What is our primary use case?
As an API developer, my use case is to use SentinelOne Singularity Cloud Security for security purposes. It alerts me if there are vulnerabilities, attacks, or security breaches.
We primarily use SentinelOne Singularity Cloud Security for cloud security posture management. This solution also provides other capabilities such as infrastructure as code scanning, identifying hardcoded secrets in the source code, and covering Kubernetes security, utilized by about 25 members of the security and DevOps team.
How has it helped my organization?
SentinelOne Singularity Cloud Security is easy to use, and even beginner-level people can use it conveniently without any difficulty. The dashboard is innovative and sorted, providing numerous metrics for reporting and everything.
It has reduced my mean time to detect by 20%. My mean time to remediate has also reduced by 20%.
It helps save us time by automating manual activities. We have automated everything in SentinelOne Singularity Cloud Security itself and integrated APIs, reducing our time by 30% to 40%.
We have seen a return on investment of saving about 20% to 25% in manpower.
What is most valuable?
The best features we value in SentinelOne Singularity Cloud Security include compliance monitoring features, as we are a frequently audited company. They provide reports with compliance scores, showing how well we meet certain regulatory standards, such as HIPAA, and we can show our compliance as a percentage.
It's also a way to show that we are serious about security. In addition to reporting, I appreciate the manual monitoring, dashboard, and UI—all excellent features.
It's easy to use. Beginner-level people can use it very conveniently.
For evidence-based reporting, if there is something new to the infrastructure, SentinelOne Singularity Cloud Security itself provides documentation to address any errors causing issues with the system. It provides a wide amount of metrics.
Proof of exploitability is important since we have integrated all the SentinelOne Singularity Cloud Security CWPP and CSPM applications within a containerization feature, scanning into Jira. It acts more as a vulnerability management tool for us, identifying all issues and following them to Jira, where we have several dashboards providing an overview of open security issues.
We primarily use features for cloud security posture management. The solution also provides other capabilities like infrastructure as code scanning. It identifies hard coded secrets and the source code and covers Kubernetes security. About 25 members of the security and DevOps team use the solution.
It's positively affected our risk posture. It clarifies and helps us organize so we are more aligned across security. We get good notifications.
It saves us time based on savings on manual activities. We've automated everything and integrated APIs. It's reduced time needed to manage by 30%% to 40%.
What needs improvement?
Since I have been using it, I have seen many improvements. SentinelOne Singularity Cloud Security is an excellent CSSPM tool, but the CSC CWPP features need improvement.
There is scope for more application security posture management features and other than that, there are not many ASPM solutions on the market, and existing ones are more costly.
I would prefer to see SentinelOne Singularity Cloud Security develop into a single pane of glass for ASPM and CSPM, and I would also appreciate runtime protection highlighted immediately if I'm changing anything in my environment.
The dashboard needs more widgets added so that customers or users can see everything on the dashboard itself without needing to go too deep.
For how long have I used the solution?
I have been using this solution for around two years.
What do I think about the stability of the solution?
For stability, it rates nine out of ten. It's a highly stable product, and we haven't had any issues with reliability.
What do I think about the scalability of the solution?
For scalability, I rate it nine out of ten. Our company is growing, and we don't see any performance slowdown from onboarding multiple projects, with no changes to the functionality of visibility it provides.
We have 60 to 70 users on the product currently.
How are customer service and support?
I rate SentinelOne Singularity Cloud Security support nine out of ten.
How would you rate customer service and support?
Which solution did I use previously and why did I switch?
I personally did not use any different product, however, there was something before - maybe Prisma. SentinelOne Singularity Cloud Security is not very expensive compared to Prisma. It isn't very cheap either. However, its features make sense to us as a company, and it's fairly priced.
How was the initial setup?
The deployment is easy. It took one and a half days to implement.
From my application point of view, the integration between SentinelOne Singularity Cloud Security and applications has been more satisfactory and clear, providing a good overall experience. The PingSafe team handles the maintenance part, which occurs on a quarterly basis.
We have the solution across multiple departments.
What about the implementation team?
Three people were involved in the deployment.
What was our ROI?
We have seen a return on investment of saving about 20% to 25% in terms of costs related to manpower.
What other advice do I have?
We don't use the agentless vulnerability scanning. We don't use the Offensive Security Engine.
We are trying to solve security problems since we are using IBM products, which did not give any security alerts. That's why we are using SentinelOne Singularity Cloud Security. Before SentinelOne Singularity Cloud Security was deployed, nothing was monitored along this risk posture. After deployment, it has been more clarified and organized, with everything aligned on a security posture. We also use on the cloud for overall protection and notifications of everything happening in our infrastructure.
I would recommend SentinelOne Singularity Cloud Security based on a security point of view. Considering the scalability, given the company's growth, it is needed.
I rate this solution nine out of 10.
Which deployment model are you using for this solution?
On-premises
If public cloud, private cloud, or hybrid cloud, which cloud provider do you use?
IBM
