We asked business professionals to review the solutions they use.
Here are some excerpts of what they said:
Pros
"Finding out if your infrastructure is secure is a valuable feature.""Very good at detection and providing real-time alerts.""Cloudposse is a valuable feature as it guarantees my security.""It's a security posture management tool from AWS. Basically, it identifies misconfigurations, similar to Trusted Advisor but on a larger scale.""AWS Security Hub has very good integration features. It allows for AWS native services integration, and it helps us to integrate some of the services outside of AWS. They have partners, such as Amazon Preferred Network Partners (APN). If you have different security tools around APN, we can integrate those findings with AWS Security Hub reducing the need to refer to different portals or different UIs. You can have AWS Security Hub act as a single common go-to dashboard.""Currently, our organization utilizes AWS for various purposes, including SaaS (Software as a Service), PaaS (Platform as a Service), and hosting applications in the cloud. We develop our applications and use AWS services as a platform for basic functions and secondary development needs. Additionally, we rely on PaaS for accounting services. Approximately, 50% of our applications are hosted in the cloud environment, making it a significant part of our current setup.""I really like the seamless integration with the AWS account structure. It can even be made mandatory as part of the landing zone. These are great features. And there's a single pane of glass for the entire account.""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."

"Ermetic can provide super visibility for our cloud environment (we are using AWS).""The key benefit lies in having the largest and most up-to-date database. When it comes to using any Tenable product, it excels in finding vulnerabilities and providing analytics.""The product's visibility and remediation work fine for me.""If you have multi-cloud tenancy using AWS and Azure, you can have a single dashboard where you can onboard all the cloud infrastructure and have visibility into it.""The solution’s vulnerability management feature has helped us identify and mitigate risks well.""The tool alerts us on depreciating performance or deficiencies of our web application. It helps us react on time."

Cons
"We need more granular-level customizations to enable or disable the rules in AWS Security Hub.""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.""The solution lacks self-sufficiency.""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.""Although AWS Security Hub does a periodic scan of your overall infrastructure, it doesn't do it in real time.""It's not user-friendly. Too much going on, too many unnecessary findings, not very visual. You can't do much compared to other similar tools that are cheaper and better.""Adding SIEM features would be beneficial because of the limited customization of AWS Security Hub.""From an improvement perspective, there is a need to add more compliance since, right now, AWS Security Hub only provides four to five compliances to control the tool."

More AWS Security Hub Cons →

"If Tenable Cloud Security offers a complete Cnapp solution with CWP, CIEM, and Waap security, it will be able to compete with other competitors.""There is a need for the support team to improve their response time since it is one of the areas where the product's technical team has certain shortcomings.""The product must provide more features.""I do think there might be room for more integrations. This could allow for further customization and flexibility, essentially offering different functionality options to accommodate various budgets.""I didn't find anything that wasn't useful or needed to be added.""Ermetic needs to improve its security scanning. I would like to see more dynamic graphical forms."
