I've built integrations for different systems, and some specific integrations might not be built in yet. This might be an issue for large customers but is not a major concern overall. So, the integration part could be a bit extended. Every organization has different systems, but Salt integrates with 90% of them. If a custom integration is needed, they can build it. They're very good at integrations. So, Salt Security can provide a proof of concept with system integration and share results within two weeks, which often leads to customer purchases. At this point, the product covers everything needed. They keep adding new features, and my local customers haven't requested any missing functionality. The product roadmap is good for the market.

Active threat detection and adaptive rules are the most valuable for us.
I would say that the active threat detection feature and adaptive rules are the most valuable for us. With active threat detection, we are no longer over-swamped with tons of useless events. As all the payloads from malicious requests are analysed with a cloud scanner, we don’t need to do this manually. We also built up an incident management process when Wallarm confirmed that some of the attacks are exposing actual vulnerabilities. Adaptive security rules allowed us to use WAF in blocking mode which was almost impossible previously.
