What is most valuable?
The user interface is well-designed and easy to navigate. Our security team relies on it for several tasks. They can use it to retrieve Jira tickets and assign them to the appropriate teams for resolution. This functionality helps them identify and address vulnerabilities efficiently.
What needs improvement?
I'm not convinced that SentinelOne Singularity Cloud Security's features offer significant value for our SecOps team. While it might be useful for stakeholders and management to have a tool that aligns with business goals and provides insights, we could potentially achieve this with open-source CSPM tools. In its current state, I don't see SentinelOne Singularity Cloud Security directly addressing our specific needs.
While agentless vulnerability scanning is a positive feature, SentinelOne Singularity Cloud Security lacks the ability to effectively group and customize the provided metrics. This creates a significant limitation, as we cannot easily create the specific metrics that are most useful for our needs. For example, if we want to group a specific set of metrics by a particular label or namespace, there is no straightforward way to do so within SentinelOne Singularity Cloud Security. The UI offers visualizations for the provided metrics, but it lacks the functionality to segregate and customize them. This inability to create user-defined metrics is a major drawback of SentinelOne Singularity Cloud Security.
SentinelOne Singularity Cloud Security helped reduce the number of false positives in the previous version of SentinelOne Singularity Cloud Security 1.0.

I would rate SentinelOne Singularity Cloud Security's mean time to detect ability a 6 out of 10.
While Cloud Security Posture Management tools offer valuable functionality, selling a product solely based on open-source CSPM solutions can be challenging. To differentiate themselves, SentinelOne Singularity Cloud Security should focus on two key areas: security and workload protection within the CI/CD pipeline. Firstly, SentinelOne Singularity Cloud Security needs to provide robust security features beyond basic CSPM capabilities. This could involve advanced threat detection and mitigation functionalities. Secondly, workload protection within the CI/CD pipeline is crucial. Here, SentinelOne Singularity Cloud Security should offer insightful metrics that are well-organized and allow for user customization. This means providing granular control over metric segmentation. Users should be able to define their own metrics and choose how they want them aggregated. Ideally, SentinelOne Singularity Cloud Security should allow users to import custom metrics and create custom segregations based on their specific needs, such as namespaces or custom levels. For example, if SentinelOne Singularity Cloud Security gathers metrics from Kubernetes clusters, users should be able to define their own metrics alongside the pre-defined ones and organize them into relevant categories. This level of customization allows stakeholders to focus on the metrics that matter most to them, potentially reducing the overwhelming volume of data from thousands of records to a more manageable set of hundreds. In conclusion, SentinelOne Singularity Cloud Security should prioritize UI improvements and offer advanced data segregation capabilities to truly stand out in the marketplace. This will empower users to tailor their security posture management experience to their specific needs.
SentinelOne Singularity Cloud Security's current documentation could be improved to better assist customers during the cluster onboarding process. Providing comprehensive documentation with clear and abundant examples would greatly enhance the user experience for new customers. This would empower them to set up their clusters efficiently and effectively.

Singularity Cloud Security significantly reduced our organization's threat detection time by providing immediate data visibility. This allows our team to analyze telemetry in real-time, query it, and identify anomalies or potential threats using the Singularity platform. We can create rules that automatically trigger alerts based on this real-time data, enabling immediate response. This instant threat detection and response capability is a major improvement over our previous reliance on multiple tools with delayed data flows. Singularity Cloud Security eliminates those delays, saving valuable time in incident response scenarios.
MTTR and MTTD are critical metrics for incident response processes. They measure the time it takes to fully address an incident, from initial detection to complete remediation. Minimizing these times is crucial to limit damage, as attackers can quickly exploit vulnerabilities and compromise additional systems. Rapid detection and response are essential to disrupt attackers and prevent further progression within the attack chain.
Singularity Cloud helps reduce false positives by allowing engineers direct access to data. This access enables querying, validation, and the creation of correlation searches for improved data analysis. Instead of a black box approach, Singularity provides full visibility into the code and syntax used, increasing confidence in the results. Ultimately, Singularity offers greater control over correlation searches, detection rules, and response scenarios due to the enhanced engagement and control it provides.
Singularity's ability to create custom correlation searches significantly reduces noise by avoiding reliance on generic, pre-built searches that often lead to false positives in diverse organizational environments. This targeted approach results in a high positive rate and efficacy, allowing for focused detection and response. By designing and running custom searches, Singularity minimizes the need to sift through irrelevant alerts, unlike systems using default rules that inundate analysts with noise. This translates to a very low noise-to-efficacy ratio, enabling efficient and accurate incident response.
Singularity Cloud offers valuable data and capabilities extending beyond security, benefiting various business units. For example, it helped troubleshoot a newly introduced service with limited telemetry. My team created custom correlation searches to track specific event types, confirming the software's functionality. This success garnered positive feedback throughout the company, reaching even the CIO and CSR, as it enabled the business to showcase the software's effectiveness in a way that was previously impossible.
SentinelOne improves our regulatory compliance by fulfilling the endpoint detection and response requirements of various frameworks. Many federal regulations require businesses to meet specific security standards, including those related to endpoint, identity, and cloud security. SentinelOne enables us to meet these requirements and assure potential partners that we have a robust security posture. This strengthens our partnerships and streamlines procurement processes, demonstrating how SentinelOne contributes to our compliance efforts.
SentinelOne's evidence-based reporting, particularly the CNS reports, fosters trust due to the transparency of the data source and the ability to understand the underlying mechanisms.

Singularity Cloud Security helps us track our resources so that we don't get lost in the overwhelming volume of things and ensures we follow best practices. The solution gives us better visibility into our resources and enables faster resolution.
Another advantage of Singularity is compliance. I work in the payments industry, where regulations are strict. Maintaining everything and ensuring all the resources meet compliance standards is challenging, but Singularity Cloud Security enables us to do that while saving a lot of time.
Singularity has helped us reduce false positives, but it has also introduced some. Still, it's significantly less than many of the other tools we use. If we deal with fewer false positives, the technicians have more bandwidth to work on real issues. We don't need to spend time on the analysis and can focus on fixing the vulnerabilities and ensuring compliance.
The solution has improved our security posture considerably. In the finance industry, we can't function if we aren't compliant. The better our security posture is, the more compliant we are. By reducing vulnerabilities, we have eliminated risk factors in our systems.
Our remediation time is shorter. It's easier to identify vulnerabilities. We don't need to do much analysis before fixing vulnerabilities. About 90 percent of the time, we can identify the correct problem instantly and begin remedying the finding. It has saved a lot of time. It takes us only one or two days to remedy critical issues, whereas it previously took two weeks. Our mean detection time has dropped from about a week to one or two days.
The solution has given us a lot of insight into cloud security. It shows us some best practices that many people in the company do not know. Singularity finds those weak spots and educates us on the latest best practices to follow. The next time we deploy changes to our infrastructure, we change our policies and designs based on the recommendations.
What is most valuable?
Singularity Cloud Security's UI is clean, simple, and easy to use. When I started using it, I found it easy to learn what things are. Everything is explained in detail. It's always up to date with the latest technologies, such as AWS Kubernetes. They keep on top of trends with new features and updates.
The solution has a mapping feature that allows me to write my own queries and better understand my resources. It also offers some help with security controls on their end, suggesting best practices that you can use to write custom queries or standards. We have the flexibility to customize our infrastructure based on our needs.
Singularity's evidence-based reporting rates my alerts so I can see which ones to prioritize and identify the critical vulnerabilities. It provides a highly detailed description of each vulnerability and the resolution steps. I can triage all the findings from one place and apply different filters based on my preferences.
The offensive security engine is another major feature. We use it for our infrastructure and machines to see if we have an exposure or liability. It takes some time, but the vulnerability reports are highly accurate. It saves us some time because we don't need to verify all the vulnerabilities. We just have to go fix them.
What needs improvement?
The detection time could be better. It takes a long time to scan. I'm not sure how long other tools take for the same amount of scanning, so I cannot compare it with other tools, but it takes us half a day to a full day to complete the scan. I want to get the reports faster so we can start fixing the problems.
The proof of exploitability is another area for improvement. While I have all the information to troubleshoot the problem, it isn't detailed enough for an administrator. It has sufficient information for a general user, but an administrator would like to know all the ins and outs of the vulnerabilities that have been reported.
I would like to see the map feature improve. It's good, but it isn't fully developed. It lets us use custom resources and policies but does not allow us to perform some actions. I would also like more custom integration and runtime security for Kubernetes.
For how long have I used the solution?
We have used Singularity Cloud Security for about eight months.
What do I think about the stability of the solution?
I haven't seen any major stability problems. There are some minor issues but they are rare. Overall, it has been a smooth experience.
What do I think about the scalability of the solution?
Singularity is scalable. It has one UI that can be integrated easily with multiple backends, so we have all the data in one place and we can do whatever we want with it.
How are customer service and support?
I rate SentinelOne support eight out of 10. Their support team is proactive. It has been a while since I connected with them. They helped me with all my questions quickly. It was an excellent experience.
How would you rate customer service and support?
Positive
Which solution did I use previously and why did I switch?
I have worked on other infrastructure-as-code tools and other tools for various functions that Singularity performs, such an AWS Inspector, but now we use Singularity for most of it.
How was the initial setup?
The initial setup is not a very complex process. Because of the large number of resources, we have so many places where we need to integrate the solution repeatedly. It's easy to set up new places or add integrations. The initial setup took two to four weeks. That was how long it took to go back and forth and cover everything.
We did a PoC first, which wasn't very hard. Our deployment team consisted of three or four people. The vendor team was very helpful when they deployed everything on our infrastructure. They helped us set up all the necessary permissions.
What was our ROI?
The return on investment has been good. Singularity offers a lot of flexibility to focus on different aspects because it gives us a lot of information and helps us maintain the observability of all our resources. That is something that we value because of the sheer volume of resources we have. We couldn't do that manually or using some other tools.
What other advice do I have?
I rate SentinelOne Singularity seven out of 10. It's a solid product and I recommend checking it out. It has some excellent features, observability, metrics, etc. It's very cool.

Dashboard shows the criticality of issues and helps resolve issues according to their severity
Pros and Cons
- "SentinelOne Singularity Cloud Security has a dashboard that can detect the criticality of a particular problem, whether it falls under critical, medium, or low vulnerability."
- "SentinelOne Singularity Cloud Security takes four to five hours to detect and highlight an issue, and that time should be reduced."
What is our primary use case?
We use SentinelOne Singularity Cloud Security for our AWS cloud used in my project and to check the account's vulnerabilities.
How has it helped my organization?
SentinelOne Singularity Cloud Security has improved our organization a lot. Before using SentinelOne Singularity Cloud Security, we had not covered many points according to vulnerabilities. We have used the solution's dashboard, which shows the criticality of issues, and we have rectified and resolved many issues according to their severity.
What is most valuable?
SentinelOne Singularity Cloud Security has a dashboard that can detect the criticality of a particular problem, whether it falls under critical, medium, or low vulnerability. If it is not a critical problem, we can try to solve it within 4-5 hours. If it's very critical, then we can take action immediately.
What needs improvement?
SentinelOne Singularity Cloud Security takes 4-5 hours to detect and highlight an issue, and that time should be reduced. Sometimes, the solution shows false alerts. The comments section has also been turned off for the last 10 to 15 days. These are the two issues I'm facing right now in SentinelOne Singularity Cloud Security.
For how long have I used the solution?
I have been using SentinelOne Singularity Cloud Security for the last three months.
What do I think about the stability of the solution?
SentinelOne Singularity Cloud Security is a stable solution, and I haven’t come across any bugs or glitches.
I rate the solution an 8 out of 10 for stability.
What do I think about the scalability of the solution?
The solution has good scalability. Around 10 users in my team use the solution.
I rate SentinelOne Singularity Cloud Security's scalability an 8-10 out of 10.
What's my experience with pricing, setup cost, and licensing?
SentinelOne Singularity Cloud Security's pricing is good because it provides us with a solution.
What other advice do I have?
Suppose we find a volume not attached to any EC2 instance during scanning. SentinelOne Singularity Cloud Security detects such vulnerabilities, and we try to resolve them. SentinelOne Singularity Cloud Security is an easy-to-use solution. Everybody in my team works with SentinelOne Singularity Cloud Security to monitor any vulnerabilities it detects.
SentinelOne Singularity Cloud Security is a good tool for security and vulnerability detection for me and my team. The solution is easy to use, and we are very familiar with the dashboard, which shows the criticality of particular problems. It also shows the link to a particular vulnerability or problem so that we can directly go to that particular problem.
Through the solution's dashboard, we can see problems and detect vulnerabilities. Then, we assign each problem to another and try to resolve it. In the pre production environment, we used to try a blue/green deployment. If we try to get any alerts from that particular dashboard, SentinelOne Singularity Cloud Security will detect them.
SentinelOne Singularity Cloud Security has improved our risk posture by 50% to 60%. Earlier, we couldn't identify the things created by mistake during production. If something is created by mistake or if we are unable to detect mistakes in the production environment, SentinelOne Singularity Cloud Security scans and alerts us of any vulnerabilities.
SentinelOne Singularity Cloud Security takes approximately 4-5 hours to detect an issue. We conducted a test by creating one issue, which was highlighted in the SentinelOne Singularity Cloud Security dashboard within four to five hours. The issue was still present in the SentinelOne Singularity Cloud Security scan after we resolved it, and it was removed after four to five hours.
SentinelOne Singularity Cloud Security has helped reduce our mean time to remediate, and we immediately take action on the issue. In my opinion, SentinelOne Singularity Cloud Security is really collaborative, and other teams use it at the utmost level. The solution is really helpful for us regarding system security.
SentinelOne Singularity Cloud Security has helped us save around 30% to 40% of engineering time. We just see the SentinelOne Singularity Cloud Security dashboard for issues it has detected and try to resolve them as soon as possible. SentinelOne Singularity Cloud Security has helped us save approximately 30% to 40% of our resources, time, and money.
SentinelOne Singularity Cloud Security is integrated with the AWS tool our team uses to detect vulnerabilities. SentinelOne Singularity Cloud Security is a SaaS (Software as a service) solution. We have five to six accounts on SentinelOne Singularity Cloud Security and use them in multiple locations. The solution does not require any maintenance. I would recommend the solution to other users.
Overall, I rate SentinelOne Singularity Cloud Security a 9 out of 10.

Multi-cloud support, easy setup, and good granularity for rules
Pros and Cons
- "The multi-cloud support is valuable. They are expanding to different clouds. It is not restricted to only AWS. It allows us to have different clouds on one platform."
- "In terms of ease of use, initially, it is a bit confusing to navigate around, but once you get used to it, it becomes easier."
What is our primary use case?
We are a security-based company. We use SentinelOne Singularity Cloud Security to put our data planes on it. We have a cloud setup, and we have integrated SentinelOne Singularity Cloud Security into our environment. It checks for any audit or security-related issues.
By implementing SentinelOne Singularity Cloud Security, we wanted a centralized solution. We have many AWS accounts to manage, so we wanted a single dashboard with analytics. We wanted to be able to view and monitor everything at once. We also wanted to customize the rules on which we wanted the alerts to be set up. SentinelOne Singularity Cloud Security was a better option for our use case.
How has it helped my organization?
We have multiple rules set up on SentinelOne Singularity Cloud Security for things that we want to monitor. We have set up something for restricted access for SSH, and then we have access to the EC2 instances. If any of the rules are broken or if there is a bad actor, we get notified quickly. It also helps with the audit and keeping the infrastructure clean.
SentinelOne Singularity Cloud Security includes proof of exploitability in its evidence-based reporting. This is quite important for us because we are a security-based company. We want to tag each and every alert correctly. We also need to provide RCA to the customers. SentinelOne Singularity Cloud Security forms a very good basic layer for things that are happening in the infrastructure. The reports that it gives are also nice. It gives us information about the impact and other things. It helps us.
Its setup is good. It also depends on how finely you want to set it up. It depends on the rules you set, the thresholds you set, and how quickly you act on things. We did not want SentinelOne Singularity Cloud Security to act on things, so we went for a basic setup without any auto-remediation. We act on the issues. It provides us with a basic layer of security.
Previously, we used to find issues from the AWS console and the AWS logs, but because we had multiple AWS accounts, finding out the issues was a bit of a pain point for us. We had to go inside 30 to 40 AWS accounts to find out the capabilities. We had to write our own automation scripts to find the full logs. We wanted a solution that gave us a centralized place to put all the issues that we were facing based on security concerns. With SentinelOne Singularity Cloud Security, we found a centralized solution. It was easy for us to get the data of 30 to 40 clusters in a single dashboard. It was pretty nice to have that. The UI seems a bit confusing initially, but once you start using it, it becomes more intuitive.
There is a team that is working on setting it up on ISE. So far, with just a vanilla setup, it is doing its job, and we are happy with it.
There are a few false positives, but we want them to be there. We do not want to miss out on something. We want everything to be monitored. It does not matter to us if it is a false positive. At the end of the day, the cost that we would pay by ignoring a true positive thinking it is a false positive would be much higher than going through false positives and marking them as false positives.
For every module and everything that we do on our AWS clusters, we evaluate the risk individually, and then SentinelOne Singularity Cloud Security forms an extra layer of security on top of the personal checks that we do. It is like a shield for us. It helps us a lot.
SentinelOne Singularity Cloud Security has reduced the mean time to detect issues by a lot. Earlier, it was a very manual process to detect errors. There was not a single place where we could look into all the alerts. They were all scattered. SentinelOne Singularity Cloud Security unified that. With SentinelOne Singularity Cloud Security, once the alert is detected, we can just look into it directly. We can go into a specific cluster, resolve the issues, and mark it as resolved. There is a 45% to 50% reduction in the mean time to detect.
Our mean time to remediate remains the same because we have manual remediation. There is no change in that. The main issue for us was to be able to detect issues, and SentinelOne Singularity Cloud Security solved that for us, but because remediation is taken care of by us manually, the mean time to remediate remains the same.
SentinelOne Singularity Cloud Security is continuously monitored by the customer success engineering team and the security team. These people contact the infrastructure team. The application team is not involved because we mostly monitor the infrastructure side. That is the AWS side. It helps us with better collaboration. When the time zones change, we do not have to give a lot of context or change information across different time zones to different people. They can go into the console, see the issue, and continue to work on it.
Earlier, if there was a security issue, it had to be handed over to people in different time zones. Because we are a global company, we have on-calls and other things. Earlier, it used to be a big process. We had to write down the whole documentation of what happened, where we were seeing the issue, and whether it was resolved or not. We had to provide the complete information on that single issue. Things are simpler now because people can just log into it and see what is in the pending state and which security vulnerabilities we are still facing. A person in a different time zone can just log into the SentinelOne Singularity Cloud Security console and start remediating the issue.
What is most valuable?
The multi-cloud support is valuable. They are expanding to different clouds. It is not restricted to only AWS. It allows us to have different clouds on one platform. The integration is quite easy. It took around 15 minutes for the whole stack to set up. It was very easy to set up. That was one of the best things.
The custom rules are also valuable. We can set up our own thresholds on the rules. We can have a granular setup for the rules. We can also scan for specific ports and specific AWS modules. The granularity of rules is good.
What needs improvement?
In terms of ease of use, initially, it is a bit confusing to navigate around, but once you get used to it, it becomes easier. Initially, I had problems finding a few things and creating the policies. It was a bit difficult for me, but after going through the documentation, it got easier.
I was checking the IaC checks that they have, and they can add something for auto-remediating IaC. They can integrate something that will help auto-remediate on IaC and make needed changes to the code. They can also integrate something like CoPilot.
Other than that, I do not have any input. They have covered quite a bit. They are doing a good job. The features are good for what we are using it for right now.
For how long have I used the solution?
I have been using SentinelOne Singularity Cloud Security for 3 to 4 months.
What do I think about the stability of the solution?
Its stability is good. We do not have a high volume. It is doing well for the scale that we have. I would rate it a 9 out of 10 for stability.
What do I think about the scalability of the solution?
Its scalability is good. I would rate it an 8 out of 10 for scalability. It meets our requirements. SentinelOne Singularity Cloud Security does the very basic job of collecting the CloudWatch logs, keeping them in a centralized place, and looking for errors. We have scaled it across all of our AWS accounts, and it is doing well. I do not see any issues coming in the future as well.
SentinelOne Singularity Cloud Security is being used by our infrastructure team. There are 15 to 20 people who keep a check.
How are customer service and support?
Their support was good. I would rate them an 8 out of 10.
How would you rate customer service and support?
Positive
Which solution did I use previously and why did I switch?
We did not have anything like SentinelOne Singularity Cloud Security before.
How was the initial setup?
The initial setup was straightforward. It only took about 15 minutes.
We initially had issues handling the setup. We were doing it slightly wrong. We ran it multiple times which messed up the setup. We got SentinelOne Singularity Cloud Security folks on the call. SentinelOne Singularity Cloud Security people assisted us with it, and it was very quick once they were on the call.
We are on the cloud. We have different AWS clusters, and we have onboarded AWS clusters to it. There is a single dashboard for us. We have not integrated it with anything else. SentinelOne Singularity Cloud Security is a separate system running, and we have not integrated it with anything. Being a security company, we are directly adding third-party solutions to our stack.
SentinelOne Singularity Cloud Security does not require any maintenance from our side. It was a one-time installation, and since then, we have not had any issues with it.
What other advice do I have?
Based on the things that we have tested, it does a pretty good job of alerting and reporting. If you have a highly scaled environment with 50 to 60 AWS clusters and you are looking for a tool that simplifies getting security logs, SentinelOne Singularity Cloud Security is the perfect solution. It does the job. I would recommend SentinelOne Singularity Cloud Security to others.
SentinelOne Singularity Cloud Security has an auto-remediation feature, but we are not using that because we have to give a lot of access to SentinelOne Singularity Cloud Security for that. We are not willing to do so. That is why we do not use the auto-remediation offered by SentinelOne Singularity Cloud Security. We just get the alerts, and then we act on them. We also do not use agentless vulnerability scanning, IaC scanning, and SentinelOne Singularity Cloud Security's Offensive Security Engine.
Overall, I would rate SentinelOne Singularity Cloud Security an 8 out of 10.
