Unified vulnerability data has reduced risk and currently cuts duplicate tools and license costs
Seemplicity can be improved by adding additional graphs and charts that make it easier to do trending over time. I had to do some of that manually via manual reports, but Seemplicity already has a feature request for this. Seemplicity has done a pretty good job of keeping up with integrations. One gap that I identified and that Seemplicity is trying to fill now is having a complete end-to-end mapping. Seemplicity currently looks at the external attack surface using tools like Censys, and then looks at the internal side, examining what is in AWS and other clouds using CSPM. However, there is not anything that currently ties a property on the outside to a system on the inside, especially when you have additional security layers like web application firewalls that actually mitigate the risk.

Continuous security scanning has reduced vulnerabilities and strengthens our web applications
Rapid7 Exposure Command offers several best features, including the ability to schedule scans, staying up to date with current vulnerabilities, and providing trustworthy results. It is also easy to set up scans for different applications, and the platform provides recommendations on how to fix vulnerabilities. Additionally, I can replay the attacks that Rapid7 Exposure Command ran so I can see exactly where the vulnerability is located and what kind of attack it represents, showcasing the thorough information the platform provides. Regarding Rapid7 Exposure Command's AI features, I find that it runs itself once it is set up. While I did not set it up myself, I run scans, let it operate, view results, and find fixes for the identified vulnerabilities. It truly runs itself and provides the information needed to help us be a more secure company. I believe the accuracy and reliability of the output from Rapid7 Exposure Command are quite good, and the information we receive is accurate. However, there have been instances where a vulnerability appears as a false positive due to protocols or security configurations that our service provider has in place, which are not visible from our end. While vulnerabilities may appear present, it does not necessarily mean they truly are vulnerable, and it is helpful to know what needs to be handled by our service provider rather than remaining in the dark about potential issues.

Has become an indispensable tool in our cybersecurity arsenal
While Zafran Security is already a powerful tool, there are areas where it could be further improved to provide even greater value. One key area for enhancement is the searching capabilities within its vulnerabilities module. By incorporating the ability to create Boolean searches, users would gain the ability to apply more complex filters and customize their search criteria. This would greatly enhance the precision and efficiency with which security teams can identify and prioritize vulnerabilities. Having such tailored search capabilities would save time and resources by narrowing down vast lists of vulnerabilities to those that meet specific parameters relevant to our unique risk environment. Additionally, integrating more robust reporting and visualization tools would be advantageous. Enhanced dashboards that offer customizable visual representations of risk configurations and threat landscapes would facilitate better communication with stakeholders, making it easier to explain vulnerabilities and the rationale behind certain security measures. This would also aid in demonstrating the improvements and value derived from existing security investments to leadership and non-technical team members.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"The biggest impact Seemplicity has had on my organization is turning what used to be a fragmented, manual process into something structured and accountable."
"Before we really struggled with meeting SLAs that were in place because we did not have the information we needed and there was too much back and forth, now we nearly have a perfect SLA meeting time."
"I was also able to pay for the tool twice over by using it for tool rationalization."
"When we started with Seemplicity, we saw an 85% reduction in the number of tickets through deduplication, and that is significant for our teams who are swamped with issues."
"Seemplicity has positively impacted my organization by helping reduce the overhead for our SecOps team to manually create vulnerability tickets."
"Seemplicity has a huge positive impact on our organization because once we have a vulnerability, it acts as a great assistant with its auto-mitigate feature, which can be used for a variety of different types of vulnerabilities, supporting our cybersecurity analysis."
"We have seen improvements in remediation rates, as initially a lot of our metrics were in the red, but now all are in the green or yellow."
"Seemplicity is doing amazing work, and organizations were able to better meet their SLAs, better communicate to their leadership and executive level about the overall risk and exposure levels, and overall have a better understanding of what they are dealing with."
"Compared to Tenable or Qualys, Rapid7 Exposure Command is definitely affordable for small-sized or mid-sized engagements, although there are some challenges with detection."
"I would recommend Rapid7 Exposure Command over anything else."
"Rapid7's strength lies in continuous scanning performed with agents and an excellent scan profile provided by the internal scan engines on many devices, so we span from Windows to all Linux interfaces, to roughly all appliances on the market, including network hardware, hypervisors, cameras, and printers."
"What I appreciated most about the reporting and dashboard features in Rapid7 Exposure Command is that they really expose and detail the main assets that are impacted."
"Rapid7 Exposure Command provides me with satisfaction knowing that my external attack surface and digital risk are being monitored."
"Overall, we have seen about eighty-seven percent reduction of the number of vulnerabilities that require urgency to remediate, specifically the number of criticals."
"Zafran is an excellent tool."
"We are able to see the real risk of a vulnerability on our environment with our security tools."
"With Zafran Security, it integrates with your security controls, allowing you to take that risk score and reduce it based on the controls in place or increase the risk based on different factors, such as if the issue is internet reachable or if there's an exploit in the wild."
"Zafran has become an indispensable tool in our cybersecurity arsenal."
"We saw benefits from Zafran Security almost immediately after deploying it."
 

Cons

"Seemplicity can be improved by adding additional graphs and charts that make it easier to do trending over time."
"Seemplicity could be improved with some of the aggregation accessibility. Currently, it is a bit of a black box and can be a bit of a bottleneck."
"There are some bits on the cleanliness of dashboarding and maybe a little bit on the reporting side, but not too much improvement needed as of now."
"Seemplicity can be improved because sometimes the rule setting can be a little complicated, and for instance, filtering out the criteria may not be useful at times, as it can be too complicated based on the business requirements."
"For Seemplicity, I would say two things for improvement. First, reporting customization could go further because this industry is evolving; the CEO tries to get much information that they are looking for."
"My advice to others looking into using Seemplicity is to be aware that you will get more information from support than from the documents themselves, and it can take a bit of time after feeding in data to show meaningful results."
"Seemplicity could use more improvement around the user interface."
"To improve Seemplicity, I would suggest having more knowledge base and more threat intel."
"The graphical interface of Rapid7 Exposure Command is terrible right now."
"Rapid7 Exposure Command is not as easy to deploy compared to Qualys, and the detection rates are lower than Qualys."
"In the Pakistani market, Rapid7 Exposure Command's pricing is on the expensive side, and that represents one of the challenges we are facing."
"I think Rapid7 Exposure Command could be improved by the way asset discovery and agent deployment are conducted."
"However, there have been instances where a vulnerability appears as a false positive due to protocols or security configurations that our service provider has in place, which are not visible from our end."
"Initially, we were somewhat concerned about the scalability of Zafran due to our large asset count and the substantial amount of information we needed to process."
"The dashboarding and reporting functionality of Zafran Security is an area that definitely could use some improvements."
"I think the ability to have some enhanced reporting capabilities is something they can improve on, as they have good reports but we have asked for some specific reporting enhancements."
