Unified risk scoring has improved our cloud visibility and simplifies remediation priorities

Qualys TotalCloud provides unified vulnerability and threat assessment across both IAS and SaaS. This solution provides a single prioritized view of risk, which helps reduce the work I would have to do. We are no longer based on CVSS; we are based on Qualys risk scoring, which is based on CVSS plus internal findings made by Qualys, and then assigns its own score. The TruRisk insight feature has found a small number of assets with high vulnerability scores, though I am cautious since some information is classified. Qualys TotalCloud has positively impacted our bank's performance, and we have definitely seen benefits after implementing this solution.

Centralized cloud view has improved threat response and simplified compliance reporting

We are using Trend Vision One - Cloud Security for getting complete visibility of all the assets that exist within our cloud, and it helps us identify any sort of misconfigurations or fine-tuning that can be done to better our compliance. Trend Vision One - Cloud Security helps in onboarding all the cloud solutions or cloud providers that we have within our organization into a single dashboard, thereby providing greater visibility of all the assets. Earlier we used to have multiple dashboards to manage the same solution or capability, but with Trend Micro, we are able to get everything in a single pane of glass, benefiting our operations significantly. We are using the playbooks built into Trend Vision One - Cloud Security, which help us take a lot of response actions and bring automation capabilities into play. Trend Vision One - Cloud Security has positively impacted our organization by providing a single pane of glass visibility across all the cloud solutions that we have and reducing the number of threats we used to see earlier in the cloud. We are seeing that the number of cloud operations required earlier in terms of threat detection and response, and the time taken to detect a particular threat and take a response action, has considerably improved after onboarding Trend Micro.

Maintain operational efficiency by detecting misconfigurations and vulnerabilities

The vulnerability scanning feature is excellent as it supports various container capabilities like Docker and Sharma. It also offers repository scanning in the source code domain, allowing pre-push code scans. The misconfiguration detection works well for CloudFormation, Docker files, and Terraform. Its compliance support, like NIST, ensures that configurations align with standards. Trivy helps me significantly detect misconfigurations missed by the ops engineers or in Terraform by the naked eye. It ensures that my deployments are free of misconfigurations and vulnerabilities.

"Qualys TotalCloud provides unified vulnerability and threat assessment for IaaS and SaaS and a single prioritized view of risk, which helps reduce my workload by not having to combine multiple sources."

More Qualys TotalCloud pros

"The return on investment is very high because it is so flexible and you can actually cancel this service whenever you want."

"Vision One is versatile and can be integrated with many SIEMs. You're not limited to only one SIEM, such as Microsoft Sentinel. The API integrations are seamless, and we have all the documentation needed to integrate Vision One via API."

"The the most valuable feature is the scanning engine. It does not impact server performance. It's very lightweight."

"I like the conformity and workload security modules. Workload security is all about intrusion detection and prevention. Trend Vision One - Cloud Security has behavioral rules that are auto-populated based on organizational structure. That's one aspect that we liked most."

"Trend Vision One - Cloud Security has positively impacted our organization by providing a single pane of glass visibility across all the cloud solutions that we have and reducing the number of threats we used to see earlier in the cloud."

More Trivy pros

Cons

"An area for improvement would be to focus on risks related to AI, such as large language models and potential data leakage."

"The downside is only in container security, but it has not been a long time since they introduced these models."

"From a downside perspective, the UI is not user-friendly and feels dated compared to other tools like Prisma Cloud."

"There is room for improvement in vulnerability scanning, particularly for PaaS environments. Currently, Qualys does not have full access to these instances, which limits its effectiveness."

"I would appreciate additional integration options to connect Qualys TotalCloud with our other vulnerability management tools."

"TotalCloud could improve its scanning of niche devices like Wi-Fi dongles and USB modems because they are often untested."

"There should be improvement from a dashboard perspective when collecting and showcasing data to lead management."

"The support is not up to the mark and seems to be overburdened."

More Qualys TotalCloud cons

"Trend Vision One - Cloud security aims to protect our assets, but the rapid spread of viruses and vulnerabilities through malicious emails remains a significant concern."

"The workbook insights generate a massive list, making it inconvenient to review."

"The licensing model could be improved. To gain full coverage, you need to spend more to buy subscriptions for each kind of service they offer. It will start to be pricey if you want full coverage."

"The initial setup is easy for someone who operates container platforms on a daily basis. However, it could be difficult for those coming purely from informational security or another field of an IT."

"The tool should improve integration with trend products."

"Securing S3 using Trend Vision One - Cloud Security can cost too much. Trend Vision One - Cloud Security has a tool that requires lots of privileges. From my understanding, it's only for static application testing, so they need to add dynamic application testing, and there should be more collaboration with the application testing tools on the market. We have not used this product, and I don't know if they plan to decommission it or something. They should focus on application security because this tool's unique feature is multi-cloud support. However, they should improve integration with tools for these kinds of use cases, especially application security and dynamic scanning. For example, I would like it to support Dell SecureOps. I'd also like to see some enhancements to API gateway security."

"The product could use a little bit of automation."

"I'd like to see mobile licenses included in the main license, similar to Kaspersky's model for future features."

More TrendAI Vision One – Cloud Security cons

"A dynamic scanning capability during runtime would be a significant advantage."

"The only problem is that Trivy does not support reporting features such as generating reports in CSV, which is useful for auditing and reporting."

"Having little experience can hinder the ability to connect it to a user-friendly UI effectively."

"Trivy generates many false positives, flagging non-existent vulnerabilities."

"For malware detection, I need to use two tools: Trivy as my anomaly scanner and ClamAV. I am integrating these two tools into the CI pipeline. If both malware and anomaly detection could be managed by one tool, I would not need to depend on two tools. That would be my suggestion."

"Currently, the container image scanning is static. A dynamic scanning capability during runtime would be a significant advantage."

"In our CI/CD pipelines, Trivy lacks built-in functionality for report analysis."

"The main area for improvement is in differentiating between OS and application-based vulnerabilities."

More Trivy cons
