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.

Is easy to use, improves our security posture, and reduces false positives
Pros and Cons
  • "The most valuable features of SentinelOne Singularity Cloud Security are the asset inventory and issue indexing."
  • "SentinelOne Singularity Cloud Security can be improved by developing a comprehensive set of features that allow for automated workflows."

What is our primary use case?

We use SentinelOne Singularity Cloud Security as our Cloud Security Posture Management tool.

How has it helped my organization?

SentinelOne Singularity Cloud Security is easy to use. While some features, like advanced graphics and custom drag-and-drop filters, might have a learning curve, most functionalities are intuitive. Clicking on "Asset Inventory" provides a clear list of all our assets. The filters are logically organized by resource type, account ID, and other relevant categories. In short, most of the platform is straightforward, allowing users to become comfortable within 15 minutes. However, advanced capabilities like custom visualizations and automated filtering through drag-and-drop may require additional time to master.

SentinelOne Singularity Cloud Security creates a comprehensive inventory of all resources within our cloud infrastructure. It automatically identifies any misconfigurations for each of these resources. The easy-to-track capabilities are further enhanced by automatic integration with Jira. Additionally, SentinelOne Singularity Cloud Security serves as the primary source of evidence for audits and compliance purposes. It documents the resources we identified with misconfigurations and demonstrates that we have rectified them. This functionality simplifies the process of providing evidence to auditors.

We experienced the benefits of SentinelOne Singularity Cloud Security immediately after onboarding our entire Cisco setup. However, there was likely a waiting period of up to six hours for the platform to fully populate with information about our infrastructure, resources, and so on. Despite this wait, some immediate benefits were gained. SentinelOne Singularity Cloud Security likely identified a list of potential misconfigurations across our accounts. This provided a starting point for further investigation and remediation. Of course, to fully leverage SentinelOne Singularity Cloud Security's capabilities, we might need to integrate it with our existing external tools. However, the initial onboarding process itself yielded some valuable insights.

SentinelOne Singularity Cloud Security reduces the number of false positives we encounter. Initially, we relied heavily on custom engineering, which created a lot of noise. The code might not have been scalable, or it might have only triggered under specific conditions. We struggled to manage this custom tooling as our environment grew. When we considered scaling our operations, we realized this approach wouldn't be sustainable. SentinelOne Singularity Cloud Security provided a well-designed system that addressed these challenges. Even during configuration, SentinelOne Singularity Cloud Security can determine if something is misconfigured or not. However, SentinelOne Singularity Cloud Security also allows us to suppress findings that might be flagged as security vulnerabilities in a traditional sense, but are expected behavior in our specific context. For example, we might have developed a custom way to handle a specific situation like a three-bucket container for a site. SentinelOne Singularity Cloud Security allows us to suppress these findings, resulting in a significant reduction in false positives. Integration with SentinelOne Singularity Cloud Security was very straightforward. Furthermore, suppression occurs at the source where misconfigurations are generated. This eliminates the need for an additional filtering layer. Imagine having 100 issues to address, and needing to manually filter out the ones that are not genuine issues. SentinelOne Singularity Cloud Security takes care of this filtering within the platform itself.

SentinelOne Singularity Cloud Security has improved our risk posture by giving us greater visibility into our infrastructure. This includes niche resources and misconfigurations that we weren't previously tracking or aware of. Unlike traditional tools that focus on specific resources or make assumptions, SentinelOne Singularity Cloud Security performs a holistic scan of our entire account. This has given us a much better understanding of our current attack surface. Once these vulnerabilities were identified, we were able to prioritize and remediate them, leading to a long-term improvement in our overall security posture.

SentinelOne Singularity Cloud Security has reduced our mean time to remediation. It's slightly better than our previous approach because we were also scanning daily. However, SentinelOne Singularity Cloud Security also includes scanning for many more resources than we were managing ourselves. So, while the time to fix individual problems might be similar, perhaps slightly less, the reports generated by SentinelOne Singularity Cloud Security are more comprehensive and complete than what we had before. Additionally, SentinelOne Singularity Cloud Security helped us identify a number of additional resources that need fixing, which we weren't adequately tracking in the first place. Once a problem is identified and confirmed as a true positive, it takes no more than 15 minutes to fix it.

SentinelOne Singularity Cloud Security facilitates collaboration between our teams. We have three main groups: application security, infrastructure security, and compliance. The infrastructure team handles the entire SentinelOne Singularity Cloud Security process, from generating reports and onboarding resources to acting on them. This has streamlined our workflow by consolidating everything into a single view. I now have all the information I need in one place. However, it's important to note that our application security team doesn't currently interact with SentinelOne Singularity Cloud Security.

What is most valuable?

The most valuable features of SentinelOne Singularity Cloud Security are the asset inventory and issue indexing. Once I've onboarded all the cloud accounts I want to manage with SentinelOne Singularity Cloud Security, it can automatically create an inventory of all resource types across AWS. Additionally, it can identify misconfigurations for those specific resources.

Another key feature we appreciate is the ability to create custom rules for up to ten users. This functionality is useful because SentinelOne Singularity Cloud Security also collects generic information and metadata about each resource. This allows for granular filtering. For example, we can easily query to find only servers with a specific tag. This filtering capability is valuable for investigations, ad-hoc queries, and data gathering.

Finally, the integration module deserves mention as well. We use Jira internally to track all our tools, security reviews, and bugs. SentinelOne Singularity Cloud Security can directly push issues to Jira, making it very easy for us to track them. This eliminates the need to constantly return to the SentinelOne Singularity Cloud Security platform to see which issues were generated.

What needs improvement?

SentinelOne Singularity Cloud Security can be improved by developing a comprehensive set of features that allow for automated workflows. While the current dashboard is functional, it could be made more actionable by incorporating additional functionalities. For instance, drag-and-drop functionality would simplify the creation of integrations. Additionally, valuable data can be retrieved from the platform using APIs and displayed on the dashboard, potentially using tools like Tableau for visualization. This is just one example, but it highlights the potential for expanding SentinelOne Singularity Cloud Security's capabilities by enabling greater integration with other tools, even those not currently supported.

For how long have I used the solution?

I have been using SentinelOne Singularity Cloud Security for six months.

There was a phase where we built a proof of concept using the SentinelOne Singularity Cloud Security platform to understand if it could directly address the problems we're currently facing. After finalizing the POC, we conducted testing and identified a baseline for future comparisons. Then, we moved into the implementation phase, and now the system is fully operational.

What do I think about the stability of the solution?

SentinelOne Singularity Cloud Security is stable.

What do I think about the scalability of the solution?

SentinelOne Singularity Cloud Security is scalable. We have not encountered any issues with the number of accounts and services we are using.

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

Previously, we managed our cloud security posture with in-house solutions built using open-source tools and custom code. However, as the number of accounts grew, this approach became difficult to scale and maintain. Additionally, the reporting capabilities of our custom tools didn't meet the increasingly stringent compliance requirements. To address these challenges, we sought an external, vendor-managed Cloud Security Posture Management tool.

How was the initial setup?

The initial deployment of SentinelOne Singularity Cloud Security was easy because their implementation team collaborated closely with one of our cloud security engineers. Since there were no agents or software to install, onboarding accounts simply involved creating a role for them. This role grants the platform read-only access to our infrastructure. The process is very streamlined; our team can onboard an entire account within minutes. However, the first time an account is onboarded, it takes some time to ingest all of its resources and information.

The entire deployment took less than a week. This included not only onboarding accounts but also gaining a holistic understanding of the platform and its capabilities. SentinelOne Singularity Cloud Security also came to our office to showcase the modules we could leverage and how we could use them effectively. Since this was our first time working with SentinelOne Singularity Cloud Security, our team actively collaborated with them to resolve any issues we encountered.

What about the implementation team?

One engineer from our organization worked with a team from SentinelOne Singularity Cloud Security to implement the solution.

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

Pricing is based on modules, which was ideal for us. We weren't interested in the platform's full capability at first. Our priority was to establish foundational practices like maintaining an asset inventory and identifying misconfigurations. We then aimed to streamline these processes. Thankfully, SentinelOne Singularity Cloud Security's modular pricing allowed us to pay for only the features we needed, unlike Wiz. With Wiz, we would have paid for the entire platform upfront, potentially leaving us with unused features. This would have been a poor return on investment, especially considering Wiz's high cost. In essence, their pricing model wouldn't have suited our needs. Even if we had eventually used all of SentinelOne Singularity Cloud Security's features, the initial cost would still have been lower than Wiz in the long run.

Which other solutions did I evaluate?

After evaluating several options, including SentinelOne Singularity Cloud Security and Wiz, we determined that SentinelOne Singularity Cloud Security was the best fit for our needs, particularly in terms of cost. SentinelOne Singularity Cloud Security provides a comprehensive view of potential security issues in our cloud infrastructure, allowing us to map them to relevant compliance frameworks, custom security requirements, or internal engineering standards. This enables us to effectively track and remediate these issues, ensuring a more secure cloud environment.

The Wiz platform offered a wide range of features that weren't essential for our current needs. For instance, they provided data security and AI-powered security posture management. However, our current security maturity level wouldn't allow us to fully utilize these capabilities. Additionally, Wiz is a comprehensive platform, and individual modules aren't available separately. In contrast, SentinelOne Singularity Cloud Security allowed for closer collaboration. They could customize the platform's functionalities to meet our specific requirements. Moreover, SentinelOne Singularity Cloud Security was significantly more cost-effective. While I can't recall the exact price difference, it was a substantial saving. Furthermore, SentinelOne Singularity Cloud Security's support team was incredibly responsive. They were receptive to our suggestions for features that might be beneficial in the future. This flexibility, along with the platform's affordability, ultimately led us to choose SentinelOne Singularity Cloud Security.

What other advice do I have?

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

We initially considered the agentless vulnerability scanning as a cloud security management tool, not a host-based security solution. Therefore, we opted against installing agents. Instead, we simply connected our AWS accounts through IAM, allowing the scanner to comprehensively scan all necessary resources and gather the required information.

The maintenance is taken care of by SentinelOne Singularity Cloud Security directly.

Before deploying SentinelOne Singularity Cloud Security, it's important to fully understand all its capabilities. While we're currently using one specific feature, SentinelOne Singularity Cloud Security offers a wide range of functionalities. Gaining a clear internal understanding of your specific needs for SentinelOne Singularity Cloud Security will help you determine the optimal model. Focusing solely on features without a defined purpose can lead to unnecessary costs. It's more efficient to obtain a quote for the model that aligns with your current needs. As your requirements evolve, you can then expand functionality by integrating additional modules.

Supports older legacy operating systems, offers great visibility, and automated remediation options
Pros and Cons
  • "The visibility is the best part of the solution."
  • "It took us a while to configure the software to work well in this type of environment, as the support documents were not always clear."

What is our primary use case?

We have deployed SentinelOne Singularity Cloud Workload Security to our servers and clients. 

How has it helped my organization?

Singularity's real-time detection and response capabilities so far have been great.

I like the way we have options in how we set up the automated remediation. We can set it up to automatically take action, or we can set it up to just flag or let us know that there is something that needs to be investigated. It has been really good in that regard. There are many, many options in how we can configure it, and I have liked that quite a lot.

Compared to my previous solution, I am more comfortable with SentinelOne Singularity Cloud Workload Security. I was always concerned that the previous solution was not catching everything. There were a lot of false positives, and there were several cases where it did not catch everything. Even when it did catch something, the logging and forensic details were very limited. SentinelOne Singularity Cloud Workload Security is the opposite of that. It gives us deep visibility into what is going on and what has happened. The mediation is great, and the logging is much more detailed. It has been a huge improvement over what I was using before. Singularity Cloud Workload Security has given me peace of mind.

To date, all threats detected were false positives or test threats. No actual threats have been encountered, but test threats were detected quickly.

What is most valuable?

One thing I particularly like about Singularity Cloud Workload Security is that it supports older legacy operating systems that we have been unable to eliminate. This is a valuable feature that other clients do not offer.

The visibility is the best part of the solution. To see exactly what's going on in all the clients, and processes that are running, I have got a few false positives, but those are relatively easy to investigate and remedy, and flag them as false positives.

What needs improvement?

We use Singularity Cloud Workload Security with Citrix and a non-persistent VDI. It took us a while to configure the software to work well in this type of environment, as the support documents were not always clear. We eventually got it sorted out with the help of support, and I give credit to SentinelOne for that.

For how long have I used the solution?

I have been using SentinelOne Singularity Cloud Workload Security for ten months.

What do I think about the stability of the solution?

I have not experienced any stability issues, client issues, or rogue agents causing problems. I have also not had any crashes. Overall, it has been great.

What do I think about the scalability of the solution?

We have a relatively small environment, with fewer than a hundred endpoints deployed. So, scalability is easy for us. I don't know how it would work with thousands or even tens of thousands of clients, but I haven't had any issues so far.

How are customer service and support?

The technical support is helpful.

How would you rate customer service and support?

Positive

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

Our previous solution, Trend Micro Worry-Free, in comparison, is quite poor. It did not give me very good visibility into what was happening with my clients, on the network, or what processes were running. If something happened, I was very limited in my ability to figure out what happened. In other words, the forensic capabilities of my previous solution were lacking.

There is no way to compare the turnaround time of obtaining telemetry data between the two solutions because Trend Micro Worry-Free did not provide any telemetry data. We would receive an email about a possible virus, but when we logged into the system to view the logs, there would be nothing there. Or, it would tell us that there was a virus, but it would not tell us which client was infected until we logged into the console. It was lacking in so many areas.

How was the initial setup?

During the deployment, we conducted a test case. One of SentinelOne's sales engineers assisted us in setting up the software, configuring everything, and setting up notifications. They walked us through the process of setting everything up to my liking and how they would recommend setting up the software. They were instrumental in helping us deploy the system, and all of their assistance was included in the price of the system. We did not have to pay any additional fees. I found their assistance to be very helpful.

Without SentinelOne's help, the initial setup would likely be very complex. There are many options for configuring the product, which can be both beneficial and detrimental. On the one hand, it is beneficial if we are familiar with the software and know how to best configure it. This flexibility is a great advantage. On the other hand, if we are coming from a different product and do not know SentinelOne's software, it would be very helpful to have their assistance in walking us through the setup process and recommending a configuration.

I was the only person from our organization involved in the deployment.

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

I wasn't sure what to expect from the pricing, but I was pleasantly surprised to find that it was a little less than I thought.

Which other solutions did I evaluate?

I also evaluated Carbon Black. I read a lot of reviews, both official and user-generated, to learn what people were saying about the product. What really drew me to SentinelOne was its legacy software support. This was a key factor for me, and it helped me eliminate some of the other options.

What other advice do I have?

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

The software itself is very good. Singularity Cloud Workload Security provides deep visibility and support. I have found the support team to be very responsive and helpful whenever I have engaged with them.

One of our requirements was that the solution was simple enough for me to maintain myself without spending a lot of time managing the software. There are software agent packages that become available, and I need to go in and approve them and push them out. There are occasional false positives, but overall, it's not a lot of work.

For straightforward clients on a PC or laptop, Singularity Cloud Workload Security works well. However, in edge-case scenarios like ours with Citrix and non-persistent VDI, we need to test it out to see if it works well enough in our environment. We had some initial problems getting it started, but we were able to resolve them. So, my advice is that if the scenario is straightforward, there should be no problems.

Easy to use with real-time detection and response capabilities
Pros and Cons
  • "I did a lot of research before signing up and doing the demo. They have a good reputation as far as catching threats early on."
  • "Their search feature could be better."

What is our primary use case?

I use it to monitor and update my clients. We have about seventy users, which we run the client on, and we pretty much just monitor the activities and update the agents when possible. We use it to make sure that there are no viruses or malware on the user end, the endpoint machines. It's an antivirus.

How has it helped my organization?

We were looking for a solution that wasn't hard to manage and wasn't intrusive on the client end. We needed something users couldn't make changes to or take up too much CPU. We wanted to make sure that when we loaded this on the user machine it wasn't going to tax it. 

What is most valuable?

The ease of use is great.

The portal is great. It's not complicated. I can find what I need and it's straightforward. It's not over complicated. 

The real time detection and response capabilities are good. I did a lot of research before signing up and doing the demo. They have a good reputation as far as catching threats early on. 

They have an automated remediation feature that I have used. You can resolve issues on the portal. 

The forensic visibility into the Linux kernel is very good. It helps to catch things early on. They've been able to remediate situations pretty quickly.

The historical record after the attacks is informative. It gives me the information I need. It's done really well.

The solution has helped me free up time. I go maybe once a week to see a status and if I get any alerts via email, I'll action something. My users are pretty educated and I haven't had to really worry too much. There's barely anything getting caught as the staff is all very diligent.

When it catches something, we're able to quickly get a handle on it. It's doing its job and we haven't had to worry about any attacks.

What needs improvement?

There isn't anything I don't like. It's really easy to use, for example. 

Their search feature could be better. When I go in and try to search for stuff, it could be a bit easier. It can be a little cumbersome. 

For how long have I used the solution?

I've been using the solution for two years. We're going to be renewing our contract soon. 

What do I think about the stability of the solution?

I've had no stability issues at all.  

What do I think about the scalability of the solution?

It's easy to scale. Scaling is straightforward.

We're a non-profit, so we won't grow too much. We don't really have use for the auto scaling feature. However, the feature does make scaling easy for those who need to grow.

How are customer service and support?

I've barely contacted technical support. I've only spoken to sales in regard to demos. I had to call support once when an agent didn't install correctly. I had them get a cleaner to remove it from the machine. That only happened once. They were very helpful and it was easy to contact them. I was done in ten minutes. 

How would you rate customer service and support?

Positive

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

I did previously use McAfee. When we had to renew, we were looking for something simple on the client end and pretty light. McAfee tends to tax the machine a bit. It had a clunky client as well. The reputation of Sentinel was also better than McAfee's. 

How was the initial setup?

I was involved with the initial deployment. The setup was straightforward. I had no issues with the setup.

Outside of occasionally upgrading the agents, there is no maintenance needed. 

What about the implementation team?

I handled the setup myself and my boss. 

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

The pricing and licensing are competitive. 

Which other solutions did I evaluate?

We were evaluating McAfee and Symantec and a few other companies. I can't recall the others. Sentinel just stood out. 

What other advice do I have?

To those who have a continuous monitoring solution in place, I'd advise them to have something running on their client end as well. Otherwise, you don't have full coverage. 

I haven't really integrated the solution with any third-party solutions.

I'd rate the solution ten out of ten. It's straightforward and not that hard to work with. You don't have to do too much prep work before jumping in. It's an easy solution to implement. 

Which deployment model are you using for this solution?

Provides offensive security, supports private clouds, and is reasonably priced
Pros and Cons
  • "The offensive security where they do a fix is valuable. They go to a misconfiguration and provide detailed alerts on what could be there. They also provide a remediation feature where if we give the permission, they can also go and fix the issue."
  • "It does not bring much threat intel from the outside world. All it does is scan. If it can also correlate things, it will be better."

What is our primary use case?

We use it to monitor Azure and AWS accounts. We also use it to monitor the GitHub account for any data leakage and misconfigurations and also to have proactive configuration checks.

How has it helped my organization?

We were looking for a CNAPP solution that could provide details about cloud misconfigurations, compliance, and any risks. SentinelOne Singularity Cloud Security provides that. The feature of offensive security has been very helpful for us.

We only use agentless scanning. We have not installed agents anywhere. It collects data and provides information.

We use SentinelOne Singularity Cloud Security's Offensive Security Engine. The analytics features of SentinelOne Singularity Cloud Security are something that other providers do not provide. They have scanning on the port base and simulation of attacks. It is a very helpful feature to proactively resolve issues. It handles verifying actual exploit paths and prioritizing breach potential very well.

The proactive approach and offensive security have helped us to fix things in advance before they can be exploited.

We were able to realize its benefits immediately. As soon as you configure it, it does its job. It takes a day to configure it and discover the assets. It is easily deployable, and it immediately starts providing inputs.

SentinelOne Singularity Cloud Security helped reduce the number of false positives. It also helps with our SOC monitoring. The alerts are reduced, and we are in compliance.

We get details about how much we are compliant with different frameworks. It helps us to evaluate the risk posture as well. We use the reports to evaluate our risk posture.

The proactive approach and advanced fixes reduce the number of false positives, but it is difficult to know if SentinelOne Singularity Cloud Security has reduced our mean time to detect. SentinelOne Singularity Cloud Security has definitely reduced our mean time to remediate.

SentinelOne Singularity Cloud Security has not had an effect on the collaboration among various teams because, in our environment, everything is done by IT, but we have visibility across all the domains. We can work together if needed, but it is not yet applicable to our organization.

What is most valuable?

The offensive security where they do a fix is valuable. They go to a misconfiguration and provide detailed alerts on what could be there. They also provide a remediation feature where if we give the permission, they can also go and fix the issue.

They also support private clouds to a certain extent. It is pretty easy and customizable.

SentinelOne Singularity Cloud Security's interface is pretty easy and comfortable. They keep on improvising it. When you are configuring, it is pretty easy.

What needs improvement?

It is a very secluded solution. It works only as CNAPP. It does not bring much threat intel from the outside world. All it does is scan. If it can also correlate things, it will be better. It can discover the threats from the outside world. It can discover the threats or vulnerabilities happening across those assets. If it can bring that in and evaluate, it will be good.

For how long have I used the solution?

We have been using SentinelOne Singularity Cloud Security for a year.

What do I think about the stability of the solution?

It is stable. We have not observed any issues.

What do I think about the scalability of the solution?

We have not increased our assets, so it is difficult to say anything about the scalability part.

How are customer service and support?

I never had to contact their support.

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

We were not using a similar solution previously.

How was the initial setup?

It was pretty easy. It was very straightforward. They had many things available. We got the scripts on Azure, AWS, and GitHub, so the installation was pretty easy. It took a couple of hours.

It is a cloud solution. It does not require any maintenance.

What about the implementation team?

We implemented it on our own. Only one person was required from our side.

Their support was not required. They offered to help. They assigned a customer success manager, but it was easy to deploy, so we did not require much help from their side.

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

Its pricing is okay. It is in line with what other providers were providing. It is not cheap. It is not expensive.

Which other solutions did I evaluate?

We evaluated 2 more products. One was Zscaler, and the other one was Wiz. Offensive security and support for the private cloud were the reasons for going for SentinelOne Singularity Cloud Security.

What other advice do I have?

I would advise evaluating SentinelOne Singularity Cloud Security based on the use cases. You should know what is required and how SentinelOne Singularity Cloud Security can support that. If SentinelOne Singularity Cloud Security is able to fulfill your cases, it will be good. A thorough evaluation and mapping of the organization's objective should be done before buying SentinelOne Singularity Cloud Security.

I would rate SentinelOne Singularity Cloud Security an 8 out of 10. It is good.
