Tells us about vulnerabilities as well as their impact and helps to focus on real issues
Looking at all the different pieces, it has got everything we need. Some of the pieces we do not even use. For example, we do not have Kubernetes Security. We are not running any K8 clusters, so it is good for us. Overall, we find the solution to be fantastic. There can be additional education components. This may not be truly fair to them because of what the product is going for, but it would be great to see additional education for compliance. It is not a criticism of the tool per se, but anything to help non-development resources understand some of the complexities of the cloud is always appreciated. Any additional educational resources are always helpful for security teams, especially those without a development background.

An enterprise-level solution with amazing stability, integration capability, and support
Its integration capability is amazing. One thing about every single solution or product in the containerization or DevOps world is that it helps to integrate really well because we are not talking about one use case here. We are talking about multiple use cases. When it comes to the integration part, it's the basic functionality, but for any product, at the end of the day, security is extremely relevant. I personally feel like you have to constantly strive towards being more secure. You can never be 100% secure, and you have to work more toward security. It's as simple as that. That's where every product has room to improve. Whether it's Mirantis, Docker, or even the other vendor that we work with called Sysdig, all of these organizations always strive to be extremely secure, and that is something that they are working towards every day. That's because the kind of problems that are being faced today will not be similar to what comes tomorrow. There will be a hundred new threats. It's an ongoing journey when it comes to security.

It gives you one console to see all of your assets, review their configurations, and build your processes
Most customers use Prisma Cloud for visibility and compliance. Prisma has so many features, but many organizations do not use them. They primarily use the visibility part to connect all their cloud accounts and hosts for visibility to see if they are missing any security controls or if they have any misconfigurations. You can connect it to cloud environments such as Azure, AWS, Oracle Cloud, Alibaba, etc., or to an on-prem data center. Prisma Cloud gives you so many options to automate processes related to your daily operations. When it comes to cybersecurity, you can automate things with their existing APIs. They also have out-of-the-box integrations with many solutions. I have not seen any limitations. Everything is customizable. You can do whatever you want, defining the reporting and custom use cases. They recently updated the UI, so it's much better than before.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"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 is very straightforward. It is not complicated. For the information that it provides, it does a pretty good job."
"PingSafe has a dashboard that can detect the criticality of a particular problem, whether it falls under critical, medium, or low vulnerability."
"Visibility is the most important aspect."
"Singularity Cloud Security offers autonomous response capabilities, automatically remediating threats and restoring affected files without manual intervention."
"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 most valuable features are automated threat response, AI detection, and static and dynamic detection."
"The cloud misconfiguration is the most valuable feature."
"The product's initial setup phase is simple."
"You need to make an architectural runway before actually starting to implement Docker Compose, especially in a distributed environment."
"I think the volume binding is a really interesting feature."
"The solution is scalable and we have plans to increase usage in the future."
"The product is easy to use."
"Mirantis Container Cloud operates similarly to how we interact with databases. It provides a comprehensive platform for deploying and managing containerized applications across cloud environments."
"One of the most valuable feature is its scalability because it is easy to work with. Even though I haven't fully removed it before, it's simple to get started and develop further. It's comparable to working with languages like C++ and Python. Python. It is easy to understand and more user-friendly."
"This solution has cut down on our development time and allows us to spin off new instances for inner development, testing, productions, and security testing."
"Through Prisma Cloud, we can write Lambda functions, configure policies to check the security posture, and get reports. We can do a lot more."
"The solution's dashboard looks very user-friendly."
"The Cloud Workload Protection module is a very strong solution. I like the Cloud Workload Protection part. It is something I have not used for the banking client, but I had a chance to try it out for roughly a month on actual deployment of another customer. That part was really robust. Cloud Workload Protection would be the main feature that I enjoy the most."
"The solution will streamline and minimize manual efforts."
"Prisma scans things and shows all the vulnerabilities and packages that are vulnerable, and which layers, by default, have vulnerabilities. So developers can easily go into the package or a particular layer and make changes to their code. It's very transparent."
"Prisma Cloud stands out as a user-friendly and powerful CSPM solution thanks to its comprehensive capabilities, built-in features, and flexible tagging system."
"The solution offers very good configuration capabilities."
"This positively affected our confidence in your security and compliance. No matter how complex the environment is, the the seamless integration from the top layer itself give us the immediate visibility on the number of services."
 

Cons

"To enhance the notification system's efficiency, resolved issues should be promptly removed from the portal."
"Crafting customized policies can be tricky."
"They can work on policies based on different compliance standards."
"I request that SentinelOne investigate this false positive, as SentinelOne has a higher false positive rate than other XDR solutions."
"While SentinelOne offers robust security features, its higher cost may present a challenge for budget-conscious organizations."
"I believe the UI/UX updates for SentinelOne Singularity Cloud Security have room for improvement."
"We wanted it to provide us with something like Claroty Hub in AWS for lateral movement. For example, if an EC2 instance or a virtual machine is compromised in a public subnet based on a particular vulnerability, such as Log4j, we want it to not be able to reach some of our databases. This kind of feature is not supported in PingSafe."
"The main area for improvement I want to see is for the platform to become less resource-intensive. Right now, it can slow down processes on the machine, and it would be a massive improvement if it were more lightweight than it currently is."
"There could be an automation feature included in the product. It will speed up application processes and will not require scripting codes."
"The orchestration and tracing should be improved."
"The initial setup was quite complex."
"There are a couple of things. Firstly, the vaultStore database within Container isn't as efficient as a standalone Container vault. This needs improvement."
"I think this solution needs better security due to more risks from the outside world."
"With the Mirantis runtime being removed from Kubernetes, which is the industry-wide standard for orchestration of containers, I think it's going in a direction that is not super scalable."
"When it comes to the integration part, it's the basic functionality, but for any product, at the end of the day, security is extremely relevant. I personally feel like you have to constantly strive towards being more secure. You can never be 100% secure, and you have to work more toward security. It's as simple as that."
"It will be better if the product provides dynamic load-balancing capabilities."
"The first time I looked at Prisma Cloud, it took me a while to understand how to implement the integration or how to enable features by using the interface for integration. That portion can probably be improved."
"One thing that is missing is Cloud Run runtime security—serverless. That would be great to have in the tool. It's not that easy to have Cloud Run in specific environments."
"Prisma Cloud is very comprehensive, but there should be better support for the customization of the reports. If Palo Alto can have more customized reports available or give an option to the users to customize the reports, that would be great."
"Prisma is good about compliance, and their support is excellent, but they struggle with automation and integration. They need to stay on top of the newest types of connectors. How can you connect other applications and other tools in order for this to work cohesively? That's a challenge."
"They should improve the user experience."
"The licensing is a bit confusing."
"We are encountering issues with the new permissions required for AWS integration with Prisma."
"The access controls for our bank roles were not granular enough. We needed specific people to do particular actions, and we often had to give some people way too much access for them to be able to do what they needed in Prisma. They couldn't do their jobs if they didn't have that level of access, so other people had to do that part for them. It would help to have more granular role-based access controls."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"The cost for PingSafe is average when compared to other CSPM tools."
"Its pricing was a little less than other providers."
"Its pricing is constant. It has been constant over the previous year, so I am happy with it. However, price distribution can be better explained. That is the only area I am worried about. Otherwise, the pricing is very reasonable."
"SentinelOne Singularity Cloud Security is costly."
"PingSafe is less expensive than other options."
"PingSafe falls within the typical price range for cloud security platforms."
"As a partner, we receive a discount on the licenses."
"I understand that SentinelOne is a market leader, but the bill we received was astronomical."
"It is more costly than other products, but it is worth every penny."
"We use the free version of this solution."
"The solution is open-source and free to try."
"Docker is a free solution."
"The community edition does not require a license and is completely free."
"Its licensing is on a yearly basis."
"Mirantis Container Cloud is free. However, there are features for which you need to pay."
"The pricing and licensing really depends on what your needs are. You could be paying $100 a month to $100,000. It depends on the needs you have from the solution, and the agreement you make."
"I find the pricing to be expensive."
"Prisma Cloud by Palo Alto Networks is a highly expensive solution."
"The pricing is reasonable."
"The pricing and licensing are expensive compared to the other offerings that we considered."
"The purchasing process was easy and quick. It is a very economical solution."
"It is an expensive tool. It is not cheap technology. It is a serious investment for any customer. Customers typically buy it together with services. In my experience, customers buying Prisma Cloud are prepared to pay for the implementation and the tool itself."
"The pricing is competitive; for the most part, the security firms have similar prices."
"You can expect a premium price because it is a premium quality product by a leading supplier."
