Jacqueline Segooa - PeerSpot reviewer
Cybersecurity Governance Specialist at Suse
Centralized audits and policies have transformed how our team manages compliance workflows
At the moment, integrating Drata with other AIs would be beneficial. I am not too sure if it is something that can be done or if it is possible, but I am not aware. Integrating it with AI where maybe with regards to evidence collection, I would not have to be collecting the evidence manually would be helpful. When you are managing a lot of frameworks, it is a lot of work to actually individually and manually upload all the evidence in Drata. If maybe there is an AI which can be able to automate that kind of a workflow, and obviously as human beings, we will have to do a human error check, I think it would be amazing. I am not too sure if maybe at the moment it is something that is in place and I am not aware of, but I think it would be great.Integrations within my team are managed by someone, but I do have an idea about Drata's automated control monitoring. For example, with tests, there are certain systems such as AWS that has been integrated with Drata, and it tests those systems and puts them as part of evidence. For example, data encryption at rest. We can put it a test and integrate it with AWS, and then it will automatically test the encryption in data at rest. If the test has failed, you will see it. When I log in to check all the controls that have failed, it will show on Drata that the test has failed. Then I will be able to coordinate with the relevant stakeholders and tell them that it needs to be fixed. I would like Drata to make the user interface more intuitive.
Sreeraj Mohandas - PeerSpot reviewer
Security Engineer at HashXpert
Consolidated cloud security has reduced manual work and has automated vulnerability remediation
I elaborate on my rating of SentinelOne support by mentioning that there was some time where the troubleshooting took a longer time. In fact, there were many meetings going on. The availability of the document on the internet is on a lesser side because as an engineer, I would want to know about the troubleshooting aspects of this particular tool. When I am facing a customer, I do not prefer to bring the vendor to every call and try to resolve it, as it takes months and months. It would be better to have a training session with the engineer on site to explain and train properly. This is not the case with SentinelOne, so this is the only thing I have a complaint about. I do not have any other room for improvement to suggest within SentinelOne itself. However, I would really want the AI assistant for the threat hunting part to be more accessible. They have it, but they are making it licensed, so it is a bit on the higher end.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"Overall, Drata as a tool has brought a lot of improvements within the GRC team, and having to centralize everything in one system, mapping the controls within one system, performing audits within one system, monitoring policies within one system, and doing risk management within one system is something that in GRC, speaking from a GRC perspective in cybersecurity, has been very impactful and effective within the team."
"Drata helped us publish our ISO and SOC reports, which was essential for the acquisition. The challenge now is whether Drata can scale up to meet the needs of a larger company, which already has tools like Intune to enforce laptop encryption. Drata is excellent for startups and small—to medium-sized companies but may face challenges in larger organizations with multiple environments."
"My experience with customer support was good; they were responsive, but they didn't ever get us to a solution that worked."
"Drata keeps adding new features, allowing us to build our entire InfoSec program within it. Adding new components and evidence for different audits is easy. Drata also integrates with various software, like ticketing systems, source code control, and cloud platforms, continuously pulling evidence from these integrations. Without a GRC tool with these integrations, we used to gather evidence from different software during audits manually. Drata has a significant impact on our security posture management. Previously, Drata had features for security posture management, primarily through integration with AWS. For example, it would scan AWS for specific security requirements, like ensuring all S3 buckets are private. It will be reported on the Drata platform if it finds a public bucket. Recently, Drata introduced a new feature that uses an infrastructure-as-code approach. This feature detects issues and provides AI-generated suggestions for fixing them. If an organization uses infrastructure-as-code solutions like Terraform, Drata will suggest changes to the Terraform code to address the issues. You can then review and apply these changes to fix the problems. This is particularly useful when dealing with many topics, as it helps automate and speed up the process of implementing fixes. However, this AI-generated code feature is part of Drata’s upsell options. The basic version of Drata offers limited capabilities compared to the advanced features available with a paid upgrade. Even without this new feature, Drata's security posture management is valuable, as it scans cloud environments for deviations from defined security baselines. Many tools offer similar capabilities, but Drata’s new feature that translates issues into actionable fixes is a notable advancement. This benefits teams with the capability and resources to use this tool effectively."
"Drata offers APIs for every clause so that it can integrate into various platforms."
"Drata helps eliminate evidence gathering and makes assigning different activities to different team members easier, simplifying compliance and audit processes. In Pennsylvania, we're putting in thousands of hours. Drata improves our security posture by reducing extra work, allowing us to focus on other security directives. I like the control editing and task management features the most. It's easy to use, but it's also easy for people to think they don't need security experts if they have it."
"The way the tool's controls are linked to the framework, specifically with SAST and HIPAA frameworks or any other frameworks, is really good."
"The product is 100 percent friendly to use."
"They're responsive to feature requests. If I suggest a feature for Prisma, I will need to wait until the next release on their roadmap. Cloud Native Security will add it right away."
"Cloud Native Security's most valuable features include cloud misconfiguration detection and remediation, compliance monitoring, a robust authentication security engine, and cloud threat detection and response capabilities."
"With SentinelOne Singularity Cloud Security, it's easy to onboard new accounts."
"It is advantageous in terms of time-saving and cost reduction."
"SentinelOne's behaviour analytics are valuable because they detect anomalies and malicious behaviour that signature-based solutions might miss."
"The user-friendly dashboard offers both convenience and security by providing quick access to solutions and keeping us informed of potential threats."
"I can say it is one of the best user interfaces I have used, and it is very user-friendly."
"The best features in SentinelOne Singularity Cloud Security are that it is user friendly and its user interface is very easy to understand."
 

Cons

"The solution is quite costly."
"There was one instance where our auditors could not access the Audit Hub in Drata, and it was not really something that was wrong from our company side."
"Drata has impacted our organization negatively, as it made the whole compliance process more complicated and cost me significant time."
"The thing with Drata is you cannot open multiple tabs on the same interface or the same desktop,"
"In terms of improvements, I'd suggest better marketing since the industry tends to market these tools as security experts, which isn't true."
"One of the challenges with Drata is that if you're paying for a subscription to ISO 27001, you must undergo a risk assessment. You should have access to all necessary modules on the platform to achieve your compliance posture and certification."
"The existing features of Drata are already extensive and costly to integrate."
"There is room for improvement in Drata. The core features are solid, but some new features are in a very MVP (Minimum Viable Product) stage. They work, but the user experience isn't always smooth. While the core features are well-developed compared to the market, the new features need more polish. They could benefit from more user feedback and iterations to make them more useful. Some of these new features look promising buthave flaws, so we can’t fully adopt them or justify paying extra for them now. The user interface is clean and intuitive. However, you'll need some specific knowledge if you're a security policy manager or need to set updifferent integrations."
"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."
"If I had to pick a complaint, it would be the way the hosts are listed in the tool. You have different columns separated by endpoint name, Cloud Account, and Cloud Instances ID. I wish there was something where we could change the endpoint name and not use just the IP address. We would like to have custom names or our own names for the instances. If I had a complaint, that would be it, but so far, it meets all the needs that we have."
"SentinelOne Singularity Cloud Security is on the costlier side."
"A few YouTube videos could be helpful. There isn't a lot of information out there to look at."
"To enhance the notification system's efficiency, resolved issues should be promptly removed from the portal."
"Scanning capabilities should be added for the dark web."
"Sometimes the Storyline ID is a bit wacky."
"There can be a specific type of alert showing that a new type of risk has been identified."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"I remember that my company used to pay 25,000 USD to use the product...The product's cost is really high, but it is a powerful tool."
"Drata's pricing is quite reasonable. Compared to other tools in the market, including its biggest competitor, Vanta, Drata is much cheaper. Even compared to other tools like AuditBoard, which aren’t as good, Drata’s price remains competitive."
"It's one of the more expensive options, but I think it's worth the money if you can afford it."
"SentinelOne offers excellent pricing and licensing options."
"PingSafe is fairly priced."
"PingSafe is affordable."
"PingSafe is not very expensive compared to Prisma Cloud, but it's also not that cheap. However, because of its features, it makes sense to us as a company. It's fairly priced."
"The pricing tends to be high."
"SentinelOne provided competitive pricing compared to other vendors, and we are satisfied with the deal."
"It's not cheap, but it is worth the price."
"I am not involved in the pricing, but it is cost-effective."
