Andrew W - PeerSpot reviewer
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.
CHINTAN MEHTA - PeerSpot reviewer
Consolidating security tools with comprehensive cloud visibility
The documentation for Orca Security could be improved. The compliance framework also needs enhancements, especially concerning integrations with other tools like ServiceNow's vulnerability modules, which are not as mature as expected. It should also increase its capability to ingest data from other security tools like CloudSight for endpoint detection and provide real-time monitoring.

Increased compliance and visibility boost cloud security posture
Upwind has great runtime detection and response capabilities for our cloud workloads. It provides great context for vulnerability management, allowing us to see what our most important vulnerabilities are. Upwind gives us insight into API security threats and helps us identify misconfigurations in our cloud environments to align with security frameworks like CIS or NIST. With Upwind, we have greatly increased our cloud security posture. Our compliance rates have improved significantly, and they have helped us automate vulnerability management and gain insights into API endpoint security.
