Still young, but definitely capable product.

  • March 31, 2023
  • Review provided by G2

What do you like best about the product?
Visibility into the activities in the cloud and on the hosts. Malicious activity can quickly be traced to it's origin. A lot of useful data on the assets and relations.
What do you dislike about the product?
Vulnerabilities in containers and on host do not provide actionable remediation recommendations (eg. upgrading the base image), they provide a list of vulnerable binaries to be fixed manually.
Alerts generate a lot of false positives to the point that severities below high are not really worth looking into.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Post mortem analysis (parsing through cloudtrail logs is simple and effective). Visibility into the resources across the organization, anomaly detection and investigation.

Great for Cloud Posture

  • March 07, 2023
  • Review provided by G2

What do you like best about the product?
Lacework has been great at analyzing our cloud environments and making us aware of potential compliance issues.
What do you dislike about the product?
The GUI has been a bit rough, in my experience. We have experienced slow responses that seemed to be related to the GUI as well as a few other issues that may have been GUI related.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Lacework provides in-depth reviews of our cloud posture, and does a great job displaying these items in a friendly, organized manner.

Lacework review

  • February 22, 2023
  • Review provided by G2

What do you like best about the product?
Lacework gives details about any security vulnerabilities that are caused by the provision of the resources.
Also, Lacework can be added as a plugin to slack which gives instant notifications.
What do you dislike about the product?
Lacework details how to fix the vulnerabilities, but sometimes they aren't obvious what to fix. We will need more information on all ways we can fix those issues.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Lacework is helping me to know all the security compliance issues that are present when provisioning AWS resources.

Some great features

What do you like best about the product?
Compliance and Vulnerability management of the product are awesome. Our teams use it throughout to ensure our estate is up to scratch.
What do you dislike about the product?
The IDS is a little frustrating, I don't seem to have much configurability in how much Lacework can and can't detect, and therefore I'm not able to measure it as properly as I'd like to compared to manual IDS systems where I can measure against MITRE etc.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
The security compliance of our estate and information is extremely important to us, so we utilise Lacework to resolve issues around best practice and configuration in our space that we may otherwise overlook, we know it can only take a few misconfigurations to cause huge problems.

UI could be more intuitive. It's hard to use it in intuitive way without reading documentation because of similar naming tabs and organization of the tabs

Account cloud compliance

The analytics from Lacework are very hard to track down as the information is very vague.

  • November 08, 2022

What do you like best about the product?
The dashboard is very well organized, and drilling down to an event is easy. This includes the current enhancements to the dashboard. The improvements are visually appealing.
What do you dislike about the product?
The events we get from Lacework lack context. We must rely on other solutions and communications with other departments to determine the validity of the alerts and warnings. At that point, they are usually false positives or non-malicious traffic. There is little flexibility to approve or white list traffic deemed non-malicious, and alerts will still be triggered. Our understanding is that this is an architectural constraint.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
The solution was purchased to help us determine legitimate vs. non-legitimate traffic on our network. As this is not working as anticipated it is not truly benefiting us.

Pretty decent threat detection SaaS

  • May 19, 2022
  • Review provided by G2

What do you like best about the product?
Pretty insightful report/data. Fairly robust in the information that it gives you and pretty easy to parse down to a more specific set of data that you are looking for.
What do you dislike about the product?
They do have a lot of different ways to deploy the agent, but they were fairly involved and a little too granular in the type - e.g. you can't deploy the agent and it intelligently installs the correct "version". Manually installing is incredibly easy, but automating that process leaves something to be desired.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
We were having issues getting reporting on vulnerable systems. Not so much, hey you've been getting attacked via this port or whatever. But if there are vulnerabilities IN the actual VM, we now have good insight into this.

What do you dislike about the product?

We are using it for cloudtrail and config.

Jira integration requires some love

  • May 17, 2022
  • Review provided by G2

What do you like best about the product?
GCP integration works rather well, but there's a bit of work to be done regarding autopilot Kubernetes and infrastructure as code provisions (we're using pulumi).
What do you dislike about the product?
As my description points out, we had trouble synchronizing solved issues in our Jira boards, because Lacework does not ensure a two-way integration. This implies that we have to manually close tickets.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Lacework is helping us discover cloud vulnerabilities as we build our tech stack, which is great. However, some the issues raised, do not necessarily represent a security problem.
