What is our primary use case?
We use ImmuniWeb as an instrument to discover our externally visible perimeter. This includes the web services accessible from the internet domain names or IP address ranges, everything we register, and maybe some surprising services that are silently running out of our site.
We also leverage the functionality to search through the public repositories or dark web and look for any entries related to our business or business name. Some may be stolen accounts, source codes, or similar items, but not many vendors around the world offer such a service within one single subscription, which is also important. We try to use every single feature that ImmuniWeb Discovery provides us.
What is most valuable?
I like the fully automated continuous discovery run by ImmuniWeb in the background. We do not need to rerun the same tests or the same scanning against our resources. We need to supply our IP addresses, domain names, and significant resources with special domain names and URLs, and we need to do it only once. Then we always have an up-to-date picture.
I also like the integration with our single sign-on system. We do not need to maintain a separate set of usernames or user accounts. We can plug this ImmuniWeb service into our authentication technology, enabling two-factor authentication. We have secure authentication right out of the box.
The other important feature I like is the executive view. You can easily switch from a technical view to an executive view and have a helicopter view of the compliance status. We can see how much effort is required and our current status.
What needs improvement?
It would be better if they had an automated tagging feature. The tagging functionality currently requires manual tagging, and that's probably the most needed feature from my standpoint.
We also do not have enough tools, enough features, or options to display different resources in the way we need. There are basic grouping and some filtering features, but we still cannot fully separate some flavors of our resources. However, we may not be aware of the latest features.
For how long have I used the solution?
I have been using ImmuniWeb since September 2021, about a year and a half.
What do I think about the stability of the solution?
ImmuniWeb is a cloud-based stable solution.
What do I think about the scalability of the solution?
ImmuniWeb is cloud-based, so it's easily scalable. It can be scaled up at the vendor's discretion. We need to throttle some of the scan intensity for some resources, but it's only on our side, and we can control that. We do not care about the scalability on the vendor side in terms of the product's speed and performance. It's not our issue, and we do not notice any problems.
How are customer service and support?
Technical support is nicely designed and embedded right into the product or into the web portal. Often when you have Discovery and from different situations when you probably need to ask for support, you are just a couple of clicks away from creating the ticket and asking the support, and they are very responsive.
How would you rate customer service and support?
How was the initial setup?
The initial setup is straightforward. Even if we had a hundred or thousand more resources, they could all be imported quite easily. It also seamlessly connects to our Azure Active Directory. All imported resources can be tagged in advance, grouped, and sorted in whichever way is feasible for the users. It's straightforward to get into and start getting that value right away.
What's my experience with pricing, setup cost, and licensing?
ImmuniWeb is relatively cheap. It's a competitive price compared to other products in the marketplace. It's worth the money we are paying for it.
What other advice do I have?
I would tell potential users that they should use it. However, they should probably start using the pre-community tools to ensure it's mature enough to provide useful functionality, even for free.
It will be worth the money if you pay for more advanced functionality. I have been using ImmuniWeb's free edition since it was known by a different name, HT Bridge.
On a scale from one to ten, I would give Immuniweb an eight.
