All-in-One Platform That Simplifies Cloud Security and Compliance
What do you like best about the product?
It is an amazing platform as how it pulls everything together in one place. We don't need to juggling separate tools for cloud security, workload monitoring and compliance, it helped us in giving us single view that actually make sense.
What do you dislike about the product?
Overall it's an amazing platform but one thing that i didn't like much about is that some part of it feels a bit heavy and slow to move through and it happens when particularly you are trying to drill down into specific thing.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
It has helped us in many ways and specific if i would say then it has cut through a lot of guesswork that comes with cloud security. Now no need of bouncing between different tools to understand what's going on as it helps in giving clear picture of workloads, configurations and potential risks all in one place.
Effortless Setup with Stellar Features
What do you like best about the product?
I found Lacework FortiCNAPP incredibly smooth to set up, which was neither tricky nor difficult at all. This ease of installation was something I deeply appreciated. During my hackathon experience, it effectively helped me in publishing my app and mimicking a production-level scenario for my project. This showed me its potential to be a great tool for application development and project presentation. I also loved the peer review feature, which provided authentic previews that were immensely helpful in decision-making. The platform’s associations with reputed partners like G2, HubSpot, and Salesforce highlighted its well-established and trustworthy nature. Additionally, I remember the features like vulnerability management and the alerting and prioritizing capabilities as excellent facets of Lacework FortiCNAPP. The single entity dashboard offering comprehensive visibility across multi-cloud environments, including AWS, Azure, and Kubernetes, was remarkable, helping greatly in monitoring the security posture. These aspects were impressive and beneficial, making it easy to use and efficient for its purposes.
What do you dislike about the product?
{"I find that the integration experience with Lacework FortiCNAPP could be enhanced. The process of linking it up with specific software tools like Terraform, remediation code, or a normal CI/CD system could feel more comprehensive and streamlined. Improving this aspect could make these integrations more efficient and less cumbersome."}
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Lacework FortiCNAPP helped me with app deployment and mimicking production scenarios during a hackathon, facilitating authentic peer reviews and decision-making.
Improving security insights has been helpful but inconsistent vulnerability tracking needs attention
What is our primary use case?
What is most valuable?
The machine learning capability in Lacework FortiCNAPP is used for threat detection.
Automated policy recommendation helps to improve my security measures in general.
I usually use certain policies in my workspace, like if there are some alerts or something.
Continuous compliance and security monitoring are good, but they need more improvement in the vulnerabilities part.
What needs improvement?
The vulnerability part is not systematically organized; it is all clumsy in the web UI, and it is not user-friendly.
Regarding improvements, the vulnerability part, recent changes with user management, and Fortinet IM coming into place, which is not helpful at all because it cuts out the automation part, are the most important things.
Lacework FortiCNAPP should have a new clean UI and ease of access for the users as that should be the main concern.
There are limitations regarding the scalability of Lacework FortiCNAPP.
There are also more limitations with integrations like GitHub or any other pipeline, CI/CD, or ISD.
It is glitchy and works well only sometimes, and most of the time, the reports or other things are not properly calculated or circulated with the teams.
For how long have I used the solution?
I have been using Lacework FortiCNAPP for about two years.
What do I think about the stability of the solution?
The threat response time is good; we haven't faced any major threats as of now.
What do I think about the scalability of the solution?
There are limitations regarding the scalability of Lacework FortiCNAPP.
How are customer service and support?
Technical support from Fortinet is good; I get feedback and responses quickly.
How was the initial setup?
The installation of Lacework FortiCNAPP is quite complicated, especially regarding the settings.
We face some issues with troubleshooting the settings.
Which other solutions did I evaluate?
I see some big differences between Lacework FortiCNAPP and Microsoft.
The ease of access is better with Lacework FortiCNAPP, while Microsoft is more complex.
What other advice do I have?
I'm not aware of the pricing because I've seen it with my lead.
If I do these integrations, I see some impact on the DevSecOps workflow.
The integrations, like with GitHub, help with alerts directly over there.
The positive impacts I see from Lacework FortiCNAPP are majorly regarding security itself, but it has a long way to improve; there are many things to improve, and I have had many connects with the team to provide my feedback and requirements.
The review rating for Lacework FortiCNAPP is 6.

Lacework helps us solve visibility and compliance issues in our cloud and container environments.

A lot to improve considering enterprise tools like SonarQube and Snyk, way below Prowler.
What do you like best about the product?
I like the multi cloud feature of Lacework including its high reporting standards.
What do you dislike about the product?
If I am a business owner, I wouldn't only think of cloud security, and then there are many other respects to look into for proper security posture management or vulnerability management. So spending on such a new tool which is yet to make a mark would be a tough choice.

The platform gives our security team the context they need, providing visibility and control over every aspect. The information obtained is excellent, complete coverage of the entire infrastructure. It has also helped us to be decisive in prioritizing our efforts.
