We use SentinelOne Singularity Identity to end AD credential misuse when working from home. We wanted to make sure that our environment was secure and place any defection-based endpoints on lockdown. The solution ensured that we were able to detect AD attacks and steer attackers away. We also wanted to make sure we were hiding our local data.
We're a lot more secure with SentinelOne Singularity Identity. We're more confident that we're going to be on top of any threats, and we'll get alerted right away. Anytime a password expires, my coworker sets up a report. We're really on top of all our user AD accounts.
I was recently able to customize the UI, including the filters, based on my use case. Having high visibility into all of our network concerns and a customizable UI are the most valuable features. The solution only requires one reboot to finish the installation. The solution's real-time protection is also really beneficial for us.
The last time I called to receive support, it wasn't as fast as I wanted. The resolution turnaround from SentinelOne Singularity Identity's support should be improved.
I have been working with SentinelOne Singularity Identity since February 2022.
I found SentinelOne Singularity Identity a lot more friendly in terms of performance. The solution shows no lagging, and it works very well.
SentinelOne Singularity Identity has the ability to work with different operating systems devices.
I rate SentinelOne Singularity Identity's scalability an eight out of ten.
We raised a support case with the solution's technical support team. We called the support team and tried to get help to run a report to see which devices were actually utilizing SentinelOne. We also had another report question about how we could take a look at AD accounts with expired passwords.
The support agent on the other line didn't seem very familiar with the product, and that was pretty much it. When they told us they would get back to us with more information, it took a while. They got back to us three weeks later when we had already figured it out on our own.
The solution's initial setup was very straightforward.
I was involved in the solution's deployment in our organization. The rest of our tier two team and I worked with the trainers, implementation coordinators, and agents at SentinelOne. They walked us through the setup, which took around three to four weeks. Since we deployed on the cloud, we didn't need to set up VMs for any SentinelOne servers. We just provided access to our AD and the information they needed, like our server names. We set them up with accounts with which they could get into our AD servers, and that was it.
We have seen a return on investment with SentinelOne Singularity Identity. The comfort level, the reports we get, and our confidence in the security of our AD accounts are definitely worth the investment in the solution.
The solution barely met the budget for this project. SentinelOne could find ways to help healthcare institutes by lowering the solution's cost for hospital implementations. The pricing is a bit high.
We didn't use a different solution before SentinelOne Singularity Identity, we just had an AD. One of the reasons why we chose to go with Singularity Identity is that we moved over our Outlook Mailbox 365 accounts to the cloud. Previously, we had on-site exchange servers with the mailboxes, and we moved all those mailboxes to the cloud.
Since they're all linked with the AD credentials, we needed something a lot more secure. We moved 800 mailboxes to the cloud, and Singularity Identity helped us with that transition. We never had a product like Singularity Identity just to monitor AD.
I would tell users to book a demo first. Then, if they do decide to implement SentinelOne Singularity Identity, they should work with support or even their vendor support for the network firewall.
We had to set up a lot of exclusions on our firewall and even Windows firewalls on our AD server to ensure we weren't blocking any network traffic when a rule was added or deleted. My advice to users would be to ensure they are careful with the network firewalls when deciding to move forward with implementation.
Singularity's console provides a unified view, which works very well. We're able to monitor all of the different areas in our infrastructure. We even have the ability to run reports where we're in touch with support and our trainers from SentinelOne. They ensure that we know how to use the product and show us how to make our infrastructure more visible.
This unified view is very important for our organization. We widened the net for compromised devices to include managed and unmanaged devices. Even if our server runs a different OS, we can get a lot of actionable information related to that asset. If I have a couple of MacBooks, it doesn't really matter what the OS is. I can store that information in Sentinel. The solution really allows us to have more functionality with an active directory.
SentinelOne Singularity Identity is doing a good job of protecting identities from exploitation. Identity-based threats are one of the biggest weaknesses of malicious attacks. We get a lot of spam emails, and at the end of the day, they're just trying to get AD credentials.
SentinelOne Singularity Identity really helps improve our identity security posture. We're able to provide the team and even the managers and IT director here with real-time alerting and deception capabilities. We really trust SentinelOne Singularity Identity.
We're really happy with Singularity Identity's ability to provide visibility into our attack surface risk. The amount of information the solution allows us to get and the real-time alerts are really helpful.
Singularity Identity helped reduce our mean time to detect identity-based attacks. We have reduced the time we take to jump into servers and then run reports on our own because we've got the dashboard on a monitor in our office. We have real-time alerts right on the monitor. Anytime we see a red alert, we're on top of it. It makes monitoring a lot easier.
I would tell someone researching SentinelOne Singularity Identity that they need to do a demo with SentinelOne. There, they will be able to see the solution's pros and cons. They can see for themselves how it's a much more effective tool than Windows Defender.
If they book a demo, they will be convinced to get hold of a SentinelOne agent to look at some cost agreements and implementation. The bottom line is that SentinelOne Singularity Identity is the best anti-malware. It is a lot better than Microsoft Defender, and they would be convinced after a demo.
Overall, I rate SentinelOne Singularity Identity an eight out of ten.
