I like the security engine, but it needs a break-glass account feature
Pros and Cons
  • "They're responsive to feature requests. If I suggest a feature for Prisma, I will need to wait until the next release on their roadmap. Cloud Native Security will add it right away."
  • "There is no break-glass account feature. They should implement this as soon as possible because we can't implement SSO without a break-glass feature."

What is our primary use case?

My company uses Cloud Native Security as our CSPM solution to discover vulnerabilities in cloud-based configurations. We take alerts from Cloud Native Security and forward them to the DevOps team to remediate them manually. 

How has it helped my organization?

Cloud Native Security helps reduce the number of false positives we receive. We receive notifications and alerts from various channels, such as AWS CloudTrail and Microsoft Defender. These products generate alerts based on their policies. I can feel confident that Cloud Native Security isn't giving any false positives. We get a few, but they are rare, and I can immediately alert the team to redefine their policies. 

What is most valuable?

Cloud Native Security's most valuable feature is its offensive security engine. I have worked with many CSPM solutions. What sets Cloud Native Security apart is the security engine's ability to provide evidence about the potential for vulnerabilities to be exploited or endpoints exposed with credentials.  

The evidence-based reporting is helpful. It shows us all these details that help us do more research. We are working with various stakeholders to remediate those misconfigurations immediately. No other solutions provide this feature. We can research other resources affected by the same kind of vulnerabilities or misconfigurations. We can prioritize fixing them and work on them immediately. That's beneficial to everyone on the team, and they are learning a lot with this feature from Cloud Native Security itself.

What needs improvement?

While Cloud Native Security is mostly easy to use, the interface has a few trouble areas. We have faced some challenges with filtering. The Cloud Native Security team is working on that, and they're fixing it immediately. They take feedback seriously. There is no break-glass account feature. They should implement this as soon as possible because we can't implement SSO without a break-glass feature.

916,956 professionals have used our research since 2012.

For how long have I used the solution?

We have been using Cloud Native Security for one year.

What do I think about the stability of the solution?

Cloud Native Security is stable. 

What do I think about the scalability of the solution?

I rate Cloud Native Security 9 out of 10 for scalability. There is no lag, and the application doesn't break down. 

How are customer service and support?

I rate Cloud Native Security support 8 out of 10. We contacted them about adding some policies and creating plugins based on our requirements. 

Which solution did I use previously and why did I switch?

We previously used Prisma Cloud. Each has its own feature set. Prisma is on a higher level, and Cloud Native Security is a startup that's building its feature set and taking feedback from all the customers. That's one advantage Cloud Native Security has. They're responsive to feature requests. If I suggest a feature for Prisma, I will need to wait until the next release on their roadmap. Cloud Native Security will add it right away.

How was the initial setup?

Deploying Cloud Native Security wasn't too easy or difficult. It was manageable. I did the deployment by myself. I'm the Cloud Native Security admin for my organization responsible for onboarding all the cloud accounts for AWS, GCP, and Azure. 

Which other solutions did I evaluate?

We also looked at Orca Security. Like Prisma, Orca is one of the top solutions on the market. Most of the CSPM solutions have the same features. Cloud Native Security stood out for two reasons: One is the offensive security engine. That is the main thing. The second thing Cloud Native Security offers is evidence-based reporting. That helps us a lot. These two features are unique, which is why we chose Cloud Native Security. 

What other advice do I have?

I rate Cloud Native Security 7 out of 10.

They are constantly improving their UI, Scanning and Vulnerabilities detection capabilities by adding and updating plugin engines and also other features like evidence based reporting.
Pros and Cons
  • "Cloud Native Security is user-friendly. Everything in the Cloud Native Security tool is straightforward, including detections, integration, reporting, etc. They are constantly improving their UI by adding plugins and other features."
  • "We recently adopted a new ticket management solution, so we've asked them to include a connector to integrate that tool with Cloud Native Security directly. We'd also like to see Cloud Native Security add a scan for personally identifying information. We're looking at other tools for this capability, but having that functionality built into Cloud Native Security would be nice. Monitoring PII data is critical to us as an organization."

What is our primary use case?

Cloud Native Security is a CSPM platform we use for cloud security. It checks for vulnerabilities in our web applications and cloud configurations. It also detects infrastructure-as-code issues. Additionally, it scans to find secrets in our code before it goes live. 

Cloud Native Security identifies vulnerabilities before any bad actor can exploit them. We know if there's a misconfiguration in the cloud or vulnerabilities in our cloud-hosted applications. Kubernetes security is also a component. It also has multiple benchmarks for compliance with security regulations.

How has it helped my organization?

Since implementing Cloud Native Security, our risk posture has greatly improved. We are more compliant now. It has built-in compliance benchmarks for various regulatory standards. We were around 60 percent compliant when we started, and now we're at more than 95 percent. 

Cloud Native Security has reduced our mean detection time by continuously scanning and sorting issues into high, medium, and low priority. We can easily detect things before the wrong person finds them. The solution reduces our remediation time, but it varies depending on the team. We address critical issues immediately. Cloud Native Security's rescan capability is good because we can rescan in a few minutes to know whether the issue has been fixed. 

Cloud Native Security enables more collaboration between the security team and developers. The solution allows everyone to view the dashboard, so we can integrate more users and project teams. Everyone can look at the Cloud Native Security dashboard and see which issues are in their repositories or buckets. It's easier for everyone to work together to address issues. 

It saves a lot of time because we would need to look for secrets manually without Cloud Native Security. Searching for cloud misconfiguration issues is also time-consuming and hard to do correctly because our infrastructure is huge. It's inconvenient for the security team to check manually and do penetration testing of every component

When we initially integrated Cloud Native Security, we used to get some false positives, but it was manageable. Now, I rarely see any false positives because Cloud Native Security has improved its tool. We've given them a lot of feedback to help them differentiate between false positives and hits. It was a lot of manual work, but that has gotten better. 

What is most valuable?

Cloud Native Security is user-friendly. Everything in Cloud Native Security is straightforward, including detections, integration, reporting, etc. They are constantly improving their UI by adding plugins and other features. Recently, they added evidence-based reporting abilities. It tells us exactly where the issue is and gives us links to the endpoint and screenshots.

It allows us to scan for vulnerabilities and rate limits without deploying agents. Cloud Native Security allows us to set those values according to our server capabilities and preferences. We can also decide how many cluster images to scan.

The infrastructure-as-code feature is helpful for discovering open ports in some of the modules. It will tell us precisely where the port is open, including the repository and source code. Thus, we know that a port is open on that particular line. After integrating Cloud Native Security into our organization's system, we identified many thousands of secrets that are pushed into the source code.

What needs improvement?

We recently adopted a new ticket management solution, so we've asked them to include a connector to integrate that tool with Cloud Native Security directly. We'd also like to see Cloud Native Security add a scan for personally identifying information. We're looking at other tools for this capability, but having that functionality built into Cloud Native Security would be nice. Monitoring PII data is critical to us as an organization. 

The offensive security engine is pretty good, but I can't say it's complete. I rate it seven out of ten. Cloud Native Security's specialty is cloud security, so the offensive security does lack a few things. We cannot rip reports like Tenable, Qualys, and all those vulnerability scanners, but it identifies some sensitive issues like exposed APIs. Some other issues are not identified, like access, but it does detect sensitive information exposure. 

For how long have I used the solution?

We have used Cloud Native Security for two or three years. 

What do I think about the stability of the solution?

I haven't had any issues with Cloud Native Security's stability. However, we once saw a spike in CPU consumption when they implemented a new feature.  We contacted Cloud Native Security, and they addressed it in a day. 

What do I think about the scalability of the solution?

Cloud Native Security is highly scalable. 

How are customer service and support?

I rate Cloud Native Security support nine out of ten. Their tech support is excellent. We have a dedicated person that we can contact directly. They recently introduced a new tool where we can chat with support directly from within the tool. 

How would you rate customer service and support?

Positive

How was the initial setup?

Cloud Native Security is a SaaS solution, and the onboarding is straightforward. They have a good knowledge base, and it's easy to integrate it. You can get it up and running in under a day or two.

What was our ROI?

Cloud Native Security does offer ROI. We have used Cloud Native Security for more than three years, and we are stoked about the value the solution offers to our organization. 

What's my experience with pricing, setup cost, and licensing?

Cloud Native Security doesn't cost much, so it's worth what you're paying, and the ROI is excellent. 

What other advice do I have?

I rate Cloud Native Security nine out of ten. I would recommend it because many of the solutions that provide capabilities like secret scanning, cloud configurations, and offensive security charge by module, and the costs are pretty high. Cloud Native Security is more cost-effective, so I would recommend it. Also, the amount of issues Cloud Native Security detects is good.

Scans all devices on a network, automates remediation, and is user-friendly
Pros and Cons
  • "The most valuable features are automated threat response, AI detection, and static and dynamic detection."
  • "I request that SentinelOne investigate this false positive, as SentinelOne has a higher false positive rate than other XDR solutions."

What is our primary use case?

I use SentinelOne Singularity Cloud Security as an endpoint security tool. We have deployed it on multiple users' endpoints and multiple servers to protect them from security threats.

As a security engineer responsible for administering the SentinelOne Singularity Cloud Security, Kubernetes, and VR tool, I work in an organization with over 10,000 employees and numerous virtual servers and corporate network machines. To safeguard these systems from security threats, we've deployed Singularity across all endpoints and servers to monitor for and respond to incidents, gathering detailed information about their spread and affected machines.

How has it helped my organization?

Any security incident or malware detection is reported to security administrators within a fraction of a second. Basic rules and AI detections drive this rapid response. For example, suppose a file is flagged as suspicious based on its activity and alignment with the MITRE ATT&CK framework. In that case, the system identifies the file's behavior, categorizes it according to MITRE attackers, generates AI-based responses, and provides insights to security administrators for review and further investigation.

Automated remediation is highly effective, responding in mere fractions of a second to block, quarantine, or contain affected files or devices. Additionally, it can isolate endpoints from the network to prevent malware from spreading or containing compromised systems.

The Ranger feature is not exclusive to Linux systems. It scans all devices on a network, providing information about the types of machines and operating systems present within that specific network environment.

Workload telemetry visibility is valuable during incident response, triage, and analysis. Detailed information about the process is provided when an incident is reported, offering deep insights. For example, if a file is flagged as malware, the entire process behind its execution, including accessed files and invoked processes, is displayed. This comprehensive history effectively aids in determining file behavior and accurately classifying it as benign or malicious.

The benefits of SentinelOne Singularity Cloud Security are immediately visible through the quick response time.

The mean time to detection is under half a second.

The mean time to remediate is between one and one and a half seconds.

It provides an automated response, eliminating the need to block and investigate files manually. SentinelOne Singularity immediately blocks suspicious files, and subsequent investigation allows us to whitelist the file completely or maintain the block.

What is most valuable?

The most valuable features are automated threat response, AI detection, and static and dynamic detection. Monitoring all activities on the server's endpoint provides security administrators with deep visibility into endpoints, servers, and the incidents occurring on them.

What needs improvement?

I request that SentinelOne investigate this false positive, as SentinelOne has a higher false positive rate than other XDR solutions. While false positives are an expected part of incident response, excessive numbers can indicate accuracy issues with the tool.

For how long have I used the solution?

I have been using SentinelOne Singularity Cloud Security for two years.

What do I think about the stability of the solution?

Cloud-based stability is beneficial because it eliminates downtime for business owners, ensuring uninterrupted operations.

What do I think about the scalability of the solution?

Scalability is relatively straightforward as it primarily involves installing agents on additional machines and addressing licensing requirements.

Auto-scaling based on workload demands is beneficial, for example, when a hundred machines are added to the corporate network. We need to deploy the SentinelOne agent to these additional machines and confirm that the license accommodates the increased number of devices.

Which solution did I use previously and why did I switch?

We previously used Crowdstrike Falcon but prefer SentinelOne Singularity Cloud Security because it is user-friendly. The GUI is easy to understand, operate, and administer.

How was the initial setup?

Due to SentinelOne's cloud-based nature, initial deployment is straightforward. Simply installing the agent on the endpoints we wish to protect is sufficient, making setup within our existing corporate network infrastructure relatively uncomplicated.

The deployment time varies depending on the number of endpoints and servers accessible within the network, but it typically takes one to two months to complete and transfer responsibility.

Two people are necessary for deployment: one to handle administrative tasks and another to manage the SCCM component, such as pushing agents to multiple machines.

What other advice do I have?

I would rate SentinelOne Singularity Cloud Security eight out of ten.

Sometimes, Singularity incorrectly flags legitimate files as malware or suspicious, which can disrupt the work of some project users. However, we understand the importance of protecting against potential threats and appreciate Singularity's proactive approach. We can easily whitelist false positives, minimizing productivity impact and ensuring our system remains secure.

SentinelOne Singularity Cloud Security is a valuable tool for organizations with the budget to invest in it. It offers robust protection for servers and endpoints, which are primary targets for security breaches. Given the critical nature of endpoint security, this software should not be overlooked. SentinelOne has a strong reputation, provides rapid response times, and includes features such as deep visibility into malicious files, enabling security administrators to isolate threats in the cloud through sandboxing directly.

The only maintenance required is for agent upgrades.

Helps identify vulnerabilities, is easy to use, and improves our risk posture
Pros and Cons
  • "The key strength of Singularity Cloud Security lies in its ability to pinpoint vulnerabilities in our cloud accounts and identify suspicious activity that warrants further investigation."
  • "Singularity Cloud Security currently lacks a break-glass account function, which is a critical component for implementing Single Sign-On as it allows for regaining access in emergencies."

What is our primary use case?

SentinelOne's Singularity Cloud Security streamlines our cloud security by minimizing false positives. Previously, we were inundated with alerts from various sources like AWS Cloud and Microsoft Defender, making it difficult to distinguish real threats. Now, with Singularity's cloud-native security, I can confidently address genuine threats and efficiently alert my team about relevant Defender policies.

We implemented Singularity Cloud Security to reduce the number of false positive alerts we were receiving.

How has it helped my organization?

I would rate the ease of use a seven out of ten.

The Proof of exploitability in evidence-based reporting helps us during our investigations.

The IaC scanning helps identify preproduction issues.

By analyzing alerts from various channels against our defined security policies, Singularity Cloud Security significantly reduces false positives. This allows our team to focus on real threats, and when a rare false positive does occur, we can quickly notify the security team to refine the relevant policy.

Our false positives have been reduced by over 80 percent.

It has improved our risk posture.

Singularity Cloud Security has improved our mean time to detect by 20 percent and has improved our remediation time by allowing us to see the details of the vulnerabilities in one place.

Singularity Cloud Security has saved our engineers around 25 minutes of time.

What is most valuable?

The key strength of Singularity Cloud Security lies in its ability to pinpoint vulnerabilities in our cloud accounts and identify suspicious activity that warrants further investigation.

Unlike Prisma, which schedules feature additions for its next roadmap release, Singularity prioritizes user feedback and strives to implement feature requests as quickly as possible.

What needs improvement?

Singularity Cloud Security currently lacks a break-glass account function, which is a critical component for implementing Single Sign-On as it allows for regaining access in emergencies.

For how long have I used the solution?

I have been using Singularity Cloud Security by SentinelOne for one year.

What do I think about the stability of the solution?

I would rate the stability of Singularity Cloud Security six out of ten. There are times when I click on a topic and it freezes.

Helps save time, and is user-friendly, but the security rules need better definitions
Pros and Cons
  • "All the features we use are equal and get the job done."
  • "In some cases, the rules are strictly enforced but do not align with real-world use cases."

What is our primary use case?

We use SentinelOne Singularity Cloud Security as our CSPM. Integrated with our environment, SentinelOne Singularity Cloud Security scans for vulnerabilities and recommends remediation.

We implemented SentinelOne Singularity Cloud Security to monitor our cloud security for vulnerabilities in the configuration.

How has it helped my organization?

SentinelOne Singularity Cloud Security is easy to use.

The evidence-based reporting provides details of the vulnerability and the steps we need to take to resolve it.

The SentinelOne Singularity Cloud Security scanning engine provides valuable evidence by identifying and reporting vulnerabilities that could be attacker targets. This evidence of exploitability is crucial because it allows us to prioritize and patch vulnerabilities effectively. Without this information, we might not be able to address critical vulnerabilities promptly.

Thanks to SentinelOne Singularity Cloud Security, our security posture has improved significantly. Our team has been able to effectively address all critical and high vulnerabilities identified by the platform.

SentinelOne Singularity Cloud Security has improved our mean time to detection. Without a CSPM tool, we would not be able to identify vulnerabilities.

SentinelOne Singularity Cloud Security facilitated collaboration between our cloud security, application development, and AppSec teams. The evidence provided by SentinelOne Singularity Cloud Security streamlines collaboration and vulnerability resolution across these teams.

The collaboration has saved engineering time by up to 40 percent.

SentinelOne Singularity Cloud Security's improved compliance monitoring capabilities have helped us achieve a more secure posture.

What is most valuable?

All the features we use are equal and get the job done.

What needs improvement?

We encountered issues with some of the configured security rules. The vulnerability recommendations provided by SentinelOne Singularity Cloud Security were inaccurate. In some cases, the rules are strictly enforced but do not align with real-world use cases. To address this, I recommend revising the security rule definitions to better reflect practical scenarios and provide clearer explanations.

We encountered a problem with SentinelOne Singularity Cloud Security. They required a broad security policy, but we requested that they implement least privileged access and grant fewer permissions than they initially required. It took them over six months to respond to our request.

For how long have I used the solution?

I have been using SentinelOne Singularity Cloud Security for 1.5 years.

What do I think about the stability of the solution?

I would rate the stability of SentinelOne Singularity Cloud Security 8 out of 10.

What do I think about the scalability of the solution?

Easy to use with good monitoring but support could be more responsive
Pros and Cons
  • "We use the infrastructure as code scanning, which is good."
  • "The could improve their mean time to detect."

What is our primary use case?

We use the solution for security posture management. It's a safeguard for our cloud. It helps flag misconfiguration or any kind of vulnerability. There are also remediation capabilities, although we're only subscribed to alerts.

How has it helped my organization?

It's a safeguard tool for our cloud. When I'm using my cloud I need to make sure whatever I'm doing is secure. So we needed a gatekeeper or something acting as a gatekeeper, to keep an eye out since people can sometimes make mistakes. If there is any kind of event error, it helps us get alerted.

What is most valuable?

It's a real-time monitoring tool that runs 24/7.

I like the security capabilities. The availability and stability are very good. 

It is very easy to use, and the graphical user interface is nice. It's great that they provide information regarding issues on the front end. The evidence-based reporting is good. There is some heavy investment there. The user interface and ease of use for security operations are very helpful. Everything is easily available, and that's very impressive. 

It works within a certain set of rules. It has enough information to cover 100% of the services we are using. For most of my expectations, the product has covered my needs. They are also adding new features and functionality.

We use the infrastructure as code scanning, which is good. There's very good security scanning. We can scan non-production environments and get a report. We get notifications of issues immediately. Before moving to production, we always look at reports to check for issues. 

We're almost 99% compliant based on the compliance regulations we follow. It's helpful to have good compliance scanning. 

We've been dealing with fewer false positives. It's improved over time. It's too early to say, percentage-wise, how many fewer we're seeing; however, it is noticeable. 

It's lowered our risk posture. We have been satisfied so far. It covers what we need to be covered.

The mean time to remediate has been lowered by about 20% to 30%.

We now have very good collaboration between our cloud security, application developers, and AppSec teams. There's better communication in terms of response. We haven't calculated if it's saved us any engineering time, however. 

What needs improvement?

They could improve their mean time to detect. It's good, however, it could be lowered further. Detection should be in near real-time. We need these alerts fast as security is our greatest concern.

They could improve reporting and offer better, faster notifications. 

For how long have I used the solution?

I've used the solution for almost 2 years.

What do I think about the stability of the solution?

I'd rate the stability 8 out of 10.

What do I think about the scalability of the solution?

We have 10 to 15 people using the solution. 

I'd rate the ability to scale 8 out of 10.

How are customer service and support?

We've had our support directly reach out to theirs. Sometimes they address items slowly; sometimes they are faster. The support response time could be improved. 

How would you rate customer service and support?

Positive

Which solution did I use previously and why did I switch?

We did use something prior to PingSafe. We had a few things on-premises and on our private cloud. We liked the pricing and feature offering of PingSafe and decided to implement it. 

How was the initial setup?

The initial setup was pretty straightforward. We had to do some integration and it was simple. The deployment itself hardly took an hour. It's integrated with our AWS and that was pretty seamless. 

I don't worry about maintenance. I don't take care of that aspect. However, PingSafe works in the background, maintaining and upgrading the system directly. 

What about the implementation team?

We had a few people from PingSafe involved in the implementation. 

What other advice do I have?

I'm a customer and end-user.

It's a 100% available solution. It covers most of our cloud security requirements and has a nice interface. Support could be faster, though. When we're dealing with security, we don't want lots of time between responses. 

I'd rate the solution 7 out of 10.

We use the solution for security and monitoring. It helps maintain compliance standards. Multiple policies can be mapped and evaluated and alerts can trigger your attention.

How has it helped my organization?

We're using multiple cloud environments and multiple providers, such as AWS, Azure, GCP, and Postgres. It helps us manage multi-cloud security.

What is most valuable?

The UI is very good. The solution offers very good adaptability.

Its ease of use is pretty good. After using it for nine months, I'm pretty comfortable with it.

The evidence-based reporting helps us prioritize and solve issues. This is a feature that is missing from most platforms.

We use agentless vulnerability scanning. It's a good aspect of the product.

The proof of exploitability and evidence-based reporting are excellent. They gave me a detailed idea of what was exposed. 

We use the infrastructure as code scanning. It really helps manage the policies, which I have been working on. 

The compliance capabilities are helping me most of all. The reports and alerts we get help manage everything and act on issues.

We've reduced the number of false positives we receive by 35% or so.

We've reduced our time to detect by about 20%.

It does take time to remediate, however, we've saved time in terms of time to remediate since we get more details around alerts and can go in and look and solve issues. We've reduced our mean time to remediation by about 30% to 35%.

What needs improvement?

It can be complex to use at the outset. 

They could have better support. We've had support issues in the past. They need more experienced support personnel. 

For how long have I used the solution?

I've been using the solution for 8 to 9 months.

What do I think about the stability of the solution?

The stability is okay, however, it needs more maturity. 

What do I think about the scalability of the solution?

We have 2 to 3 users on the solution currently. We have it in one location right now. 

The scalability depends on the integration.

How are customer service and support?

Technical support has room for improvement. 

How would you rate customer service and support?

Neutral

Which solution did I use previously and why did I switch?

We did previously use a different solution. We used Prisma. It did offer good pricing and good scalability.

How was the initial setup?

The initial setup only took about 1 week. I was not directly involved in the customer onboarding process. 

The solution does not require any maintenance. 

What was our ROI?

We see an ROI in the fact that we can better map our best practices. From a security perspective, we're saving around 30% to 40% and we're able to implement more best practices.

What's my experience with pricing, setup cost, and licensing?

The pricing is pretty good. It's comparable to or better than others on the market.

What other advice do I have?

I'm a partner.

The solution is cost-efficient, yet it needs more support accessibility. However, I would recommend this solution to others. I'd rate the product 5 out of 10 overall.
