Tells us about vulnerabilities as well as their impact and helps to focus on real issues
Looking at all the different pieces, it has got everything we need. Some of the pieces we do not even use. For example, we do not have Kubernetes Security. We are not running any K8 clusters, so it is good for us. Overall, we find the solution to be fantastic. There can be additional education components. This may not be truly fair to them because of what the product is going for, but it would be great to see additional education for compliance. It is not a criticism of the tool per se, but anything to help non-development resources understand some of the complexities of the cloud is always appreciated. Any additional educational resources are always helpful for security teams, especially those without a development background.
Amrutha Bennen - PeerSpot reviewer
An enterprise-level solution with amazing stability, integration capability, and support
Its integration capability is amazing. One thing about every single solution or product in the containerization or DevOps world is that it helps to integrate really well because we are not talking about one use case here. We are talking about multiple use cases. When it comes to the integration part, it's the basic functionality, but for any product, at the end of the day, security is extremely relevant. I personally feel like you have to constantly strive towards being more secure. You can never be 100% secure, and you have to work more toward security. It's as simple as that. That's where every product has room to improve. Whether it's Mirantis, Docker, or even the other vendor that we work with called Sysdig, all of these organizations always strive to be extremely secure, and that is something that they are working towards every day. That's because the kind of problems that are being faced today will not be similar to what comes tomorrow. There will be a hundred new threats. It's an ongoing journey when it comes to security.

It gives you one console to see all of your assets, review their configurations, and build your processes
Most customers use Prisma Cloud for visibility and compliance. Prisma has so many features, but many organizations do not use them. They primarily use the visibility part to connect all their cloud accounts and hosts for visibility to see if they are missing any security controls or if they have any misconfigurations. You can connect it to cloud environments such as Azure, AWS, Oracle Cloud, Alibaba, etc., or to an on-prem data center. Prisma Cloud gives you so many options to automate processes related to your daily operations. When it comes to cybersecurity, you can automate things with their existing APIs. They also have out-of-the-box integrations with many solutions. I have not seen any limitations. Everything is customizable. You can do whatever you want, defining the reporting and custom use cases. They recently updated the UI, so it's much better than before.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"All the features we use are equal and get the job done."
"The most valuable features of PingSafe are cloud misconfiguration, Kubernetes, and IaC scanning."
"You not only get to know about vulnerabilities and misconfigurations but also some of the actual"
"PingSafe offers an intuitive user interface that lets us navigate quickly and easily."
"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."
"SentinelOne Singularity Cloud Security has significantly improved our risk posture."
"I would rate SentinelOne Singularity Cloud Security a ten out of ten."
"Cloud Native Security offers a valuable tool called an offensive search engine."
"This solution has cut down on our development time and allows us to spin off new instances for inner development, testing, productions, and security testing."
"The product is easy to use."
"The most valuable aspect is the excellent support. In addition, the billing system is really easy to understand."
"When you have Kubernetes, you can use Mirantis Container Cloud to manage your Kubernetes for easy access and security. It also helps you to manage your CI/CD system. It helps you to build a container-oriented developer workflow. So, if you're building an application in Kubernetes, it provides you with a Kubernetes engine."
"The solution is scalable and we have plans to increase usage in the future."
"The solution has enhanced the security and compliance management of container environments which reduces operational overhead and costs."
"Mirantis Container Cloud provides significant features such as real-time vulnerability scanning and patching for container images and Kubernetes components, reducing security risks."
"The initial setup was really easy and the deployment was fast and straightforward."
"The initial setup is seamless."
"I was looking for a vulnerability scanner and I was looking for one place in which I could find everything. This tool not only does vulnerability scanning, but it also gives me an asset management tool."
"The most valuable features of the solution are areas like compliance and asset inventories, along with runtime protection."
"I like the scanning features provided by Prisma Cloud, including the image scan and source scan."
"It is user-friendly. It has a good look and feel and reporting structure. It provides a single pane of glass. These are the things that I like."
"We found it to be easy and flexible. We could easily configure it for our needs, and we could spread the Prisma Cloud platform to 16 countries without encountering any kind of problem."
"It helps to identify the misconfigurations by monitoring regularly which helps to secure the organization's cloud environment."
"It supports the multi-cloud environment beautifully."
 

Cons

"I believe the UI/UX updates for SentinelOne Singularity Cloud Security have room for improvement."
"I'd like to see better onboarding documentation."
"A vulnerability alert would appear, and we'd fix it, but then the same alert would return the next day."
"For vulnerabilities, they are showing CVE ID. The naming convention should be better so that it indicates the container where a vulnerability is present. Currently, they are only showing CVE ID, but the same CVE ID might be present in multiple containers. We would like to have the container name so that we can easily fix the issue."
"Crafting customized policies can be tricky."
"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."
"PingSafe can improve by eliminating 100 percent of the false positives."
"The cloud-based operations might pose challenges in areas with limited or unavailable internet connectivity. Desktop features might be useful for smaller organizations with less complex security needs."
"I find Docker easier to use, but I gave it to an inexperienced developer and it took him a lot of time to understand."
"Mirantis Container Cloud could improve in simplifying security and compliance management, particularly in vulnerability scanning and patching."
"More integrations with other platforms would be beneficial."
"Mirantis Container Cloud could improve in simplifying security and compliance management, particularly in vulnerability scanning and patching."
"I would also like to see more features inside Docker as well as more integration with different solutions."
"I feel that the product lacks to offer a proper health status of the images which are running, making it an area where improvements are required."
"This product will only be useful if it can successfully run legacy applications in the cloud."
"When it comes to the integration part, it's the basic functionality, but for any product, at the end of the day, security is extremely relevant. I personally feel like you have to constantly strive towards being more secure. You can never be 100% secure, and you have to work more toward security. It's as simple as that."
"In terms of improvement, there are some small things like hardening and making sure the Linux resources are deployed well but that's more at an operational level."
"The cloud integration is too complex. It should be simple to integrate Prisma Cloud with any cloud environment. Policy management could also be simpler."
"The pricing for the solution needs improvement."
"While the documentation continually improves, it still has limitations compared to the extensive resources available for older products like hardware firewalls, which have been around for approximately 20 years."
"While the code security feature has undergone recent enhancements, there is room for improvement in terms of its cost module."
"The Palo Alto support needs to improve."
"The training documentation provided for the two-hour boot camps is notoriously poor and disorganized."
"I would like to see the inclusion of automated counter-attack, although this is probably illegal."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"The tool is cost-effective."
"The pricing is somewhat high compared to other market tools."

"I wasn't sure what to expect from the pricing, but I was pleasantly surprised to find that it was a little less than I thought."
"PingSafe is affordable."
"The price depends on the extension of the solution that you want to buy. If you want to buy just EDR, the price is less. XDR is a little bit more expensive. There are going to be different add-ons for Singularity."
"Pricing is based on modules, which was ideal for us."
"As a partner, we receive a discount on the licenses."
"Mirantis Container Cloud is free. However, there are features for which you need to pay."
