Is easy to deploy, helps reduce our mean time to detect, and actively identifies threats
Pros and Cons
  • "Cloud Native Security offers a valuable tool called an offensive search engine."
  • "With Cloud Native Security, we can't selectively enable or disable alerts based on our specific use case."

What is our primary use case?

We currently use Cloud Native Security for cloud security posture management, leveraging both the CWP module and the authentication security tab. While we regularly utilize these features, we're planning to onboard the cloud detection and response module, along with the ISIS scanning functionality.

We implemented Cloud Native Security as a secondary control measure to complement our existing security posture. In our Prisma Cloud environment, we have a detection score threshold set at 70 or above. As Cloud Native Security was a new entrant in the market, we wanted to evaluate its capabilities. Fortunately, Cloud Native Security's unique features and policies proved valuable. For instance, Cloud Native Security detected an alert when a developer accidentally committed VS Code files to a public GitHub repository. This helped us promptly remove the VS code from GitHub.

How has it helped my organization?

Cloud Native Security is easy to use.

The feature that has been most effective in threat detection for our cloud environment has been the cloud visual attack tab.

Our cloud security is managed by Intel and Azure Entra. We download a report from them and send it to our team to address any identified issues.

I appreciate that Cloud Native Security incorporates evidence of exploitability into their reports, making them more reliable.

Cloud Native Security's offensive security engine excels at validating potential exploit paths and prioritizing the most critical vulnerabilities. This enables us to proactively identify and address these risks, ultimately strengthening our security posture.

Cloud Native Security has helped reduce our false positives. We can investigate and mute any false positives so they don't appear going forward.

Cloud Native Security helps us actively identify threats, ultimately improving our security posture.

Cloud Native Security has reduced our mean time to detect by 10 percent.

Cloud Native Security facilitates collaboration between our cloud security application developers and AppSec teams. This collaboration is further enhanced by a shared console that provides visibility into all active tickets. This transparency helps to reduce redundant requests, saving time.

What is most valuable?

Cloud Native Security offers a valuable tool called an offensive search engine. This tool has been helpful for us. It allows us to search for vulnerabilities and provides evidence directly on the screen. Additionally, Cloud Native Security offers a feature called Graph Explorer. This feature allows us to drill down into specific resources, search for them on the console, and view details such as open security rules and graph features.

What needs improvement?

While only 5 percent of our workload resides on the Google Cloud Platform, we would still like Cloud Native Security to be configured with automatic remediation capabilities for GCP.

In Prisma, there's a dedicated tab for managing high and medium-severity alerts. This allows us to easily enable or disable specific policies based on our current needs. With Cloud Native Security, we can't selectively enable or disable alerts based on our specific use case.

AI-powered threat detection secures cloud environments in real-time
Pros and Cons
  • "The features that stand out are threat detection using advanced artificial intelligence and machine learning, helping to identify and respond to threats in real-time."
  • "Overall, I would rate SentinelOne Singularity Cloud Security a ten out of ten."
  • "The areas with room for improvement include the cost, which is higher compared to other security platforms. The dashboard can also be laggy."
  • "The areas with room for improvement include the cost, which is higher compared to other security platforms. The dashboard can also be laggy."

What is our primary use case?

Our primary use case is for security purposes. It is deployed on our cloud to handle our security threat detections. It scans our infrastructure to recognize security issues, detect attacks, and provide protection.

How has it helped my organization?

SentinelOne offers an intuitive dashboard to streamline and set up processes. It is user-friendly for security and InfoSec teams.

It helps with regular compliance and transparency. They provide a clear rationale for security practices, which helps in gaining stakeholder's trust. The data-driven approach aligns with compliance framework requirements. I also see a reduction in reliance on human judgment.

It has reduced our mean time to detect by 30% to 40%. There is about a 20% to 30% reduction in the meantime to remediate. In case of any threat, we get alerted within milliseconds. It provides me with everything I need.

It scans my infrastructure very well and finds any issues.

What is most valuable?

The features that stand out are threat detection using advanced artificial intelligence and machine learning, helping to identify and respond to threats in real-time. 

Additionally, the extended detection and response (XDR) provides deep visibility and unified security across our endpoints, network, and cloud environments. 

What needs improvement?

The areas with room for improvement include the cost, which is higher compared to other security platforms. The dashboard can also be laggy.

For how long have I used the solution?

I have been using the solution for about one year.

The solution is stable. I would rate it a nine out of ten for stability.

What do I think about the scalability of the solution?

It is scalable. I would rate it an eight out of ten for scalability.

How are customer service and support?

The technical support is excellent. I would rate them a nine out of ten.

How would you rate customer service and support?

Positive

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

We did not have any similar solution previously. We used AWS services such as GuardDuty and CloudTrail.

By implementing SentinelOne Singularity Cloud Security, we wanted AI-powered scanning and threat detection. SentinelOne stands out due to its ability to provide alerts and documentation without needing to continuously monitor the services. Everything is centralized. It alerts me through an email or a notification if something is happening in our infrastructure. I can look into it and see what I need to do.

How was the initial setup?

It is deployed on the cloud. It took about four days to implement it.

Its maintenance is taken care of by SentinelOne.

What about the implementation team?

Initially, 8 people were involved in deploying the solution. We have about 13 people using this solution.

What was our ROI?

The implementation of the solution has resulted in a saving of time and resources by around 40%.

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

SentinelOne is quite costly compared to other security platforms. I would rate it an eight out of ten for costliness.

What other advice do I have?

I would recommend this solution to other users because of its security. 

Overall, I would rate SentinelOne Singularity Cloud Security a ten out of ten.

Which deployment model are you using for this solution?

Helps improve our cloud security posture, provides great reports, and is user-friendly
Pros and Cons
  • "SentinelOne Singularity Cloud Security stands out for its user-friendly interface and intuitive software, making it easy to navigate and use."
  • "Crafting customized policies can be tricky."

What is our primary use case?

We use SentinelOne Singularity Cloud Security to improve our security posture through evidence-based alerts by detecting and mitigating vulnerabilities.

We sought a CSPM solution that could be configured to adhere to the security policies of our required integrations. SentinelOne Singularity Cloud Security stood out as a strong candidate due to its compliance with industry standards like ISO and its ability to provide valuable security insights.

SentinelOne Singularity Cloud Security is a SaaS solution.

How has it helped my organization?

SentinelOne Singularity Cloud Security boasts a user-friendly interface that avoids information overload. The clean layout allows for easy navigation, even for new users, while still offering the ability to delve deeper into the data for a more granular view.

I would rate the evidence-based reporting of SentinelOne Singularity Cloud Security an eight out of ten.

SentinelOne Singularity Cloud Security's proof of exploitability is invaluable because it allows us to demonstrate the root cause of security issues to stakeholders clearly and concisely, streamlining the remediation process.

I would rate the offensive security engine's ability to assess and verify exploit paths and prioritize breach potential a nine out of ten.

The easy-to-use UI helps our security team review evidence from a single dashboard.

SentinelOne Singularity Cloud Security has broadened our viewpoint within our environment, allowing us to see things from multiple angles. This wider perspective provides greater assurance to our team and the entire enterprise.

It has helped reduce around ten percent of the false positives.

Thanks to SentinelOne Singularity Cloud Security, our cloud security posture has significantly improved. We've effectively mitigated critical and high vulnerabilities, achieving a strong security position from a CSPM perspective.

SentinelOne Singularity Cloud Security has impacted collaboration between our cloud security application developers and AppSec teams. To address this, we've granted controlled access to SentinelOne Singularity Cloud Security for all relevant teams. We've also encouraged its use by providing training on the tool itself.

What is most valuable?

SentinelOne Singularity Cloud Security stands out for its user-friendly interface and intuitive software, making it easy to navigate and use. It excels at presenting remediation steps in a clear and actionable way. Additionally, the reporting capabilities ensure we maintain compliance. However, the most valuable feature for us is the ability to conduct authentic security testing, providing real-world insights into our vulnerabilities.

What needs improvement?

The vulnerability scanner generates a high number of false positives that it flags as alerts, even though they're not actual threats. This suggests a configuration issue. We need to address this, especially since some of these flagged vulnerabilities have already been mitigated by other means.

The compliance monitoring dashboard, while helpful, doesn't integrate seamlessly with our entire system. This creates a disconnect: a high volume of alerts doesn't necessarily reflect a decline in compliance. For instance, I might have a thousand alerts on my ISO-related compliance dashboard, yet the compliance itself remains at 99.99 percent. This inconsistency makes it difficult to justify remediating every alert. In other words, I might give a clean bill of health from a compliance standpoint, yet still expect them to resolve the alert, which can be confusing. Therefore, we need to address either the way the dashboard generates alerts or the way we create them. Ideally, alerts should be directly tied to compliance standards and have a clear role in the overall compliance process. If they don't meet these criteria, perhaps they shouldn't be flagged as high or critical in severity.

Crafting customized policies can be tricky. Take creating our own, for instance. It requires a deep dive into the customization options, as the language used can be complex and demands a certain level of skill.

Since Sentinel's acquisition of SentinelOne Singularity Cloud Security, there has been a decline in both the frequency of new releases and the quality of support. Previously, SentinelOne Singularity Cloud Security was known for its proactive approach.

SentinelOne Singularity Cloud Security utilizes additional modules besides CSPN. Ideally, there should be a correlation between these systems. This would ensure that the assets we review for vulnerabilities within SentinelOne Singularity Cloud Security are consistent with those reviewed in CSPN. This consistency would simplify the process, allowing us to focus on a single review level. This level could be defined from a configuration perspective or by a compliance standard, such as the web application itself. If SentinelOne Singularity Cloud Security migrates data, this correlation between systems would be especially beneficial to ensure continued integration with all modules.

For how long have I used the solution?

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

What do I think about the stability of the solution?

The core modules of SentinelOne Singularity Cloud Security are stable but some of their new features had bugs in them.

I would rate the stability of SentinelOne Singularity Cloud Security seven out of ten.

What do I think about the scalability of the solution?

I would rate the scalability of SentinelOne Singularity Cloud Security ten out of ten.

How are customer service and support?

The technical support is good.

How would you rate customer service and support?

Positive

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

We've added SentinelOne Singularity Cloud Security to our existing Palo Alto Prisma Cloud environment. This will allow us to directly compare the results of the two tools.

How was the initial setup?

The implementation is straightforward and takes a couple of days to complete.

We had five to ten people involved, excluding the SentinelOne Singularity Cloud Security developers.

What other advice do I have?

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

We have SentinelOne Singularity Cloud Security accessible in multiple departments with a total of 20 users.

There is no maintenance required from our end.

While SentinelOne Singularity Cloud Security advertises itself as a Cloud-Native Application Protection Platform solution, it offers some CNAPP functionalities but doesn't provide a fully comprehensive picture of your cloud security posture. In essence, it has some CNAPP capabilities, but it's not a complete CNAPP solution yet.

The offensive security feature is something no other product offers
Pros and Cons
  • "When creating cloud infrastructure, Cloud Native Security evaluates the cloud security parameters and how they will impact the organization's risk. It lets us know whether our security parameter conforms to international industry standards. It alerts us about anything that increases our risk, so we can address those vulnerabilities and prevent attacks."
  • "Cloud Native Security's reporting could be better. We are unable to see which images are impacted. Several thousand images have been deployed, so if we can see some application-specific information in the dashboard, we can directly send that report to the team that owns the application. We'd also like the option to download the report from the portal instead of waiting for the report to be sent to our email."

What is our primary use case?

We adopted Cloud Native Security for its offensive security engine, which no other tools provide. It checks to see if any file or domain has public access. We also use it for cloud configuration scanning. Now, we are integrating it with cloud detection and response and plan to integrate it with CloudTrail and logs. Multiple team members use the solution. Our cloud security team has more than 10 members. We sometimes forward issues to the application team.

How has it helped my organization?

When creating cloud infrastructure, Cloud Native Security evaluates the cloud security parameters and how they will impact the organization's risk. It lets us know whether our security parameter conforms to international industry standards. It alerts us about anything that increases our risk, so we can address those vulnerabilities and prevent attacks. 

Compliance management is critical for every organization. Our compliance score was pretty low when we started using Cloud Native Security. Now, we've started seeing improvement every quarter.  We're around 85 to 95 percent compliant. When we see any alerts related to configuration, we raise a ticket with our follow-up team unless the issue is resolved automatically. We eliminate false positives and identify and work on any problems with our policies or other issues. 

Cloud Native Security has reduced our detection time by 15 to 20 percent through automation. The solution makes it easier by showing every impacted resource on a single dashboard. If we didn't have an automated tool to show us all the affected assets, we wouldn't know what's happening on every server or the resources we have created. Without this solution, we had to go to the documentation page for every cloud provider and implement the change. Now, we can check a single dashboard to get an overall idea of how something impacts our resources, and it helps us to automate. 

The solution has improved collaboration between our teams regarding security posture. We can say to the cloud security team that they need to follow a particular posture-related practice or adopt a network configuration, like blocking public access to a resource. We give these requirements to the network development and application teams.

Cloud Native Security has reduced our vulnerabilities and misconfigurations, improving our security posture. We had about 10,000 alerts when we started, but we brought that down to around 500. That was a considerable improvement in six months. 

What is most valuable?

I have worked on most of the tools in the market, and every product has distinctive features. Cloud Native Security's standout feature is offensive security. That's something no other product offers. All the other products have the same core features, such as vulnerability scanning. 

The UI is user-friendly, and the recommendations are easy for everyone to understand. If any misconfiguration happens, all four teams can read the options and understand how to implement them. To achieve these goals, we can also create an automated template according to cloud security best practices

SecOps plays a crucial role in our deployment and testing in the software lifecycle. In the course of building and deploying our applications, we need to look at our vulnerabilities and configurations. It's easy to identify these things and fix them before deployment by integrating Cloud Native Security.

The solution's evidence-based reporting is helpful because it provides real-time information. If a file has been opened and we haven't provided access, it gives us the evidence. It tells us the domain, and we try to investigate by going to the team that owns the file. We require them to make the file private, so it can't be accessed from the internet.

What needs improvement?

Cloud Native Security's reporting could be better. We are unable to see which images are impacted. Several thousand images have been deployed, so if we can see some application-specific information in the dashboard, we can directly send that report to the team that owns the application. We'd also like the option to download the report from the portal instead of waiting for the report to be sent to our email. 

For how long have I used the solution?

We started using Cloud Native Security last year.

What do I think about the stability of the solution?

Cloud Native Security doesn't have any bugs or glitches. It's fairly stable.

What do I think about the scalability of the solution?

I rate Cloud Native Security nine out of ten for scalability. 

How are customer service and support?

I rate Cloud Native Security support nine out of ten. They have email support, but there is no option to raise tickets from within the portal. Now, they have Intercom, and we raise tickets through that. 

How would you rate customer service and support?

Positive

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

We previously used Prisma Cloud, which has many of the same features, such as cloud-based configuration, Kubernetes scanning, vulnerability assessment, etc., but Cloud Native Security has the Offensive Security Engine. That is the main reason we switched.

How was the initial setup?

Our organization started with a POC for a month and a half before presenting Cloud Native Security to our VP and senior leadership. They gave us the go-ahead, and we finalized the product. It took us less than a week to implement, but the deployment time depends on the organization. It might take time if they need to get approval from leaders. 

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

I rate Cloud Native Security seven out of ten for pricing. It's cheaper than many other products. 

What other advice do I have?

I rate Cloud Native Security nine out of ten. It's a mature solution that includes all the features found in other products on the market. 

Which deployment model are you using for this solution?

Easy to use with good historical data and real-time detection
Pros and Cons
  • "The ease of use of the platform is very nice."
  • "Bugs need to be disclosed quickly."

What is our primary use case?

We use the product across all of our entities for EDR, threat detection, and response methods.

How has it helped my organization?

We wanted a solution for protection. We had a number of entities with various EDR solutions. We wanted to centralize under one EDR solution, and we wanted one that was efficient and easy to manage with a small team.

The biggest thing for us was getting to a single platform. A single pane of glass has been nice. The ability to segment various sites out. The R-Back involved is super helpful for us as we are a multi-company organization. In general, the time has been greatly reduced for incidents.

What is most valuable?

The ease of use of the platform is very nice. The console provides excellent visibility into events that occur and, in general, the wide range of tools that are built into the agent itself.

My impression of the product's real-time detection and response capabilities is good. It definitely is a little bit different. It takes a little bit more time to learn than some of the other solutions that we have worked with in the past. Once you do understand it and once you're capable of running through the GUI and you understand what the logs and various windows they're trying to tell you, it's fairly straightforward.

The solution's automated remediation is good. I like that you can segment it into four options. You can choose to kill it at any time in the kill chain, so you can choose to quarantine it, you can choose to remediate, you can choose to roll back, you can choose to let it run. Being able to choose how far along you want those events to get is pretty nice.

The historical data record provided by the solution after an attack is decent. It gives you a flowchart of the attack. All along the processes you get good visibility and see all that were detected. Definitely, from a post-incident analysis perspective, it's very strong.

The solution has helped reduce our organization's mean time to detect by 20% to 30%. Given that extra 20% to 30%, it frees us up to focus on other items. 

The solution's impact on our organization's productivity is good. It provides robust whitelisting capabilities and improves our productivity. 

What needs improvement?

Agent releases need to be more stable before being pushed out. 

Bugs need to be disclosed quickly.

The reporting, and the logging visibility, are not there. It's very, very crude and simple. It needs to be drastically expanded. 

They need to expand their third-party integrations with SIM tools, and sites need to be given the option to expire at the end of the contract as well.

They could expand their integration with Kubernetes. They are trying to build out their third-party integrations. It does work well on Windows and Mac. 

For how long have I used the solution?

I've used the product for three and a half years. 

What do I think about the stability of the solution?

Agent stability and communication with the console and agents going offline can be an issue. It can be time-consuming to coordinate and fix. However, the cloud console is very resilient. It's mostly the agent releases where we might have issues. CrowdStrike agents seem a little more stable. 

What do I think about the scalability of the solution?

We have about 3,000 users using the solution.

Scaling is no issue. 

How are customer service and support?

Technical support is hit or miss. We have worked with some good agents and some less knowledgeable. 

How would you rate customer service and support?

Positive

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

We have used different solutions, including the fact that we still CrowdStrike at a couple of companies. We are now moving more fully towards SentinelOne.

The simplicity and ease of use were big and where SentinelOne stands out. It's a set-and-forget policy. Based on what we saw in testing, it was the best option. 

In terms of telemetry data, we were all over the board.

How was the initial setup?

The initial setup was a little more complex when we first started. However, they've smoothed a lot of their implementation out and so it's gotten easier over time. It took us a couple of weeks to a month to deploy. About 20 were involved in the deployment. We have 30 to 40 companies around the world and it's across every company and every department. 

The solution does require maintenance. You need to have agents up to date and cases closed properly. It does require you to be invested. 

What was our ROI?

We have witnessed ROI. It's comprehensive in its detection capabilities and has saved us from multiple attacks. We've likely saved 30% based on prevented attacks. 

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

The solution is relatively cheaper and is willing to work with companies on pricing. 

What other advice do I have?

We are customers.

For those who believe they already have a continuous monitoring solution in place, I'd advise that SentinelOne knows its own product. They can provide that extra confidence that nothing gets missed. And if you see a high number of alerts, they're able to really help you discern those and get down to the ones that matter most.

The solution doesn't affect our ability to innovate one way or another. It doesn't hold us back.

I'd recommend the solution and advise running a POC in your environment. It's good to run against CRowdStrike. They are seriously contending against CrowdStrike.

I'd rate the solution eight out of ten.

I would rate the customer service and support as eight out of ten.

How would you rate customer service and support?

Positive

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

Before SentinelOne Singularity Cloud Security, we did not use any solution in the cloud. We had no centralized system. We had to go through cloud services such as GuardDuty, but it took time to analyze the issue and the root cause.

We wanted to follow the best practices and have something centralized. SentinelOne Singularity Cloud Security gives us centralized and real-time data.

How was the initial setup?

We have multiple clouds and a data center. Its deployment is easy. The initial setup was straightforward, and it took a total of around five days, including testing time.

What was our ROI?

We have seen approximately 30% return on investment.

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

SentinelOne Singularity Cloud Security is user-friendly. The portal is well-designed and intuitive. SentinelOne Singularity Cloud Security boasts excellent customer engagement. They keep us informed with monthly updates on new features and upcoming releases, providing opportunities for learning and raising any challenges we encounter. Their approach is both proactive and professional.

It's evidence-based reporting system prioritizes and assigns reported issues to the appropriate teams based on their severity. This ensures that critical issues are addressed first. Reports are initially delivered to our CTO and then disseminated to the relevant teams for action.

Our agentless vulnerability scanner helps us discover vulnerabilities across our cloud infrastructure by analyzing cloud logs and log flows. It then provides detailed information and guidance on the identified vulnerabilities.

We find the offensive security engine that verifies actual exploit paths and prioritizes breach potentials to be very useful.

Using SentinelOne Singularity Cloud Security streamlines our cloud configuration validation process. We no longer need to spend excessive time and effort planning or using other tools to ensure our configurations meet industry standards. This reduces the training burden on our team, keeping them current with security best practices. Additionally, SentinelOne Singularity Cloud Security acts as a safety net, providing peace of mind and increased confidence when deploying updates, rolling out new policies, or making any security-related cloud configuration changes. Our experience and trust in SentinelOne Singularity Cloud Security are well-founded. Their support has consistently addressed any concerns we've raised throughout the year. This report demonstrates the value of maintaining a compliance center, and SentinelOne Singularity Cloud Security plays a critical role in making that possible.

SentinelOne Singularity Cloud Security has been instrumental in reducing false positives during login deployments. For example, when our server load balancer or cluster switches between servers. During this brief window of usually just a few seconds, the DNS isn't mapped to any background resources because it's being transferred from the old load balancer to the new one. While this is a minor, expected occurrence, it was previously flagged as a critical issue. Resolving these false positives took several hours. While SentinelOne Singularity Cloud Security likely detects these discrepancies in real time, it validates and corrects them based on a specific schedule. This delay in resolving the alerts prompted us to report the issue and request suppression of these expected findings. Highlighting this problem helped draw the attention of our executives and senior management.

SentinelOne Singularity Cloud Security has significantly improved our security posture. In the past, developers occasionally exposed credentials to the public unintentionally. SentinelOne Singularity Cloud Security effectively detects and reports these incidents to senior management, allowing us to address them promptly. Additionally, during infrastructure testing, security gateway code might be unintentionally exposed. However, SentinelOne Singularity Cloud Security helps us swiftly identify and mitigate these issues before any damage occurs.

Thanks to SentinelOne Singularity Cloud Security, we've significantly reduced our mean time to detection. It delivers the critical data we need, eliminating the need for dedicated full-time staff.

SentinelOne Singularity Cloud Security has helped us improve our mean time to remediation. Now, we can get prompt support from their team, allowing us to work together to mitigate issues quickly.

SentinelOne Singularity Cloud Security has improved collaboration between our cloud security team, application developers, and AppSec teams. Notably, secret configuration detection allows us to collaborate effectively with developers to swiftly resolve any emerging issues. Our DevOps team handles cloud security, and all teams are satisfied with SentinelOne Singularity Cloud Security's implementation. They actively participate in monthly meetings.

The collaboration has freed up some of our engineers' time. Once we enabled the module and it began identifying issues, engineers were able to plan their work more effectively. The analytical dashboard also helps them manage tasks efficiently, eliminating the need to hire additional staff.

What is most valuable?

SentinelOne Singularity Cloud Security offers comprehensive security posture management. Its success stems from its ability to analyze DNS mappings. While we may have access to the DNS record itself, the underlying infrastructure associated with that domain might be decommissioned. This creates a potential risk, as the domain could be remapped to a malicious website, leading to data breaches or credential theft. However, SentinelOne Singularity Cloud Security proactively detects and alerts us to such accidental exposures of sensitive information, including SaaS credentials. These are some of SentinelOne Singularity Cloud Security's most valuable features.

What needs improvement?

There is room for improvement in the current active licensing model for SentinelOne Singularity Cloud Security. As both a customer and service provider, I believe a more comprehensive package could be developed that would be mutually beneficial.

I recommend including endpoint monitoring functionality in a future release of SentinelOne Singularity Cloud Security. While we currently scan our endpoints manually through an external vendor, integrating this capability within SentinelOne Singularity Cloud Security would offer significant advantages. Additionally having real-time detection of malicious activity in our network would be beneficial.

Great support, works well with AWS, and offers good vulnerability scanning
Pros and Cons
  • "The agentless vulnerability scanning is great."
  • "I'd like to see better onboarding documentation."

What is our primary use case?

We have AWS for most of our infrastructure, however, we don't have a dedicated security team. There are a lot of potential vulnerabilities which we are concerned about. We use SentinelOne Singularity Cloud Security for security. For example, if there are open ports or incorrect configurations, we would get alerted and could fix them.

What is most valuable?

They have dedicated cloud-based configurations, which are quite helpful. 

The product works well with AWS. It can help us manage AWS security. If there are any groups or details that are incorrect or unsafe, or even misconfigured, it helps protect us. 

The product offers ISE scanning, which basically scans all activities for issues. 

We can pick up on pre-production issues. It's very helpful. They've helped us by providing a lot of CI/CD tools. Everything gets scanned so that we can get a sign-off before a deployment.

The ease of use is very good. I'd rate the ease of use 8 out of 10. They have nice UI and templates and the docmentation is very helpful. It's very thorough. 

They also have a good support system for users. If something is not working, they have a good SLA, and within a day or so, they will reach out and help you with whatever you need. 

The agentless vulnerability scanning is great.

If a protocol is not being properly followed, we'll be alerted. This helps us react faster to any production issues. 

We do use the offensive security engine. It's good for verifying exploit paths and prioritizing items. We have recently started using this. It allows us to see which endpoints, for example, are publically accessible, or what code repositories have vulnerabilities in terms of libraries we are using that may be outdated. For example, if we've noted our NGINX server is very publically exposed we can change things. 

The benefits of the product were felt almost immediately as it allowed us to handle issues in the pre-production phase. We didn't have to make anything live before finding issues. Within an hour, we'd begin to see issues, and within 4 to 6 hours, we'd have a full survey of security vulnerabilities. We also get regular notifications when the system sees something is off. Based on the information we receive, we're able to react and fix things very quickly.

We're able to see both high and low-priority issues so that we can accurately prioritize what to do first. That helps us manage bandwidth in terms of resources. 

SentinelOne Singularity Cloud Security has helped us reduce the amount of false positives we see. We've reduced false positives by around one-third. 

Our mean time to detect has been reduced, as well as our mean time to respond. We used to rely on a third-party provider to find issues, and now we can do it in-house. This means we no longer have to sync our AWS information on a daily basis. Now, we have a direct integration with SentinelOne Singularity Cloud Security. We used to have a delay of 36 to 48 hours before we would recognize if there were any vulnerabilities. On top of that, there was a reaction time delay of 4 to 6 hours, meaning issues wouldn't be dealt with until maybe 50 or so hours after the vulnerability was detected. We've reduced all of this down to maybe 8 to 10 hours.

The collaboration between cloud security, application developers, and AppSec teams has been better. It's mostly been positive for us. 

What needs improvement?

They could improve on their UI.  Sometimes it's not clear where to look when seeking information. Support often can direct us by giving us the correct link to what we are looking for. 

I'd like to see better onboarding documentation. If we want to be able to integrate something new, such as new assets, it can be difficult. 

For how long have I used the solution?

I've used the solution for more than 2 years now. We started using it around December 2021 or January 2022. 

What do I think about the stability of the solution?

I haven't faced any lagging or crashing. 

What do I think about the scalability of the solution?

For our use case, it has been scalable. 

How are customer service and support?

The support they provide is good. They give you very detailed information and documentation which they have created internally. They are very informative. They've even shared their own internal documentation in terms of AWS issues or questions. 

They are quick to respond, You can rely on them. 

How would you rate customer service and support?

Positive

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

We did use a different solution, however, it didn't offer direct AWS integration. Due to this, we had to wait up to 48 hours for information on vulnerability issues. We were already having security issues in that timeframe, so we needed something that could help us detect faster. 

How was the initial setup?

The initial deployment was easy. However, having more initial onboarding documentation would have been better. However, we've created some internal docs that have helped us with our use case. How long it takes to deploy depends on the use case, however, we were able to have it up in 12 to 14 hours. We had 2 people working on the deployment. 

What about the implementation team?

SentinelOne Singularity Cloud Security did offer some assistance with the setup.

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

I'm not sure of the exact pricing. However, my understanding is that it is very economical. 

Which other solutions did I evaluate?

We did explore Crowd Strike at some point. Crowd Strike was a very big platform and we were not sure how much support we'd get. We wanted to make sure we had priority support.

What other advice do I have?

I'd rate the solution 9 out of 10. The usability is very good. Both their new and mature products are good in terms of their overall usability.
