Find out what your peers are saying about Tenable, Wiz, SentinelOne and others in Vulnerability Management."It helps us to analyze vulnerabilities way before they get installed in production and the web. It gives us more security in the production environment."
"It presents great visibility of the traffic flow of our cloud, providing information on what data and users are circulating and in the event of a threat, it immediately identifies them by providing detailed and granular information from our entire environment."
"The feature that I value the most about Check Point CloudGuard CNAPP is the possibility of checking compliance with different standards. This compliance check can be performed for each subscription or service that we have on all the different cloud providers that we use."
"The most valuable feature is the ability to apply common tools across all accounts."
"The most valuable features of CloudGuard CNAPP are its reporting capabilities for aggregating vulnerability information and scoring."
"The rulesets and the findings are valuable. The actual core functionality of it and the efficacy of events are great."
"This solution helps to keep everything visible, and it also alerts us if something is wrong, such as if someone opened extra ports or services that they are not supposed to. This is a valuable tool for monitoring and maintaining our cloud environment."
"Gives us centralized firewall management for both Windows and Linux distros. Also provides a clear view of the security configurations and connections across environments (DMZ, external and internal networks)."
"FortiWeb offers machine learning in the latest product. This fixed many problems. There are no false negatives."
"FortiWeb offers a good price for the marketplace. In the Sri Lankan market, it's hard to find high-end products that can match FortiWeb's pricing. For high-end solutions, the price is always extremely high."
"We were able to protect our web servers from outside attacks."
"The most valuable feature of Fortinet FortiWeb is the reports and the AI-based features."
"The GUI is user-friendly."
"High-performance and detection engines, provide a high rate of exposure of web attacks."
"FortiWeb provides the level of security we need at an excellent price point. It's easy to deploy and operationally efficient."
"When it comes to blocking unknown threats and attacks, I would give it the highest score possible. We first started using AWS and its Web Application Firewalls. That was okay, but it was quite a manual process to keep it up to date, whereas Fortinet is always up to date, and the default rules or the modules that you can turn on are very easy to use."
"The tool has a lot of potential, but today, it lacks a lot of Scripts/Bots for Azure."
"The tool should incorporate more use cases like improving security scores. It should also improve documentation."
"I strongly advise that the multi-layered security system of Check Point often undergoes updates and new versions keep coming."
"I'd like to see more advanced encryption for local features, which is not present right now."
"Scalability, particularly in workload protection, is an area that needs improvement."
"The technical support could be better, but I do not know of any other needed improvements."
"The guidelines to implement or to link with the clouds are not complete."
"I’d like to see more integration with third-party tools. For example, it would be helpful to have an integration between Dome9 and ServiceNow to manage security incidents and security changes."
"Fortinet FortiWeb needs to improve the way it's configured. Common services like publishing exchange should be done in one click only."
"The automation piece can be improved. Although they say it can be automated very well, there is still manual work. Its usability should be improved in terms of automation because we want to build an infrastructure with code, but you can't do that easily with this solution. If they can give us APIs in the firewalls that we can tap into, it would be perfect."
"If the price was lower, it would be a bit more attractive, as an option, to the customers."
"Fortinet FortiWeb is not scalable. You'll need more budget to change the hardware."
"The initial setup is complex."
"The solution could improve by being able to handle different use cases."
"The dashboard evaluating the performance of each application connected to the web app's firewall is quite helpful, but the tool is only available in application performance management. So I think if Fortinet could better integrate that particular feature, it would add a lot of value to the product."
"We have had problems with deployments where we've had to contact technical support to resolve them."
