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 features of the solution are the scanning of all the cloud environments and most of the compliances available in the cloud.""The best feature of AWS Security Hub is that you can get compliance or your cloud's current security posture.""The solution shows us our compliance score.""Easily integrates with third-party tools""Very good at detection and providing real-time alerts.""AWS Security Hub provides comprehensive alerts about potential compliance issues with CIS standards. The integration with third-party tools is another excellent feature. All our workloads are on AWS.""I like that AWS Security Hub currently has several good features, around four or five. The technical support for AWS Security Hub is also responsive.""The most valuable feature of AWS Security Hub is the ability to track when monitoring is not enabled on any of my resources."

"The tool provides centralized visibility through dashboards and alerts, allowing customers to receive reports on cloud vulnerabilities and security posture. Rapid7 InsightCloudSec provides customers with a robust understanding of cloud security.""The tool's most valuable feature is workload protection for Kubernetes and container security. It has agents that identify bugs or lack of security on runtime containers.""I find the security frameworks and security tools valuable. I think they're good in the infrastructure of the code security. They are also good at threat protection.""Agentless scanning is a possible use with Rapid7 InsightCloudSec."

Cons
"The user interface, graphs, and dashboards of the solution could improve in the future. They are not very sophisticated and could use an update.""The solution will only give you insight if you have configure rule enabled. It should work more like Prisma Cloud and Dome9 which have a better approach.""AWS Security Hub should improve the time it takes to update. It takes a long period of time when updating. It can take 24 hours sometimes to update. Additionally, when integrating this solution with more security tools, takes time.""One aspect that could be improved in the solution is its adaptability to different markets and geopolitical restrictions. In certain regions like Thailand, specific services from certain countries or providers, such as AWS or Azure, might be limited or blocked. It also needs improvement in would require configuring the solution more adaptable to AWS infrastructure and function.""Whenever my team gets some alarms from the central team, my team needs to initiate whether it's a real or false trigger. The central team needs to keep adjusting to the parameters or at least the concerned IPs, whether it's really from the company's pool of IPs, so the trigger process can be improved. In the next release of AWS Security Hub, I'd like a better dashboard that could result in better alert visibility.""The solution should be easier to learn and use""The solution lacks self-sufficiency.""Adding SIEM features would be beneficial because of the limited customization of AWS Security Hub."

More AWS Security Hub Cons →

"Technical support could be better. It could also be easier, more user-friendly, and intuitive. The API keys aren't easy to understand, and the cloud layouts aren't intuitive and user-friendly. We should be able to integrate IM governance and APIs into non-compliant workloads like legacy solutions.""There are a lot of other solutions in the market, not only providing the features of a CSPM, but also CNAPP.""The tool needs to improve its documentation.""Rapid7 InsightCloudSec could be better at showing dashboards for virtual firewalls and appliances. Compared to other solutions like Palo Alto, this area is not as good. So, they should work on improving this for virtual devices."
