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.
Santiago Gomez - PeerSpot reviewer
Has improved the organization's PCI compliance with data loss prevention
I use the solution on a Macintosh computer and it has issues and does not work when I try to log in from the Safari Browser, but it works fine when I log in from the Google Chrome browser. The console has issues when the login is done through a Safari Browser. The console has to be more competitive and the compatibility of the browser needs to be better. I want to know about Skyhigh's competitiveness with other brands and about the vulnerability assessment and micro segmentations. I know Skyhigh has other products, but right now, I am studying what this new product is about. They only have English support, so I would like for them to add some Spanish support.
Md. Olid Hasan Bhuiyan - PeerSpot reviewer
Provides a good view of the sequence and offers in-depth visibility into my infrastructure
I needed to identify the sequence and frequency of system calls for a specific system. Sysdig provided this information readily. However, analyzing frequency proved more challenging. As far as I know, Sysdig Monitor lacks functionality to directly obtain system call frequency for certain files. Therefore, I had to capture a screenshot of the relevant data from Sysdig Monitor and then manually extract the text. A built-in Sysdig feature to retrieve system call frequency for specific website actions would greatly enhance its usefulness. I had difficulty installing Sysdig Monitor on Windows.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"The most valuable feature of PingSafe is its integration with most of our technology stack, specifically all of our cloud platforms and ticketing software."
"When creating cloud infrastructure, Cloud Native Security evaluates the cloud security parameters and how they will impact the organization's risk. It lets us know whether our security parameter conforms to international industry standards. It alerts us about anything that increases our risk, so we can address those vulnerabilities and prevent attacks."
"I rate SentinelOne Singularity Cloud Security ten out of ten."
"It is pretty easy to integrate with this platform. When properly integrated, it monitors end-to-end."
"We really appreciate the Slack integration. When we have an incident, we get an instant notification. We also use Joe Sandbox, which Singularity can integrate with, so we can verify if a threat is legitimate."
"You not only get to know about vulnerabilities and misconfigurations but also some of the actual"
"The user interface is well-designed and easy to navigate."
"Cloud Native Security is a tool that has good monitoring features."
"DLP policies and anomalies."
"Box API features with DLP capabilities."
"The solution performs well."
"Improves creation of security alerts on web proxy logs by having a separate system interpret said logs."
"In terms of their compatibility with major cloud providers, in terms of their abilities, capabilities, and features, they exceed everyone's capabilities in the CASB market."
"Without Skyhigh, we had zero visibility, but now we are aware of so much more."
"We have gained a deep insight into our Shadow IT usage as well as the different activities involved in Office 365."
"The management is very good."
"Sysdig Monitor impressed me with its in-depth visibility into my infrastructure."
"Docker containers are completely supported, kind of like "first class citizens"."
"The ability to stop/pause and capture logs when something happens is the most valuable feature."
 

Cons

"I would like PingSafe's detections to be openly available online instead of only accessible through their portal. Other tools have detections that are openly available without going through the tool."
"A few YouTube videos could be helpful. There isn't a lot of information out there to look at."
"In the Analytics section, there is a tab for showing the severity of open issues by day. There are three options: by week, by month, and for more than thirty days. However, despite being aware of many issues open for more than thirty days, it shows no data available."
"In addition to our telecom and Slack channels, it would be helpful to receive Cloud Native Security security notifications in Microsoft Teams."
"With Cloud Native Security, we can't selectively enable or disable alerts based on our specific use case."
"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."
"The Kubernetes scanning on the Oracle Cloud needs to be improved. It's on the roadmap. AWS has this capability, but it's unavailable for Oracle Cloud."
"I'd like to see better onboarding documentation."
"The services take some time to load. It would be helpful if the loading time was reduced."
"Updates sometimes introduce bugs, and Skyhigh Security needs to revalidate its versions before rolling out updates."
"McAfee needs to add more products that could be managed from the cloud."
"They could be integrated with CASB. I think normally McAfee has this solution in the cloud, but for us the best is on-premise."
"The cloud needs improvement with respect to DLP."
"User interface could be more intuitive."
"There isn't really any aspect that is lacking."
"Skyhigh Security is complex to manage. While it should ideally be more user-friendly, customers often find themselves having to manage it post-deployment."
"I had difficulty installing Sysdig Monitor on Windows."
""Events" reporting (errors, crashes, etc.) is not clear at all in a Mesos environment (i.e., it's not clear what specific container is the one that went down). In a Docker Compose environment, it may be way better."
"It is needs to automate the actions to take when an alert is triggered."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"As a partner, we receive a discount on the licenses."
"It is cheap."
"Singularity Cloud Workload Security's licensing and price were cheaper than the other solutions we looked at."
"The pricing for PingSafe in India was more reasonable than other competitors."
"I understand that SentinelOne is a market leader, but the bill we received was astronomical."
"It is a little expensive. I would rate it a four out of ten for pricing."
"We found it to be fine for us. Its price was competitive. It was something we were happy with. We are not a Fortune 500 company, so I do not know how pricing scales at the top end, but for our cloud environment, it works very well."
"While SentinelOne Singularity Cloud Security offers robust protection, its high cost may be prohibitive for small and medium-sized businesses."
"The solution's hardware is expensive."
"Skyhigh provided a FedRAMP solution, tokenization, a better shadow IT capability, and lower cost."
"They definitely charge a huge amount. All the security service providers charge a huge amount."
"The tool is not expensive."
"Pricing is not out of reach."
"The licensing fees are based on what environments you are monitoring."
"There is an annual licensing cost to use McAfee Web Gateway. The purchasing of licensing can be difficult for the government sector."
"This is an expensive product, although it is made for larger enterprises and not for small organizations."
"Sysdig Monitor is not expensive."
