast—it took less than 20 minutes. Four people were involved, including the SentinelOne Singularity Cloud Security team. After deployment, it requires no maintenance. It's good to go once you set it up. 

What was our ROI?

You can expect a decent return on investment from SentinelOne Singularity Cloud Security. It's better to use tools like SentinelOne Singularity Cloud Security to improve security and compliance. I estimate the ROI is around 25 percent. 

What other advice do I have?

I rate SentinelOne Singularity Cloud Security 9 out of 10. I would recommend SentinelOne Singularity Cloud Security to anyone. It saves time, makes your environment more secure, and improves compliance. SentinelOne Singularity Cloud Security helps with audits, ensuring that you are following best practices for cloud security. You don't need to be an expert to use it and improve your security.

Helps free up SOC staff to work on other projects, detect threats and protect our assets
Pros and Cons
  • "Our previous product took a lot of man hours to manage. Once we got Singularity Cloud Workload Security, it freed up our time to work on other tasks."
  • "It would be really helpful if the solution improves its agent deployment process."

How has it helped my organization?

Singularity Cloud Workload Security gave us the visibility we needed and freed up time to do other tasks. It narrows down the false positives that we got with the previous solution.

What is most valuable?

We use Singularity Cloud Workload Security to detect threats and protect our assets. We look at the threats that come in and whether they're being blocked. We use Singularity Cloud Workload Security as an anti-malware threat management product.

Our previous product took a lot of man hours to manage. Once we got Singularity Cloud Workload Security, it freed up our time to work on other tasks.

What needs improvement?

We had a couple of issues with the solution's deployment. We had to deploy the agent, and sometimes there were issues. It feels like we're battling a version of the software when we have to deploy an agent over another agent. It would be really helpful if the solution improves its agent deployment process.

For how long have I used the solution?

I have been using Singularity Cloud Workload Security for over a year.

What do I think about the stability of the solution?

I haven't heard from our team about any stability issues with Singularity Cloud Workload Security. Singularity Cloud Workload Security is more stable than our previous solution.

What do I think about the scalability of the solution?

Singularity Cloud Workload Security handles anything we throw at it. The scalability is good.

How are customer service and support?

When we have an issue, an online engineer from their group helps us resolve it within an hour or two. I haven't heard anything negative about the solution's support from our team.

How would you rate customer service and support?

Positive

How was the initial setup?

I was involved in the selection and the proof of concept process. I wasn't on the call for the installation, but I overheard our two engineers involved in the solution's installation. The solution's deployment was pretty quick, and they installed it in one day.

What about the implementation team?

We implemented the solution with an in-house team.

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

Singularity Cloud Workload Security's licensing and price were cheaper than the other solutions we looked at. One product was a little bit cheaper, but its functionality and the overall product weren't as good as Singularity Cloud Workload Security. One of the vendors' prices was almost double what we would get thus far. Talking to their engineer and salesperson put our minds at ease when we got it. We knew they would be there for support, and they have been really good.

What other advice do I have?

I'd ask users to take a good look at Singularity Cloud Workload Security because it brings a lot of value to the table. For its price, the solution does a good job compared to some other solutions.

Singularity Cloud Workload Security’s automated remediation works great.

The solution’s real-time detection and response capabilities work great for us. It frees up time, unlike our previous solution, where we had a lot of false positives. 

It's granular, and you can take a deeper dive into something if you need to. You can analyze and get a verdict. It's easier to narrow it down and pinpoint it with more detail.

The solution helped reduce our organization’s mean time to detect. Singularity Cloud Workload Security is quicker than our previous solution. We are a small group of just five people, and we have to do instantaneous detection to stop things from coming in quickly. We like that part a lot.

The solution helped reduce our organization’s mean time to remediate. It lets us analyze an incident, report the status quicker, and escalate it quicker than our previous solution.

Singularity Cloud Workload Security helped free up SOC staff to work on other projects. It probably freed up 10 to 15 hours a week. Before, we spent a couple of hours a day sifting through events and trying to see if they were false positives. The solution freed up a lot of time.

We have seen an impact on our organization's productivity using Singularity Cloud Workload Security. With the freed-up time, we're able to do a lot of other work. We use other products and look at phishing emails. It frees up our time to study more than we did in the past.

I would have users look at their visibility across their environment. The solution's quick response to threats, ability to act on them, automated incident response, and forensic investigation capabilities are really good. The solution provides you with 24/7 threat monitoring detection.

We work eight hours a day when we have someone on call. It's nice to know someone else is also looking at our events. They're there to dive in with us when we need them to help increase our team. Even though they're not on our team, they're there to help us.

Overall, I rate Singularity Cloud Workload Security a nine out of ten.
