Featured Reviews

Andrew W - PeerSpot reviewer
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.
Utsav Sharma - PeerSpot reviewer
Maintain operational efficiency by detecting misconfigurations and vulnerabilities
The vulnerability scanning feature is excellent as it supports various container capabilities like Docker and Sharma. It also offers repository scanning in the source code domain, allowing pre-push code scans. The misconfiguration detection works well for CloudFormation, Docker files, and Terraform. Its compliance support, like NIST, ensures that configurations align with standards. Trivy helps me significantly detect misconfigurations missed by the ops engineers or in Terraform by the naked eye. It ensures that my deployments are free of misconfigurations and vulnerabilities.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"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."
"I rate SentinelOne Singularity Cloud Security ten out of ten."
"PingSafe 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."
"SentinelOne Singularity Cloud Security offers several valuable features, most notably the rapid vulnerability notifications that provide timely alerts regarding our infrastructure."
"The most valuable aspects of PingSafe are its alerting system and the remediation guidance it provides."
"We use the infrastructure as code scanning, which is good."
"I would rate SentinelOne Singularity Cloud Security a ten out of ten."
"It is open-source."
"I appreciate Trivy for being open-source and not requiring any payment."
"I can see vulnerabilities in the images of any applications deployed in the Kubernetes environment or as container applications."
"It's customizable, allowing me to add any rules and format HTML templates as I wish."
"Trivy's open source nature and wide functionality are incredibly valuable."
"Trivy is particularly useful for checking if Docker images have critical vulnerabilities before they reach production."
"Trivy is easy to integrate with CI/CD and can be installed on desktops to scan images."
"I rate Trivy a nine out of ten."
 

Cons

"We've found a lot of false positives."
"It would be really helpful if the solution improves its agent deployment process."
"They can work on policies based on different compliance standards."
"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."
"After closing an alert in Cloud Native Security, it still shows as unresolved."
"The recommended actions aren't always specific, so it might suggest recommendations that don't apply to the particular infrastructure code I'm reviewing."
"In some cases, the rules are strictly enforced but do not align with real-world use cases."
"The main area for improvement I want to see is for the platform to become less resource-intensive. Right now, it can slow down processes on the machine, and it would be a massive improvement if it were more lightweight than it currently is."
"Trivy can improve by providing an output in PDF format."
"For malware detection, I need to use two tools: Trivy as my anomaly scanner and ClamAV. I am integrating these two tools into the CI pipeline. If both malware and anomaly detection could be managed by one tool, I would not need to depend on two tools."
"In our CI/CD pipelines, Trivy lacks built-in functionality for report analysis."
"A dynamic scanning capability during runtime would be a significant advantage."
"Currently, the container image scanning is static. A dynamic scanning capability during runtime would be a significant advantage."
"The only problem is that Trivy does not support reporting features such as generating reports in CSV, which is useful for auditing and reporting."
"In our CI/CD pipelines, Trivy lacks built-in functionality for report analysis."
"The reporting could be a little better."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"The features included in PingSafe justify its price point."
"It was reasonable pricing for me."
"PingSafe is less expensive than other options."
"It is not that expensive. There are some tools that are double the cost of PingSafe. It is good on the pricing side."
"It is a little expensive. I would rate it a four out of ten for pricing."
"PingSafe is fairly priced."
"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."
"SentinelOne is quite costly compared to other security platforms."
