I use Cortex.io for cloud security to check vulnerabilities and for application security to check misalignments, misconfigurations, and open scanning of vulnerabilities in the environment, in the cloud environment. My main use case for Cortex.io is cloud security.
Cloud security has improved as detailed dashboards prioritize vulnerabilities and risks
What is our primary use case?
What is most valuable?
The best features Cortex.io offers are the dashboard, which is very detailed, and the fact that you can run different kinds of testing such as application security testing, vulnerability management testing, and cloud security testing, allowing you to see the levels and rankings of how vulnerable those situations are, including the risk factors.
Out of those features, the dashboard stands out as the most valuable to me because it contains all of the information and analytics that is required.
Cortex.io has positively impacted my organization by helping as an accelerator in fixing a bunch of different code reviews and cloud-based systems, and we also use it for client work just to ensure that everything is properly shipped.
The specific outcomes from using Cortex.io include quicker insights represented by numbers and graphs, allowing us to see the severity level, the number of open vulnerabilities, and the number of open tickets, which helps us check which one to resolve first.
What needs improvement?
For now, I cannot think of how Cortex.io can be improved. I do not have more about the needed improvements, even small things that could make my experience better.

What do I think about the scalability of the solution?
I think Cortex.io is quite scalable for multiple users depending on the task and demand.
How are customer service and support?
I haven't had to reach out to customer support, so I wouldn't know how it is.
How would you rate customer service and support?
Negative
Which solution did I use previously and why did I switch?
I did not previously use a different solution.
How was the initial setup?
I am not sure if we purchased Cortex.io through the AWS Marketplace, but it is provided by Palo Alto.
What about the implementation team?
I cannot really tell if we purchased Cortex.io through the AWS Marketplace, but it is provided by Palo Alto.
What was our ROI?
I have not seen a return on investment, so I cannot share relevant metrics.
What's my experience with pricing, setup cost, and licensing?
I am not sure about my experience with pricing, setup cost, and licensing.
Which other solutions did I evaluate?
Before choosing Cortex.io, I did not evaluate other options because I did not make the decisions; it was a business decision.
What other advice do I have?
I think Cortex.io is a good space to start.
