Enables us to prioritize and effectively address critical security issues

Evidence-based reporting helps us to prioritize and solve critical security issues. The new visualization feature demonstrates how an attacker can enter the system, highlighting the potential path that can be exploited and outlining all the steps the attacker could take. With that visibility, we can ensure the perimeter is strong and attackers cannot enter, thus reducing the risk. It has helped us prioritize issues. The visibility into how an attack could happen is valuable. For example, it highlights the system vulnerability and outlines where an attack could propagate. The visualization helps me to prioritize remediation, and if I don't know where to start, I can check to see the score that enables me to prioritize issues. I am using infrastructure-as-code scanning, and it's one of the useful features. In pre-production, it identifies embedded secrets and misconfigurations, including issues with Kubernetes or some privileged containers. This feature allows us to pass the audit and secure IaC code so that it isn't easily exploitable by attackers. We can more proactively work to identify and resolve vulnerabilities by using the dashboard and the alerting system that SentinelOne provides. It helps us with audits and compliance. We can show the compliance in percentage. We can confidently say that our company or infrastructure is very secure. It has improved our security posture by 30% to 35%. It has reduced our false positives by 30%. It has helped teams collaborate better. The security team manages SentinelOne Singularity Cloud Security, and when it flags vulnerabilities, they are forwarded to DevOps for remediation. Previously, we needed to identify and report the issues, but there would be lapses in communication. Now, there is a centralized dashboard that anyone can look at and see the open issues and work on them.

Boosts security and compliance in multi-cloud environments while real-time threat detection enhances risk management

Check Point CloudGuard CNAPP flagged a misconfiguration in our AWS S3 bucket that had overly permissive access settings. That configuration could have exposed our sensitive data to the public internet. The platform not only identified the issue but also provided remediation that our team was able to apply immediately. This prevented a potential data exposure. Check Point CloudGuard CNAPP offers a unified, modular platform that combines CSPM, CWPP, CIEM, code security, and cloud detection and response. The agentless workload posture, real-time threat detection and response, multi-cloud coverage and visibility, compliance automation, and one-click remediations stand out as its best features. I find myself relying on the risk management engine and prioritization the most day-to-day. In any cloud environment, you are flooded with findings, misconfigurations, vulnerabilities, and compliance gaps. Without prioritization, it is overwhelming for our team to take care of the posture. CloudGuard's risk scoring helps us cut through incidents. This makes remediation faster and focused instead of wasting time checking every alert. We get to fix the issues that pose real business risks. Check Point CloudGuard CNAPP has positively impacted our organization at a significant level. We get greater visibility and control across all our cloud environments. Some biggest benefits we have seen are faster detection and remediation of misconfigurations, improved compliance posture, reduced risk exposure, operational efficiency, and cost savings. Overall, it has made our cloud environment more secure, compliant, and easier to manage while freeing up our teams to focus on projects instead of chasing alerts.

Good value for money; great for policy management

Our model of deployment for this solution is on-premises. For people looking into this solution and trying to use it for the first time, I'd say make your life easier by using the SUSE product as well on top of your community scale stack. That makes your integration points a lot easier and smoother. I would also say during your initial setup, make sure that your clusters are already in terms of the capabilities with the version required. I would rate this solution an eight, on a scale from one to 10, with one being the worst and 10 being the best. The reason for this rating is that what they offer is solid, but they could expand their service and add more features just to make more things integrated into an enterprise itself.

Quotes from Members

We asked business professionals to review the solutions they use. Here are some excerpts of what they said:

Pros

"Visibility is the most important aspect."

"Overall, I would rate it a ten on ten for cloud security."

"The solution's most valuable features are its ability to detect vulnerabilities inside AWS resources and its ability to rescan after a specific duration set by the administrator."

"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 ease of use of the platform is very nice."

"The most valuable features of SentinelOne Singularity Cloud Security are cloud misconfiguration, Kubernetes, and IaC scanning."

"The cooperative nature of SentinelOne has influenced our decision not to shift."

"SentinelOne Singularity Cloud Security can integrate all your cloud accounts and resources you create in the AWS account, We have set it up to scan the AWS transfer services, EC2, security groups, and GitHub."

More SentinelOne Singularity Cloud Security pros

"The CDR helps detect anomalous behavior and respond to threats before they become an issue."

"On Dome9, you can have reports on compliance, users created, and EAM access to the cloud infrastructure. For example, if some machine is exposed to the Internet, importing and exporting to the Internet when it shouldn't, we get immediate alerts if someone does this type of configuration by mistake. Dome9 is very important because AWS doesn't protect us for this. It is the client's responsibility to make sure that we don't export things to the Internet. This solution helps us ensure that we comply with our security measures."

"The initial setup is easy and not complex at all."

"All of the features are very useful in today's market."

"It offers a range of features tailored to address the unique security challenges."

"This platform has allowed us to collect data from multiple sources, centralizing everything under a single source."

"The cloud security posture management identify the risks that are the most critical to our business. We can define certain key assets that are your crown jewels. And whenever something hits on these crown jewels, you get a very high score. So you can really fine tune towards protecting your risk based assets in the cloud."

"Dome9 continues to be a major piece of our cloud security architecture and has given our senior leadership team a high degree of confidence in our ability to protect our cloud environment."

More Check Point CloudGuard CNAPP pros

"The initial setup is quite good, it's straightforward."

"The features of image scanning and anti-malware are really valuable."

"The most valuable feature of SUSE NeuVector is the performance, deployment, and cost."

"The solution includes many features, not only for container and client security but also for scanning nodes, networks, and vulnerabilities."

"The tool's deployment is simple. Also, I am impressed with its risk capabilities."

"The most valuable feature of SUSE NeuVector is its run-time security."

"The UI has a lot of features."

"The solution includes many features, not only for container and client security but also for scanning nodes, networks, and vulnerabilities."

More SUSE NeuVector pros

Cons

"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."

"For SentinelOne, improvements could be made in managing Internet dependency as cloud-based operations can pose challenges in environments with limited connectivity."

"A few YouTube videos could be helpful. There isn't a lot of information out there to look at."

"I believe the UI/UX updates for SentinelOne Singularity Cloud Security have room for improvement."

"SentinelOne Singularity Cloud Security is on the costlier side."

"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."

"There is room for improvement in the current active licensing model for SentinelOne Singularity Cloud Security."

"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."

More SentinelOne Singularity Cloud Security cons

"The biggest thing is the documentation aspect of Dome9 is a little lacking. They were purchased by Check Point about a year and a half to two years ago. When they integrated into Check Point's support system, a lot of the documentation that they had previously got mangled in the transition, e.g., linking to stuff on the Dome9 website that no longer exists. There are still a lot of spaces with incomplete links and stuff that is not as fully explained as it could be."

"The dashboard is feature-rich, but it can sometimes feel overwhelming."

"Addressing the large amount of compliance information and benchmarks we need to observe, the tools are becoming our goto dashboards."

"The reporting dashboard responds slowly, which leads to late report compilation."

"Compliance checks on cloud resources against various industry standards and compliance framework templates need to be improved."

"It does not support on-premise deployments such as VMware Tanzu, and this has been a major drawback when it comes to integrations with some applications."

"The price of this solution should be reduced so that it is more affordable to scale."

"Dome9 should also support deployments that are on-premises and in a hybrid cloud."

More Check Point CloudGuard CNAPP cons

"The documentation needs to improve a bit."

"Using a node port instead of a cluster IP is less ideal when implementing federation features between two clusters and could be improved."

"SUSE NeuVector could improve by increasing its visibility into other elements of the DevSecOps pipeline. Additionally, scanning around infrastructure would be helpful."

"I would say that this solution should improve monitoring and reporting. I would also like to see more integrations so that we could essentially make it a part of a developing pipeline."

"SUSE NeuVector should provide more security protection rules and better container image scanning."

"However, I found that the support in Egypt was not very qualified, and there was a need to upgrade to a higher support layer to solve my issues."

"The tool should offer seamless integration of other security tools while in a hybrid environment."

"The image-scanning features need improvement."

More SUSE NeuVector cons

Pricing and Cost Advice

"The pricing is fair. It is not inexpensive, and it is also not expensive. When managing a large organization, it is going to be costly, but it meets the business needs. In terms of what is out there on the market, it is fair and comparable to what I have seen, so I do not have any complaints about the cost"

"The tool is cost-effective."

"PingSafe falls somewhere in the middle price range, neither particularly cheap nor expensive."

"SentinelOne Singularity Cloud Security is costly."

"The pricing for PingSafe in India was more reasonable than other competitors."

"The cost for PingSafe is average when compared to other CSPM tools."

"I am not involved in the pricing, but it is cost-effective."

More SentinelOne Singularity Cloud Security pricing and cost advice

"They support either annual licensing or hourly. At the time of our last negotiation, it was either one or the other, you could not mix or match. I would have liked to mix/match. "

"From a pricing perspective, they are pretty expensive."

"The license for CloudGuard Posture Management is about $80 a year, and it's based on your cloud footprint, not the number of users. So you could have a million users, and it doesn't matter."

"The license fee is high."

"I would advise taking into account the existing number of devices and add a forecast of the number of devices to be added in the coming year or two, to obtain better pricing."

"CloudGuard is fairly priced."

"In the beginning, the price of Dome9 was cheap, whereas now it is not."

"Its price is very fair."

More Check Point CloudGuard CNAPP pricing and cost advice

"SUSE NeuVector is an open-source solution."

"The price of SUSE NeuVector is low. There is an additional cost for support."

"Licensing fees are paid yearly."

"The solution's pricing could be better. The cost of a subscription is calculated on the basis of work."
