Manager-Cloud Security Operations at a retailer with 10,001+ employees
Excellent integration features, reliable, and responsive technical support
Pros and Cons
- "AWS Security Hub has very good integration features. It allows for AWS native services integration, and it helps us to integrate some of the services outside of AWS. They have partners, such as Amazon Preferred Network Partners (APN). If you have different security tools around APN, we can integrate those findings with AWS Security Hub reducing the need to refer to different portals or different UIs. You can have AWS Security Hub act as a single common go-to dashboard."
- "The user interface, graphs, and dashboards of the solution could improve in the future. They are not very sophisticated and could use an update."
What is our primary use case?
AWS Security Hub helps us in centralizing all the different types of findings we have. We can view all the vulnerability findings, configuration issues, or security best practices. We have a consolidated view of an AWS account from a security point of view which is very good.
What is most valuable?
AWS Security Hub has very good integration features. It allows for AWS native services integration, and it helps us to integrate some of the services outside of AWS.

You can have AWS Security Hub act as a single common go-to dashboard.
What needs improvement?
AWS Security Hub could improve by having more integration and flexibility with other cloud security solutions on the market. They have integration with AWS solutions and other commercial solutions but not ones that are open-source. If we have more of an open-source integration availability it would be great.
The user interface, graphs, and dashboards of the solution could improve in the future. They are not very sophisticated and could use an update.

I have been using AWS Security Hub for approximately four years.

The solution is stable.

What other advice do I have?

EMEA Sales Engineer- System Integrators & Service Providers at a computer software company with 10,001+ employees
Provides great detection and real-time alerts; lacks self-sufficiency
Pros and Cons
- "Very good at detection and providing real-time alerts."
- "The solution lacks self-sufficiency."
What is our primary use case?
I'm a user of this solution and a sales engineer.
What is most valuable?
The solution is very good at detection and providing real-time alerts.
What needs improvement?
I think post-share management can be extended further, closer to the data. The solution is not wholly self-sufficient. It would be great if they could make it a multi-cloud solution.
For how long have I used the solution?
I've been using this solution for one year.
What do I think about the stability of the solution?
The solution is stable.
What do I think about the scalability of the solution?
The solution is scalable.
How are customer service and support?
They provide good technical support.
How was the initial setup?
The initial setup is simple but not overly simple. There is still some work to do there.
What's my experience with pricing, setup cost, and licensing?
I'm satisfied with the pricing.
What other advice do I have?
I would suggest not relying on the cloud provider only. There are other third-party tools that can help with future strategies. Locking into one vendor can create problems and it's a good idea to use security tools from a third party and have multi-hybrid cloud.
I rate the solution seven out of 10.
Which deployment model are you using for this solution?
Public Cloud
If public cloud, private cloud, or hybrid cloud, which cloud provider do you use?
Amazon Web Services (AWS)

Engineering Manager Technology at Nykaa
Good infrastructure insight, stable, but regional restrictions need lifting
Pros and Cons
- "Finding out if your infrastructure is secure is a valuable feature."
- "The solution will only give you insight if you have configure rule enabled. It should work more like Prisma Cloud and Dome9 which have a better approach."
What is our primary use case?
This solution is for security posture management for the cloud. It will show the security posture of your cloud infrastructure. It can be used for mapping and it can give you a good insight into whether your infrastructure is secure or not.
What is most valuable?
Finding out if your infrastructure is secure is a valuable feature.
What needs improvement?
The solution will only give you insight if you have configure rule enabled. It should work more like Prisma Cloud and Dome9 which have a better approach.
The product should not be a region restriction product. It should be global. It should give you the visibility of all the instances that you have for one account, be it in one region or many regions. There should be visibility of all the region in one place.
For how long have I used the solution?
I have been using the solution for two years.
What do I think about the stability of the solution?
I had no issues with the stability of the solution.
How are customer service and technical support?
We have contacted the technical team regarding removing the global restrictions in the product. They have advised us that this is in their roadmap for the future. We have worked with them closely on many issues.
What other advice do I have?
I rate AWS Security Hub a seven out of ten.
Which deployment model are you using for this solution?
