Proactive threat insights have protected our brand and exposed hidden external attack paths
CloudSEK XVigil's best features include threat intelligence capabilities, malware logs, and information on credential breaches, along with identification of fake mobile apps that might expose our entities or claim to be authenticated as a Birlasoft application. The product also includes an SSL scanner, network scanner, and web application scanner, and is useful for safeguarding code-related repositories, especially if someone has created a GitHub repository and possibly forgot to secure it. Additional features that stand out are the social media discussion monitoring provided, keeping us informed about positive and negative happenings related to brand protection, as well as data leak protection monitoring and infrastructure threat-related protection. They offer deep and dark web monitoring, which is a huge benefit for us, making it a good product. CloudSEK XVigil has positively impacted our organization by providing good features. While investigating incidents, it delivers a brief summary of what is happening in a short term with the help of AI-enabled features. CloudSEK XVigil has great capabilities around the portal, and they help us significantly.

Provides early detection of imminent attacks, and speeds up addressing of vulnerabilities internally because it makes them real
They're a newer company, so they're working on their UI a lot. Sometimes the UI is a little glitchy. They're working on different things and making efforts, so that's totally forgivable. But regarding their scraping abilities, things could be solidified. There are definitely improvements that could be made on the specificity for setting certain queries. Step-by-step videos would be useful, instead of a book of instructions, because they're a new tool. They're now getting to the point where video training would be useful, or even live training. More digestible video instructions or opportunities for training, so that you actually learn hands-on, would help.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"CloudSEK XVigil has positively impacted my organization by automating processes that were previously manual, which we struggled with due to our large network, and since integrating CloudSEK XVigil, it has dramatically changed our workflow and reduced the manpower needed."
"CloudSEK XVigil's threat intelligence is advanced compared to other solutions I have seen or used, and no other tool provides the solutions CloudSEK XVigil does, making it a great product."
"To be diligent for the customer, we usually go into Cybersixgill Investigative Portal to analyze and search things. The solution tells us the reputation of cyber threat actors. So, if someone has a reputation of one, it is a really bad idea to care about what that person is saying. However, if you find someone with a reputation of nine, then there is a high probability that we need to address the problem. You can get information about these type of actors in Cybersixgill Investigative Portal. They have a huge collection, which is like having the rules/goals of the dark web and deep web without having to go there. Our analysts avoid going dark web because they have Cybersixgill Investigative Portal and can get the news from their browser, searching wherever they want."
"The advanced analysis has made our security operations more efficient. It has also potentially given us quicker access to data that we might not have otherwise located."
"They also provide some of the greatest notification capabilities. I put in a customer's company name and domain names, or sometimes I put in their IP addresses as a keyword. Once Sixgill collects information that includes those keywords, they then provide us email notifications. That means we can catch information related to our customers as soon as possible."
"The solution’s approach of using limited open source intelligence and focusing, instead, on the Deep Web and Dark Web is what seals the deal. That is why I like them. I have other tools that I can aggregate all the open source intelligence from. I value Cybersixgill because it provides access to things that no one else does."
 

Cons

"CloudSEK XVigil can be improved by focusing more on vulnerabilities like open redirection, broken access control, and OWASP Top 10, which need to be enhanced and made more accurate."
"The breadth of access to data is good, but there are gaps. More data would be my suggestion because the platform is good and I have no complaints about the system. I think it is just a case of always trying to get more data sources."
"We need real-time updated information. If we could have this, it would be amazing. For example, if someone was posting something, then ten second later, it was on the platform. Sometimes, it takes a minute or hours right now, depending on the forum."
"Sixgill has strong capabilities based on search queries, but there is some difficulty in using Sixgill. Their querying is very powerful but it can be difficult. It's not hugely complex but you need some skill to use Sixgill querying."
"Regarding their scraping abilities, things could be solidified. There are definitely improvements that could be made on the specificity for setting certain queries."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

Information not available
"The pricing is cheap compared with Recorded Future. Sixgill's cost-effectiveness is very good."
"Sometimes, Cybersixgill Investigative Portal is cheaper than its competitors."
"The pricing and licensing are good. It is expensive for us because the US dollar is quite strong compared to our dollar. Otherwise, it is quite reasonable for what it is. All the tools in the market are around the same price from my experience."
