Offers advanced components to safeguard your multi-cloud environment

  • November 08, 2023
  • Review provided by PeerSpot

What is our primary use case?

Cloud Native Security offers the flexibility to create a customized solution that fits our specific needs. It's a comprehensive tool encompassing the central elements—PSC, PPP, and more.

What is most valuable?

It is advantageous in terms of time-saving and cost reduction.

What needs improvement?

There's an array of upcoming versions with numerous features to be incorporated into the roadmap. Customers particularly appreciate the service's emphasis on intensive security, especially the secret scanning aspect. During the proof of concept (POC) phase, the system is required to gather logs from the customer's environment. This process entails obtaining specific permissions, especially in terms of gateway access. While most permissions for POC are manageable, the need for various permissions may need improvement, especially in the context of security.

For how long have I used the solution?

I have been using Cloud Native Security for the past six months.

What do I think about the stability of the solution?

I'd rate it an eight. It's a reliable solution that the organization is increasingly adopting for its robust features and security.

What do I think about the scalability of the solution?

It is quite scalable. I would rate it an eight out of ten.

How are customer service and support?

They are helpful.

How would you rate customer service and support?

Positive

Which solution did I use previously and why did I switch?

Prisma Cloud seemed limited in its solutions and had to acquire other companies for broader offerings, while Cloud Native Security provided more comprehensive and tailor-made solutions, especially in terms of authentic security features.

How was the initial setup?

The setup isn’t easy because it doesn't support Azure. It's something on the roadmap. It doesn't limit itself to a particular hypervisor.

What about the implementation team?

For now, we don't handle the maintenance. It's all managed by the vendor for our customers.

What's my experience with pricing, setup cost, and licensing?

It's not expensive. The product is in its initial growth stages and appears more competitive compared to others. It comes in different variants, and I believe the enterprise version costs around $55 per user per year. I would rate the pricing a five, somewhere fairly moderate.

What other advice do I have?

I would rate it 8 out of 10.

Provides excellent workload telemetry, hunting capabilities, and deep visibility

  • September 28, 2023
  • Review provided by PeerSpot

What is our primary use case?

We use Singularity Cloud Workload Security for our production and build workloads.

We implemented the solution to simplify the deployment of forensic tools, including EDR, into our cloud infrastructure, where it may be difficult to install an agent.

We have a hybrid deployment, with an estimated 8,000 to 70,000 cloud workloads. We serve a customer base of nearly one billion people, including 700 million current EA subscribers. Handling this workload is no small feat. The estimate is so broad because we do not own or control every AWS, Azure, or GCP account; studios use this infrastructure without our help. We are still in the discovery phase of trying to determine the exact number of workloads. There are thousands of Kubernetes clusters.

How has it helped my organization?

Singularity Cloud Workload Security's real-time threat detection capabilities are good. We recompeted SentinelOne against fifteen or twenty different AV vendors over the course of 2018 and 2019 and found SentinelOne to be superior in virtually every possible way.

Forensic capabilities are now excellent. When we started, we had a contractual agreement with SentinelOne to improve deep visibility to match our current toolset, Carbon Black Response. Over the course of two years, they delivered everything we could get from Carbon Black and even more.

The visibility of workload telemetry is excellent, and the hunting capabilities are second to none.

When no human intervention is required Singularity Cloud Workload Security detects and remediates nearly instantaneously.

Our MTTD is sub 30 days.

Our MTTR is seven days after detection for most instances.

The interoperability with third-party solutions is great.

What is most valuable?

The most valuable feature is the ability to gain deep visibility into the workloads inside containers.

What needs improvement?

Sometimes the Storyline ID is a bit wacky. It's not that the data is inaccurate, but the threat item that's flagged can sometimes point to a storyline that's not relevant to the hunting object we're looking for. In short, Singularity Cloud Workload Security can sometimes take us on a roundabout way to get to where we want to be when using Storyline ID.

I would like a public repository for CWPP. Having to request a script from SentinelOne to deploy CWPP is not ideal, and this is true for all of the tools, including the Linux agent. Without a public repository, when a deployment team needs something like a GPG key to validate the image, we have to request a signed copy of the software. This is not ideal because it removes our ability to self-serve. Therefore, if I had to ask for anything to make it easier, it would be signed images that are GPG signed and a public repository where we can get the bits from.

For how long have I used the solution?

I have been using Singularity Cloud Workload Security for over four years.

What do I think about the stability of the solution?

Singularity Cloud Workload Security is stable. No lag, no crashing, no downtime. The joy of running as a container is that it doesn't break the other parts.

What do I think about the scalability of the solution?

The Singularity Cloud Workload Security auto-scaling feature is great.

How are customer service and support?

Technical support is excellent. One of the selling points of SentinelOne is the incredibly good support.

How would you rate customer service and support?

Positive

How was the initial setup?

The initial deployment was straightforward, but only because I had to obtain a script from SentinelOne. I completed the deployment myself.

What's my experience with pricing, setup cost, and licensing?

Our three-year renewal with SentinelOne this year was shockingly expensive. In fact, covering our 50,000 endpoints would have nearly bankrupted most security programs, even well-funded ones like ours. The sticker shock is real. I understand that SentinelOne is a market leader, but the bill we received was astronomical.

Which other solutions did I evaluate?

We evaluated a few application security tools, but CWBB is only a software opportunity. SentinelOne has become our primary solution for all aspects of endpoint security. Therefore, when we considered adding detections for cloud workloads, it made sense to choose SentinelOne as the ideal solution.

What other advice do I have?

I would rate Singularity Cloud Workload Security nine out of ten.

To someone who doesn't think they need CWPP because they already have a continuous security monitoring solution in place, I would say, Consider the old security adage that they are not currently free of malicious items. They have them, but they just don't know where they are.

We have an upgrade policy for maintenance purposes. We need to implement the upgrade policy, but we do this through Chef automation. Writing Chef automation for this can be a bit complex, but it is not impossible.

SentinelOne Cloud Workload Security's ability to be innovative is excellent. I'm a big fan of SentinelOne's API, which has allowed me to develop some creative solutions. I'm actually the only SentinelOne administrator at my organization, so in terms of innovation, it's probably the best tool I've ever used. I've been able to create an automated "one-man army" using SentinelOne.

I recommend deploying a test environment. Do not try to deploy this into an existing environment and test there. It's a bad idea. Not from a SentinelOne perspective, but I'm not much of a Kubernetes expert. I know it can be dangerous, and we tried to do this in a test environment of a live production environment and had a lot of trouble. Not because of SentinelOne, but because of our Kubernetes deployment. Having to complete a bad Kubernetes environment with little knowledge of CWPP basically made getting it working very difficult. So my advice would be to build a clean, industry-standard test environment that can be broken with no risk.

Is able to auto-scale and remediate, as well as save us time

  • September 27, 2023
  • Review provided by PeerSpot

What is our primary use case?

We use Singularity Cloud Workload Security to protect all our servers from malware, both present and future. We also use it to protect our user endpoints, such as workstations and employee laptops.

We recently switched from Windows Defender to SentinelOne endpoint protection after a few of our laptops were infected with malware. SentinelOne has been protecting our laptops, endpoints, and servers for two years now, and it has performed well in internal and external audits.

We currently have a hybrid Active Directory environment. SentinelOne itself is a SaaS-based product, so it is fully cloud-based. However, we need to install agents on all of our endpoints and cloud services.

How has it helped my organization?

Singularity Cloud Workload Security has real-time threat detection capabilities. We have tested it with multiple clients and ourselves, and it has detected malware every time we have been attacked. Compared to other major security vendors, Singularity Cloud Workload Security had the best detection rates for all the malware we threw at it during our proof of concept.

Automated remediation is policy-based, which makes it very useful. The SentinelOne platform gathers all information about how the threat played out and all the changes that were affected on our system. Using this information makes it very easy to remediate all the damage because we know what happened. Automated remediation is amazing and a key differentiator from other competitors.

For Linux kernels, the agent supports almost all platforms, including legacy Windows, macOS, and Linux. We have a few Linux servers, and the mitigation and all the other features work just as well as on the other operating systems.

Using the Deep Visibility Console, we can thoroughly investigate everything that was called or changed on a computer. This gives us visibility into virtually everything that happens on all of our endpoints at all times, in real-time. This has allowed us to find threats that other vendors would have missed. We can also use the Deep Visibility Console to perform threat hunting. For example, if a threat has been moving around our network, we can track it down to see exactly where it is moving to and how it is working.

The historical data record provided by Singularity Cloud Workload Security after an attack is good. For data retention in terms of threats, we have a one-year retention period. This is a long time, and it is very useful for our insurance policies, as we often need to comply with them. For compliance purposes, the one-year retention period is perfect for us. For visibility logs, for example, we are ingesting some logs, and I believe the retention rate is actually fourteen days.

Singularity Cloud Workload Security has reduced our MTTD. Previously, with Defender, it would sometimes fail to detect threats. Now, we detect and remediate many more threats automatically, almost instantaneously. For example, if we download a malware file, we usually cannot even open it because Singularity Cloud Workload Security detects it automatically with a super-fast response time.

Our MTTR is automatic. As soon as a threat is detected, remediation is performed automatically, according to our policy. We can even generate a report of the remediation and all affected files. This allows us to see everything and ensures that remediation is performed quickly.

Singularity Cloud Workload Security has freed up our SOC staff's time to work on other projects. Before, we were considering hiring a 24/7 SOC team, but with SentinelOne's vigilance package, they take care of almost everything for us. We no longer need an employee to monitor logs and threats 24/7.

Since we are freeing up some time from the operations side, our IT administrators and security personnel do not have to constantly monitor the console to see what is happening. Because we trust the product to take care of malware for us, our productivity has definitely increased. We only check the logs once a week.

Singularity Cloud Workload Security works well with other vendors, so we can even have two EDR solutions if we want to. The exclusions can be done through the console, which is very easy to use. It gives us a list of all the applications that we have installed on all our systems and makes it easy to create different types of exclusions. For example, we can create exclusions for performance reasons or to suppress alerts. There are a lot of options, and they are all very easy to use.

What is most valuable?

My favorite feature is Storyline. It creates a neat graph that shows us how any threat played out, in real time. We can see all the information about what was modified or changed on our system, such as files that were modified, created, or deleted, and register keys that were created or edited. For a SOC analyst, this information is super useful. We can deep dive into all the information and see exactly what happened on each computer individually.

The second feature is actually part of the SDR platform, and it provides native integrations with other security software vendors, such as Okta or Azure AD. This allows us to ingest all of our audit logs for security events and to take action on them. For example, we can set up an automation alert so that if a threat is detected on an endpoint, we can automatically take action on our Okta or AD environment, such as locking the account that was signed in or forcing a password reset.

What needs improvement?

I know that SentinelOne is working on additional integrations for their XDR platform, and I would definitely prefer more integrations. I understand that many more integrations are coming soon but by the end of the year. I would like additional integrations. Currently, we have integrations with Azure AD, Okta, Mimecast, and Netscope. Many of our clients and we also use firewalls from Cisco, Juniper, and so on. It would be helpful to be able to retrieve audit logs or actionable items from these firewalls.

For how long have I used the solution?

I have been using Singularity Cloud Workload Security for two years.

What do I think about the stability of the solution?

Singularity Cloud Workload Security is stable, and we have not experienced any downtime.

The stability of Singularity Cloud Workload Security is similar to that of Microsoft Defender.

What do I think about the scalability of the solution?

Singularity Cloud Workload Security is infinitely scalable, with a multi-tenancy feature that allows us to have multiple sites, such as physical sites. For example, if we have two locations, we can easily create admins who have access to only one site or to all sites. It scales really well, regardless of our environment.

The auto-scaling feature is user-friendly. As we install more endpoints, they will simply show up in the console, allowing us to create our own physical sites with their own admins and different policies.

How are customer service and support?

My interaction with technical support was pleasant. They gave me a few tips on how to integrate the new system. They also sent me some documentation, which was already available to me, but they saved me the time of searching for it. They even offered to schedule a team call to discuss the integration and have a team member help us directly. The only downside is that the entire interaction was text-based, so it could be difficult to get a definitive answer to some questions.

How would you rate customer service and support?

Positive

Which solution did I use previously and why did I switch?

We previously used Microsoft Defender, but some of our laptops were infected with malware anyway. Because of this, we had to redeploy all of our laptops. We therefore concluded that the solution was not working as well as it should in terms of detection and response so we switched to Singularity Cloud Workload Security.

How was the initial setup?

Deployment was straightforward. The agent is simple to deploy, and we only need to deploy it to all of our endpoints. It is a simple installation that requires our site token. We can deploy it through group policies, Intune, or any mass deployment software. I completed the deployment myself.

Which other solutions did I evaluate?

We evaluated CrowdStrike, Carbon Black, and Bitdefender, and found that Singularity Cloud Workload Security had a much better remediation process. This is because Singularity Cloud Workload Security uses AI-powered detection and remediation, instead of relying on human analysts. This means that threats can be detected and remediated much faster than with traditional security solutions. Another factor that influenced our decision was pricing. SentinelOne is not too expensive compared to other providers, and it offers a wide range of integrations with other security products.

What other advice do I have?

I would rate Singularity Cloud Workload Security nine out of ten.

Maintenance is minimal, requiring only occasional updates. When a major update is available, we receive an email notification. We then accept and deploy the update to all eligible endpoints through the console.

Singularity Cloud Workload Security is very easy to deploy and has one of the best detection rates among vendors. It has a very user-friendly UI that provides a high-level overview of current threats and system status, as well as the ability to drill down into analytics and threat indicators using the visibility console. It is so user-friendly that anyone can use it, regardless of their expertise level. However, for more experienced users, there is also the option to dig deeper into the data.

Singularity Cloud Workload Security helps us spend less time on threats and more time on our core competency, which is consulting work. This definitely improves our productivity and innovation.

Single agent, user-friendly console, and fair price

  • September 21, 2023
  • Review from a verified AWS customer

What is our primary use case?

We are using it for endpoint detection on all of our EC2 instances and hosts in the cloud. Along with it, we are also going to be using it for AV.

We do not have any EDR protection on our host. We would like to utilize it for AV to put some protection on our host. The pricing for the tool that we are using for AV has gone up, and they are not giving us a lot of things we need. Also, to use their EDR tool, we have to install a secondary agent, whereas, with SentinelOne, everything is included in the same agent.

How has it helped my organization?

Singularity Cloud Workload Security helps with forensics and extra protection on our host. We have not had any incidents where we had to fully use it or fully go into action with it, but we are hoping that it will provide the extra protection that we need to help resolve some blind spots that we have specifically on our hosts.

Singularity Cloud Workload Security has forensic visibility or deep visibility into the Linux kernel, but we have not used it. It is something that we will work on and use with our SOC team and the implementation team if an incident were to ever happen.

The historical data record provided by Singularity Cloud Workload Security after an attack will be useful if an incident happens. It will help us build a timeline of historical reference. It is easy to have it all in one place to build a timeline. We can see from start to finish where the incident started and where it occurred versus having to go in and do things manually by sifting through logs. The fact that SentinelOne is able to have that information or data and a single pane of glass is something that we like about the tool.

Singularity Cloud Workload Security helps to cut down the mean time to detect by having the historical reference and by being able to stop the incident with the hit of a switch. We can see from where it started, which is helpful. When you are an organization managing hundreds of accounts, it is hard to sieve through logs and get that information together, which increases our mean time to detect, whereas with SentinelOne, from the things we have seen and tested out, it seems simple and easy, and we are hoping that it will help us cut down on that time.

We are also hoping that it will reduce our mean time to remediate. We have not come across any actual incident to be able to fully know, but based on what we have seen so far in the tool, it seems it would.

Singularity Cloud Workload Security has not necessarily freed up staff to work on other projects, but it does reduce some time. It helps cut down on things. It does provide an easier capability. We have come from the old-school way of looking at logs. It seems that this tool will provide something much sleeker and easier for our SOC team to use.

Singularity Cloud Workload Security has not yet had much effect on our productivity. We have only had it for two months, but we like what we are seeing. We like implementing it. We like that it has a single agent and we can use it as AV. It seems to make things easy. It seems to be a more productive tool for us, but until we have an incident, I would not be able to say for sure. As of now, it looks like it has the capability.

Its interoperability with third-party solutions, such as Kubernetes, seems top-notch. We have integrated it with a couple of our solutions here, such as Kubernetes and containers, and we have not had any incidents or any problems to follow up or dig deep into. So far, the ability to look at our containers and to see into those clusters is something that puts Singularity above all others. With CrowdStrike or Trend Micro, we were not able to do that. We were not able to have the same visibility. SentinelOne Singularity made that easier for us.

Singularity Cloud Workload Security supports our ability to innovate from a standpoint where we know that our application teams and developers will be protected. When new applications are created, we will have some sense of security and some sense of safeguard for our teams. We did not have the visibility and the tools to protect us in the manner we would like, but with Singularity Cloud Workload Security, it looks like we can just put it on our endpoints and tell the teams to go and do as they wish because we know at least on this end, they will be protected.

What is most valuable?

From our tests and the things that we have done, we find Singularity Cloud Workload Security’s real-time threat detection and response capabilities attractive. We like the platform and its response time. We also like that its console is user-friendly as well as modern and sleek. Those are the things that are attractive to us.

We like the automated remediation feature. It is not something that we are going to use for automated remediation, but we do like the fact that it is there and can be utilized.

What needs improvement?

If I had to pick a complaint, it would be the way the hosts are listed in the tool. You have different columns separated by endpoint name, Cloud Account, and Cloud Instances ID. I wish there was something where we could change the endpoint name and not use just the IP address. We would like to have custom names or our own names for the instances. If I had a complaint, that would be it, but so far, it meets all the needs that we have.

For how long have I used the solution?

We have been using it for two or three months. We went through a test trial, and we are finalizing the official purchase request to purchase it and start using it fully.

What do I think about the stability of the solution?

We have not experienced any issues so far.

How are customer service and support?

We have not interacted with their support. We have only contacted our customer manager and our onboarding specialist. We have not had to submit any tickets.

Which solution did I use previously and why did I switch?

We have not used any other similar solution previously.

How was the initial setup?

It is a cloud deployment. I was involved in its initial setup. Its deployment was straightforward. There were a couple of questions that we had. Some of the documentation was not written in the best way. There were some hurdles when moving to the tool and understanding it, but for the most part, it was straightforward. We got all the instructions on how to deploy or install it. We were presented with a customer service rep who was an onboarding specialist. This customer service rep specialized in deployment for us, so everything was a simple setup.

What about the implementation team?

We mainly did it ourselves, but we also had an integrator consultant from SentinelOne who was on the site. They answered all of our questions for anything that came up. For anything we needed, they were there to help us. We had three individuals full-time, and then we had a contractor.

In terms of maintenance, there is nothing required from the SentinelOne side. Once we onboard a lot of our hosts, we just need to organize it in a way that is easy for us, but from the SentinelOne or Singularity folks, nothing is required.

What's my experience with pricing, setup cost, and licensing?

The pricing is fair. It is not inexpensive, and it is also not expensive. When managing a large organization, it is going to be costly, but it meets the business needs. In terms of what is out there on the market, it is fair and comparable to what I have seen, so I do not have any complaints about the cost.

Which other solutions did I evaluate?

We did evaluate other options. We tried Trend Micro Vision One. We also looked at CrowdStrike.

We went for Singularity Cloud Workload Security because it was built and made for the cloud. That was a big thing. The second big thing was that they utilize all of these different features with one agent.

The CrowdStrike solution is not built for the cloud. They have a cloud add-on, so it did not translate for us. The Trend Micro solution is somewhat built for the cloud. It is more of an on-prem tool that is moved to the cloud, but we have to utilize at least two agents to get all of the coverage, meaning AV and endpoint detection. With Singularity Cloud Workload Security, it is all covered in one agent. There is no need to put multiple agents on our host and go through that with our customers. It also allows us to place that agent using AWS Systems Manager, so the implementation in the cloud and launching of the agent is intuitive and easy. It was a no-brainer once we started looking at the tools in terms of how to implement them and what we would like in our organization. Singularity Cloud Workload Security took the top place.

What other advice do I have?

It has a single agent to cover all aspects. You can save money and costs with data ingestion by using the Security DataLake from Singularity. There is also the ease of use of its console. There is also the ease of deployment by it being cloud-based. If you are looking for a tool that is perfect for cloud solutions and protects your cloud host, Singularity Cloud Workload Security would be at the top of my list.

To someone who does not think that they need a Singularity Cloud Workload Protection Platform (CWPP) because they have a continuous security monitoring (CSM) solution in place, I would recommend looking again at Singularity because there is one agent and the ease of transitioning and deploying into the cloud. Another big thing about Singularity is the holding of the data. We utilize Splunk. However, with Singularity, we do not need to ingest all the data because we can also utilize their data lake. The query or the information that we can look up at Splunk can also be looked up in Singularity, so there is no need to take all that data from Singularity and ingest it into our Splunk and increase our license. We can utilize our license and capabilities. We can just use the data lake that comes with Singularity and utilize logs in that manner. In the end, it is saving us costs when it comes to our SIEM tool ingestion, so I would recommend looking at these top aspects. It is easy in the cloud. It helps save data on your SIEM tool. It saves the ingestion costs. There is also a single agent.

I would rate Singularity Cloud Workload Security a nine out of ten.

A great management console, and visibility, but needs more bandwidth

  • September 07, 2023
  • Review provided by PeerSpot

What is our primary use case?

When we receive a ticket about a SentinelOne detection on a specific host, we will first go to the SentinelOne console and look up the endpoint and the case. If there are any threats related to the host, we will then review the activities that have taken place within a specific time frame. We can look at the processes that have run, and how they have propagated from one process to another. We can also look at the timeline of events, from the top down, to see what happened when each process was run. This will help us to determine if any malicious activity has taken place.

We use the cloud-based management console to install SentinelOne on each employee's or host's device. SentinelOne can be installed through the cloud.

How has it helped my organization?

Singularity Cloud Workload Security provides us with better security detection and more visibility. It is another resource that we can use to detect vulnerabilities in our company's systems. For example, it can help us detect new file processes that we are not familiar with, which could be used by attackers to exploit our systems. Singularity Cloud Workload Security can also help us diagnose and analyze data to determine whether it is malicious or not. Singularity Cloud Workload Security is like another pair of eyes that can help us protect our systems from cyberattacks.

The real-time detection and response capabilities of Singularity Cloud Workload Security are very helpful. When we receive alerts in real-time, we can take action immediately. Within Vigilance, they look at things for us in real-time and let us know if they detect something malicious. This allows us to investigate the incident and see what is happening. If it is a zero-day attack, we can take action immediately to try to mitigate the damage. Having real-time alerts helps us take action more quickly than waiting for a few days for something to happen.

The automated remediation feature works from a database. We upload anything that we have detected before or anything that we can filter into this database. For example, we would upload the known IP addresses of analysts who do penetration testing for us within the company. If one of these IP addresses comes in and is malicious to the company, the solution will detect it. Singularity Cloud Workload Security will check the IP address and automatically classify it as benign. This saves us time because we don't have to manually review the IP address or contact our colleagues. This frees up our time so that we can focus on other things, such as investigating more malicious threats. IP addresses are just one type of data that can be filtered. File processes can also be filtered. Any type of automated filtering helps us reduce the time it takes to investigate a ticket so that we can focus on the most malicious threats.

The historical data record provided by SentinelOne after an attack is helpful in identifying what we can do to protect ourselves from future attacks. We can use this data to understand the cause of the attack and put in place preventive measures, such as educating employees about security best practices. SentinelOne allows us to access up to three or four months of historical data without a request. For data that goes back six months to one year, we need to submit a request. This data can be specific to a particular host, if necessary.

Singularity Cloud Workload Security is a great product. It is very robust and versatile. There are many things we can do with it, even things I have explored in the past two years. We can use different types of queries to narrow down our searches. It is a very powerful tool that has been very helpful to our SOC in analyzing specific incidents.

The solution has decreased our mean time to detect through the automated response process and visuals that give us time to focus on other important things. It definitely gives us the actual time to look at other things instead of focusing on one ticket that may take us 30 minutes to an hour to resolve. This could definitely decrease the coverage time.

The solution has decreased our mean time to remediate. We have many detection systems in our organization, and it takes a lot of manpower to focus on all of them. Integrating SentinelOne into our organization has given us more time to focus on other things, rather than having to look at minor incidents, such as low-severity incidents. SentinelOne detects and remediates these incidents for us, so we don't have to worry about them. This has been a great help, and we no longer need to dedicate as much manpower to these incidents.

The solution helps to free up our SOC staff time to work on other projects and tasks. Thousands of false positive tickets no longer have to be looked at by our SOC team, saving them a lot of time.

The solution has helped our organization become more productive by allowing us to focus on more severe issues instead of wasting time on minor ones.

What is most valuable?

The management console is the most valuable feature. It offers a variety of options for us to view. If a threat is detected, there is a specific area where we can view the different incidents that have occurred. This is the threat that is associated with that host.

We can also have deep visibility into the activities within the host within a specific time frame. This is very useful, especially when we can view the process tree. This allows us to see how one process propagates to another process, and so on. We can then look back to the beginning of the process to see where it came from. How was it downloaded? Which URL did it come from? Was it internal or external? This information has been very helpful when we are diagnosing a specific incident.

The File Fence feature is also useful. When we view a file within Singularity Cloud Workload Security, we can put it into our sandbox to see what type of file it is and whether it is malicious or not. There is also the scan feature, which is very helpful. When we scan a host remotely, it can return to us with information about the detections that were made on that host. This can help us to identify and alert others about any potential threats.

What needs improvement?

Whenever I view the processes and the process aspect, it takes a long time to load. I think this is because the dashboard or management console is slow, especially during downtime or when updates are being applied. Even when I search for a specific query, it takes a while to load. I believe that increasing the bandwidth for query processing would help.

For how long have I used the solution?

I have been using SentinelOne Singularity Cloud for three years.

What do I think about the stability of the solution?

I think the stability is decent. However, if they fixed the bandwidth issue, it would be a top contender. Sometimes, when I need to look at the process timeline, it is very difficult to load and takes a long time. We don't always have the time to wait for it to load. I think the stability is okay, but it could be improved.

We used Carbon Black. Carbon Black's stability is pretty good. Its downtime is not as high as SentinelOne's. Carbon Black is a little bit easier to use than SentinelOne. Its user interface is a little bit easier than SentinelOne's. In terms of stability, I think SentinelOne is just a little bit behind Carbon Black. Not by much, but just a little bit.

What do I think about the scalability of the solution?

The scalability is fine.

How are customer service and support?

The technical support is very responsive, and courteous, and provides great customer service. If we need something right away, they will definitely put us on the priority list. We have a special chat channel or a specific team dedicated to our company. We can also email them, and they will usually respond quickly.

How would you rate customer service and support?

Positive

Which solution did I use previously and why did I switch?

I previously used Carbon Black and Tanium for a short time. When I first started at my current organization, they were using both Carbon Black and SentinelOne. However, SentinelOne provides the same level of security as Carbon Black at a lower cost, so the organization stopped using Carbon Black.

If I were to compare SentinelOne to Carbon Black, I would say that they have the same functionality, but Carbon Black has a faster response time. If SentinelOne could improve its bandwidth in this area, it would be a more competitive product.

What other advice do I have?

I would rate Singularity Cloud Workload Security a seven out of ten. I noticed some lagging, especially when loading a specific storyline. I also experienced some lag when I had too many windows open.

Based on the company's size and infrastructure, SentinelOne offers different tiers of service for small, medium, and large businesses. For a really small company that doesn't generate a lot of logs, a robust system like SentinelOne may not be necessary. However, for a medium-sized company, SentinelOne can be a valuable asset. It has helped us to reduce our response time, gain more visibility into our security posture, and receive alerts if any devices are lost or stolen. SentinelOne is also more versatile than other solutions in terms of the resources it uses to detect malicious activity. I would recommend that any company considering SentinelOne do their research and talk to other users to see if it is the right fit for their needs.

Singularity Cloud Workload Security is a cloud-based solution that does not require much maintenance. The only maintenance required is to keep the filtering list up to date. This can be done with the help of the SentinelOne team.

The interoperability of the solution is fine. I don't have any issue with it.

In my line of work, we innovate by detecting and analyzing specific incidents. Singularity Cloud Workload Security definitely helps us out a lot in terms of detection, creating new queries, and creating new filters.

I suggest they research the solution and test it out. I believe SentinelOne offers a trial version, so they can try it before they buy it. See how they like it. We love it and don't think we can live without it. It gives us so much free time to focus on other things. It's like a home security system. If we miss something, they contact us. If the doors unlock, they let us know. If the battery is dying, they let us know. It has helped us out a lot. It gave us the visibility we didn't have before and continues to give us the visibility we need. I don't know what we would do without it.

Supports older legacy operating systems, offers great visibility, and automated remediation options

  • September 06, 2023
  • Review provided by PeerSpot

What is our primary use case?

We have deployed SentinelOne Singularity Cloud Workload Security to our servers and clients.

How has it helped my organization?

Singularity's real-time detection and response capabilities so far have been great.

I like the way we have options in how we set up the automated remediation. We can set it up to automatically take action, or we can set it up to just flag or let us know that there is something that needs to be investigated. It has been really good in that regard. There are many, many options in how we can configure it, and I have liked that quite a lot.

Compared to my previous solution, I am more comfortable with SentinelOne Singularity Cloud Workload Security. I was always concerned that the previous solution was not catching everything. There were a lot of false positives, and there were several cases where it did not catch everything. Even when it did catch something, the logging and forensic details were very limited. SentinelOne Singularity Cloud Workload Security is the opposite of that. It gives us deep visibility into what is going on and what has happened. The mediation is great, and the logging is much more detailed. It has been a huge improvement over what I was using before. Singularity Cloud Workload Security has given me peace of mind.

To date, all threats detected were false positives or test threats. No actual threats have been encountered, but test threats were detected quickly.

What is most valuable?

One thing I particularly like about Singularity Cloud Workload Security is that it supports older legacy operating systems that we have been unable to eliminate. This is a valuable feature that other clients do not offer.

The visibility is the best part of the solution. To see exactly what's going on in all the clients, and processes that are running, I have got a few false positives, but those are relatively easy to investigate and remedy, and flag them as false positives.

What needs improvement?

We use Singularity Cloud Workload Security with Citrix and a non-persistent VDI. It took us a while to configure the software to work well in this type of environment, as the support documents were not always clear. We eventually got it sorted out with the help of support, and I give credit to SentinelOne for that.

For how long have I used the solution?

I have been using SentinelOne Singularity Cloud Workload Security for ten months.

What do I think about the stability of the solution?

I have not experienced any stability issues, client issues, or rogue agents causing problems. I have also not had any crashes. Overall, it has been great.

What do I think about the scalability of the solution?

We have a relatively small environment, with fewer than a hundred endpoints deployed. So, scalability is easy for us. I don't know how it would work with thousands or even tens of thousands of clients, but I haven't had any issues so far.

How are customer service and support?

The technical support is helpful.

How would you rate customer service and support?

Positive

Which solution did I use previously and why did I switch?

Our previous solution, Trend Micro Worry-Free, in comparison, is quite poor. It did not give me very good visibility into what was happening with my clients, on the network, or what processes were running. If something happened, I was very limited in my ability to figure out what happened. In other words, the forensic capabilities of my previous solution were lacking.

There is no way to compare the turnaround time of obtaining telemetry data between the two solutions because Trend Micro Worry-Free did not provide any telemetry data. We would receive an email about a possible virus, but when we logged into the system to view the logs, there would be nothing there. Or, it would tell us that there was a virus, but it would not tell us which client was infected until we logged into the console. It was lacking in so many areas.

How was the initial setup?

During the deployment, we conducted a test case. One of SentinelOne's sales engineers assisted us in setting up the software, configuring everything, and setting up notifications. They walked us through the process of setting everything up to my liking and how they would recommend setting up the software. They were instrumental in helping us deploy the system, and all of their assistance was included in the price of the system. We did not have to pay any additional fees. I found their assistance to be very helpful.

Without SentinelOne's help, the initial setup would likely be very complex. There are many options for configuring the product, which can be both beneficial and detrimental. On the one hand, it is beneficial if we are familiar with the software and know how to best configure it. This flexibility is a great advantage. On the other hand, if we are coming from a different product and do not know SentinelOne's software, it would be very helpful to have their assistance in walking us through the setup process and recommending a configuration.

I was the only person from our organization involved in the deployment.

What's my experience with pricing, setup cost, and licensing?

I wasn't sure what to expect from the pricing, but I was pleasantly surprised to find that it was a little less than I thought.

Which other solutions did I evaluate?

I also evaluated Carbon Black. I read a lot of reviews, both official and user-generated, to learn what people were saying about the product. What really drew me to SentinelOne was its legacy software support. This was a key factor for me, and it helped me eliminate some of the other options.

What other advice do I have?

I would rate Singularity Cloud Workload Security eight out of ten.

The software itself is very good. Singularity Cloud Workload Security provides deep visibility and support. I have found the support team to be very responsive and helpful whenever I have engaged with them.

One of our requirements was that the solution was simple enough for me to maintain myself without spending a lot of time managing the software. There are software agent packages that become available, and I need to go in and approve them and push them out. There are occasional false positives, but overall, it's not a lot of work.

For straightforward clients on a PC or laptop, Singularity Cloud Workload Security works well. However, in edge-case scenarios like ours with Citrix and non-persistent VDI, we need to test it out to see if it works well enough in our environment. We had some initial problems getting it started, but we were able to resolve them. So, my advice is that if the scenario is straightforward, there should be no problems.

Helps free up SOC staff to work on other projects, detect threats and protect our assets

  • September 06, 2023
  • Review provided by PeerSpot

How has it helped my organization?

Singularity Cloud Workload Security gave us the visibility we needed and freed up time to do other tasks. It narrows down the false positives that we got with the previous solution.

What is most valuable?

We use Singularity Cloud Workload Security to detect threats and protect our assets. We look at the threats that come in and whether they're being blocked. We use Singularity Cloud Workload Security as an anti-malware threat management product.

Our previous product took a lot of man hours to manage. Once we got Singularity Cloud Workload Security, it freed up our time to work on other tasks.

What needs improvement?

We had a couple of issues with the solution's deployment. We had to deploy the agent, and sometimes there were issues. It feels like we're battling a version of the software when we have to deploy an agent over another agent. It would be really helpful if the solution improves its agent deployment process.

For how long have I used the solution?

I have been using Singularity Cloud Workload Security for over a year.

What do I think about the stability of the solution?

I haven't heard from our team about any stability issues with Singularity Cloud Workload Security. Singularity Cloud Workload Security is more stable than our previous solution.

What do I think about the scalability of the solution?

Singularity Cloud Workload Security handles anything we throw at it. The scalability is good.

How are customer service and support?

When we have an issue, an online engineer from their group helps us resolve it within an hour or two. I haven't heard anything negative about the solution's support from our team.

How would you rate customer service and support?

Positive

How was the initial setup?

I was involved in the selection and the proof of concept process. I wasn't on the call for the installation, but I overheard our two engineers involved in the solution's installation. The solution's deployment was pretty quick, and they installed it in one day.

What about the implementation team?

We implemented the solution with an in-house team.

What's my experience with pricing, setup cost, and licensing?

Singularity Cloud Workload Security's licensing and price were cheaper than the other solutions we looked at. One product was a little bit cheaper, but its functionality and the overall product weren't as good as Singularity Cloud Workload Security. One of the vendors' prices was almost double what we would get thus far. Talking to their engineer and salesperson put our minds at ease when we got it. We knew they would be there for support, and they have been really good.

What other advice do I have?

I'd ask users to take a good look at Singularity Cloud Workload Security because it brings a lot of value to the table. For its price, the solution does a good job compared to some other solutions.

Singularity Cloud Workload Security’s automated remediation works great.

The solution’s real-time detection and response capabilities work great for us. It frees up time, unlike our previous solution, where we had a lot of false positives.

It's granular, and you can take a deeper dive into something if you need to. You can analyze and get a verdict. It's easier to narrow it down and pinpoint it with more detail.

The solution helped reduce our organization’s mean time to detect. Singularity Cloud Workload Security is quicker than our previous solution. We are a small group of just five people, and we have to do instantaneous detection to stop things from coming in quickly. We like that part a lot.

The solution helped reduce our organization’s mean time to remediate. It lets us analyze an incident, report the status quicker, and escalate it quicker than our previous solution.

Singularity Cloud Workload Security helped free up SOC staff to work on other projects. It probably freed up 10 to 15 hours a week. Before, we spent a couple of hours a day sifting through events and trying to see if they were false positives. The solution freed up a lot of time.

We have seen an impact on our organization's productivity using Singularity Cloud Workload Security. With the freed-up time, we're able to do a lot of other work. We use other products and look at phishing emails. It frees up our time to study more than we did in the past.

I would have users look at their visibility across their environment. The solution's quick response to threats, ability to act on them, automated incident response, and forensic investigation capabilities are really good. The solution provides you with 24/7 threat monitoring detection.

We work eight hours a day when we have someone on call. It's nice to know someone else is also looking at our events. They're there to dive in with us when we need them to help increase our team. Even though they're not on our team, they're there to help us.

Overall, I rate Singularity Cloud Workload Security a nine out of ten.
