Find out what your peers are saying about Tenable, Wiz, Check Point Software Technologies and others in Vulnerability Management."This product provides a really nice visualization of the infrastructure, including network topology, firewalls, etc."
"The CloudGuard for Cloud Intelligence tool has several significant features that provide security to our company."
"The posture management and remediation features are the most valuable. We use GSL Builder to build custom rules in alignment with our organization's policies. CloudGuard has canned rules using multiple standard frameworks, but we also have additional rules."
"We like the ability to investigate, analyze, and generate reports."
"Cloud security posture management is the feature we've been using the longest."
"It saves time because I can look across the organization. Instead of checking 50 different accounts atomically and spending 15 minutes investigating each, I can spend 15 minutes exploring all 50 accounts. It allows me to quickly look across the org for similar problems when one comes up. That's a huge time saver."
"People implementing this solution are concerned with addressing a significant risk, and within the AWS realm, this tool does de-risk substantially."
"It presents a real-time database that is always updated."
"The most valuable features of the solution stem from the fact that it offers stability and scalability while being a very secure product."
"It's much faster and more secure than legacy solutions. It is also quite stable and scalable as well. We are able to see all the traffic in one place."
"This solution provides a DLP on the cloud and very few people have a scanning device for data at rest."
"To quarantine and clean a malware file provides a lot of security."
"The users can securely access any cloud data centers or cloud platforms. In terms of the features, it has all the features that Palo Alto Next-Generation Firewall has. It is also very stable and scalable."
"We're now able to go after contracts that require a Zero Trust solution and Prisma's other technology solutions."
"The tool's consolidation is pretty quick."
"It protects all app traffic so that users can gain access to all apps. Unlike other solutions that only work from ports 80 and 443, which are predominantly for web traffic, Prisma Access covers all protocols and works on all traffic patterns... The most sophisticated attacks can arise from sources that are not behind 80/443."
"The support it provides is not very good. They should improve it since we have had several setbacks due to support issues."
"I'd like to see more advanced encryption for local features, which is not present right now."
"The support must be more effective."
"Their service needs improvement."
"The user interface could be improved. Sometimes, the visibility is not immediately available for the environment. We have the native servers that come with the solutions, but we cannot see them in the Check Point log. Another issue is with the integrated file monitoring. It would make sense to have stuff like file integrity monitoring and malware scanning available within this module because we don't want to integrate another product."
"The price of this solution should be reduced so that it is more affordable to scale."
"The rules are not well-tuned, and many of them generate false positives or nonsensical results."
"The license cost is expensive and has room for improvement."
"Prisma's integration between operational technology and IT should be more seamless. Right now, it requires additional setup and maintenance."
"They automatically update and they should give us time to fully understand what they're updating so that we can make sure it doesn't impact production."
"There is some particular traffic that the security team wants to filter out and apply their own policies and they cannot."
"Dependencies of applications sometimes is a bit confusing."
"It wasn't so satisfying to work with it. There is room for improvement in the policy management. It is difficult to cover the entire scenery through Palo Alto products."
"My clients would like to see a more feature-rich product."
"Lacks a hybrid model which has API plus in-line security."
"Sometimes, we encountered a portal crash. When we told Palo Alto they said it might be the browser or cache, but I think they need to improve it on their side."
