A tool with great integration capabilities and a good support team
Picus Security has been implemented in our organization to enhance threat detection by allowing us to test some of the other security tools in our company. I recommend the product to others who plan to use it. The tool has not had an impact on our company's overall security posture since the time of implementation since we just used it for some testing purposes, during which it did show some interesting results. I rate the overall tool a nine out of ten.

Has improved our vulnerability tracking and supports cloud-based monitoring with scheduled scans
We don't have any issues with Tenable One Exposure Management Platform. It works well for us, but the only problem is the licensing aspect. In the license, it becomes problematic because when we go to cloud security for vulnerability management, it will take five licenses instead of the one-on-one license that vulnerability exposure management requires. The license needs to be reviewed.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"The most valuable feature of the solution is its integration capabilities with the other security tools."
"You have the liberty of physically executing a specific set of rules in your environment."
"One of the most valuable features would be the detection capability, specifically the ability to detect alarms and logs collected from SIEM tools."
"It's very useful software because the customer mostly configures their IPS and manages their firewalls, WAF, and the DBS according to the latest update, latest news, or according to the situation."
"It provides good reports and offers signature-based solutions."
"The most valuable feature of Picus Security is its threat intelligence, providing suggestions to block and prevent attacks by identifying malicious files and providing threat IDs."
"For me, the setup has been an easy process."
"I think it's a good product for risk-based or exposure-based vulnerability management."
"The solution is very easy to set up."
"The feature of vulnerability management and discovery is what I use."
"We find Tenable One Exposure Management Platform vulnerability prioritization effective overall because, with the scheduled scan running on our set schedule, we can remediate any findings and check on the next schedule if issues are closed, making it much easier for us to monitor vulnerabilities."
"The product gives us a lot of insight."
 

Cons

"To improve, Picus Security could consider establishing a data center in India to address trust issues and increase interest from Indian customers."
"The reporting and data analysis could be improved. Specifically, the analysis of the results."
"Let's say if a customer's environment has 10 security devices and they need to know that there is an attack that has bypassed their devices, they cannot go and inspect every device and every rule in their security devices."
"According to the attack vectors, you cannot specify which product is failing or which product is working well because there's no agent."
"The amount of integrations that the product can handle is an area of concern, making it one of the aspects where improvements are required."
"There is room for improvement in the response rate provided by customer support."
"The license needs to be reviewed."
"It would be nice if the product provided an agent for enforcing policies."
"The sensor update is a challenge that Tenable needs to address."
"The sensor update is a challenge that Tenable needs to address. Sometimes they behave abruptly, requiring me to rework reinstalling the sensors on the endpoints."
"The product has limited reporting capabilities and it isn't great at allowing for customization in reports."
"Tenable needs to provide a better way to manage private clouds."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"There is a yearly license according to the number of vectors. The pricing is moderate."
"They have certain price ranges for their products, depending upon the use cases, and the number of applications the customer wants to try."
"The pricing is fair."
