Unified risk scoring has improved our cloud visibility and simplifies remediation priorities
Qualys TotalCloud provides unified vulnerability and threat assessment across both IAS and SaaS. This solution provides a single prioritized view of risk, which helps reduce the work I would have to do. We are no longer based on CVSS; we are based on Qualys risk scoring, which is based on CVSS plus internal findings made by Qualys, and then assigns its own score. The TruRisk insight feature has found a small number of assets with high vulnerability scores, though I am cautious since some information is classified. Qualys TotalCloud has positively impacted our bank's performance, and we have definitely seen benefits after implementing this solution.

Centralized security workflows have reduced alert noise and now prioritize critical remediation
In recent months, we have started to use Seemplicity's investigations and analysts feature, and it also appears to be a good capability. It is not fully utilized yet, but it does show potential. We see many instances where based on the original data from security systems, Seemplicity determines that a certain ticket is of high priority and should be addressed, but when we handle it, we often find that some information is missing or it is not really such a high priority. The analysts feature brings in additional AI capabilities where they investigate the topic in depth. So far, we have found that their findings are very accurate. If we decide to implement it and turn it on for all cases, or at least for all high-critical and high-risk issues, it will probably reduce the workload on our human analysts. Seemplicity offers three best features. One is the option to deduplicate alerts between security platforms, which is something we do not have the capability for anywhere else. The second is managing the remediation queues, which is truly useful; it ensures that developers and the security team receive the right tickets in the right amount, with the right priority and right details, and then tracking them is very useful. It is a single point to manage all our security activity. The deduplication feature helps my team day-to-day by reducing the amount of work. When we examine security incidents, usually one security flaw—a new zero-day vulnerability in a library we use—triggers alerts across different systems, from our vulnerability management platforms to our real-time runtime monitoring systems to our Wiz platform, showing us the same issue across multiple instances. This might generate hundreds of different alerts. Seemplicity allows us to deduplicate them into one single action that a security person or developer needs to perform to fix all of these alerts. Instead of having 100 or 200 different tickets opened to different teams, we have a very specific team that receives one single ticket to solve it all. When we started with Seemplicity, we saw an 85% reduction in the number of tickets through deduplication, and that is significant for our teams who are swamped with issues. Seemplicity has positively impacted our organization overall by reducing the number of tickets that are opened, allowing the team to really focus on what is important. We have less noise, so we are very focused, and using this tool has helped us reduce the number of vulnerabilities and issues we address. We are at the point where we have zero critical issues and probably less than ten high-risk issues, which we are constantly addressing and will likely resolve soon. We are also beginning to tackle medium and low-risk issues, which we never could before. Having this deduplication reduction helps us really focus on advancing our security posture.

Risk-based workflows have transformed how our teams prioritize and track critical vulnerabilities
One important area for improvement could be reporting flexibility and dashboard customization, as this would need to align with specific organizational requirements. I believe it could be better. Additionally, UI simplification and more customization around workflows and reporting would further enhance the analyst experience. Improvements in executive reporting, more customizable dashboards, and deeper workflow flexibility would enhance operational usability further. Vulcan Cyber handles scalability well in our organization. It maintains stability for visibility and remediation tracking, avoiding the need for additional storage, as it is cloud-based. It scales well in our environment, even as vulnerability data and assets grow significantly.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"TruRisk Insights is the most important innovation they've released this year."
"The scalability is good as well. I would rate it ten out of ten."
"The agent and agentless scanning in TotalCloud, particularly the FlexScan method, is incredibly valuable. With traditional scanning approaches, we had to give IP ranges and whitelist IPs. All that is now simplified. FlexScan requires minimal intervention, and after configuration, it automatically collects data and performs necessary scans."
"It is a cloud-native app that integrates with both IaaS and SaaS. It seamlessly integrates with other platforms."
"I found the initial setup user-friendly."
"TotalCloud offers a comprehensive suite of features, including EDR, XDR, and TrueRisk, providing a centralized platform for managing vulnerabilities and security risks."
"Qualys TotalCloud provides a single, prioritized view of risk, reducing the workload associated with consolidating multiple sources for risk prioritization."
"The best feature would be the ability to create policies. It is easy to control and update policies as required."
"When we started with Seemplicity, we saw an 85% reduction in the number of tickets through deduplication, and that is significant for our teams who are swamped with issues."
"The interface of Vulcan Cyber is intuitive with a lot of information about vulnerabilities, which helps in classifying and analyzing threats. We have a good view of assets and vulnerabilities. It helps to do good threat analysis because we can see exactly what the threat is and assess it accordingly."
"I find the ability to consolidate information from multiple vulnerability scanners into a single source valuable."
"It has allowed us to bring together multiple sources of information from different signal sources into a single point."
"The automation capabilities using the Vulcan API platform or the API feature allow me to easily automate scripts and reports and schedule them."
"Out of the three solutions I've used, Vulcan Cyber is the superior option."
"Now that the solution is onboarded, we are saving a lot of time. We're saving roughly four to ten hours a week."
"I was part of the initial deployment. It was pretty easy. To fully deploy, it took about three or four weeks."
"One of the features that I find valuable is the ability to bifurcate the report according to the many options available."
 

Cons

"There is a lack of data segregation according to criticality or inventory."
"I would appreciate additional integration options to connect Qualys TotalCloud with our other vulnerability management tools."
"In a future release, I suggest that zero-day vulnerabilities should be predicted in advance using AI technologies. The system is not 100% secure yet, so proactive threat hunting could be enhanced to be more proactive than the current system."
"The downside is only in container security, but it has not been a long time since they introduced these models."
"Qualys TotalCloud has the potential to improve by integrating a hybrid platform for comprehensive management of both on-premises and cloud infrastructures."
"I think Qualys TotalCloud needs to improve its handling of zero-day vulnerabilities and supply chain management because modern ransomware attacks not only target prime critical infrastructures but also the supply chain system."
"A feature improvement could be the inclusion of Windows OS support for container security, as it is currently only supported for Linux."
"The vulnerability part is good, but the policy compliance module needs improvement because it involves a lot of manual work. Specifically, the remediation part of the controls requires enhancements."
"Every tool, including Seemplicity, can improve, and I think it needs to further enhance its deduplication capabilities and understand how to integrate with more security tools, especially as new AI security tools emerge."
"Mainly, what I would like from them is more maintenance of the different connectors they have in the platform."
"The performance is bad. The query and the UI are always slow, and it's quite frustrating. Vulcan is trying to solve this with a newer design. The dashboard is also crowded. It pulls in all this raw information that you need to filter. Vulcan has filtering capabilities, but they're hard to manage. The labels aren't very clear, so you need to do things by trial and error. It's not as easy as other tools we've been using."
"There are several areas needing improvement. The product helps, but the reporting relies heavily on Power BI. It is limited to graphical views and requires additional filtering, posing operational challenges."
"It would be extremely helpful to have a community group around the product."
"Their support is good, but there are some flaws as well."
"It was a rough year in terms of setup. I had to set it up and onboard it. It was a significant effort from my side at least."
"Initially, when onboarding Vulcan Cyber, the setup and configuration was more complex than expected with a user-friendly approach. This aspect can be enhanced."
"Monitoring of the evolution of campaigns and perhaps having more customized options for monitoring them would be great."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"The cost is high, but it meets our organizational needs."
"Qualys TotalCloud is expensive, but it offers a premier solution with no headaches."
"Its price seems higher compared to other tools, but it is worth it. If they could adjust the pricing and make it comparable with other tools, that would be great."
"Qualys TotalCloud is cost-efficient and was selected for its value compared to other products."
"It isn't cheap, but it's reasonable. It helps us to manage things with very few resources."
"Qualys TotalCloud is expensive."
"I am not sure about the pricing. From what I understand, it is a bit on the higher side, but I do not have the exact numbers."
"As a middle management member, I do not have direct pricing knowledge, but based on the knowledge from our meetings, its pricing is competitive."
Information not available
"Our leadership knows better about the pricing. As per my knowledge, which might not be accurate, its price can come down."
"Its pricing is quite fair compared to what is out there in the market, especially compared to the tool from Microsoft. It is a SaaS platform that has an annual cost, so it is something that is already used by many companies. It is quite affordable."
