knowing where all our PII data is and help to drive the clean up process.
A DSPM solution that will meet all your needs
What do you like best about the product?
It's highly scalable and will meet most, if not all, of your requirements. They are continually updating it with new features and the account team is friendly and always available when needed. The solution's UI is straightforward to use and supports a large number of integrations.
What do you dislike about the product?
You should already have policies and an idea of what you need to operationalize the solution. There are no templates to help you get started.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Our primary problem was to automatically identify and classify data in our critical data stores and Securiti solved that use case.
Better than the most
What do you like best about the product?
Throughout my career I've worked with different data privacy and protection planforms. Securiti is by one of the most customisable platforms. I've been using it every single day as part of my job and although it takes time to get used to, once you do it's easy.
What do you dislike about the product?
Although there are notifications on the platform when new features are deployed, it's easy to miss them, especially if the first 3 notifications are about modules that we do not have like consent or data subject rights. We do receive an email informing of the new deployment, but it's easy to miss due to the same reason, some deployments don't apply to us
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
before Securiti the company used multiple tools to review a request, from MS forms, to Excel to Team Channels. With Securiti, we now only use one (Securiti), which also helped improving our cycle times.
It has revolutionised our privacy risk assessment process.
What do you like best about the product?
It's flexibility - allowing the creation of templates and assessments that fit your business.
Ease of use and the constant functionality improvements being made.
The Self-Serve Portal allows you to create a clear call to action for the whole business to use. We have fully integrated into our BAU processes and it is used every day by the Privacy Team and our Business Owners.
The support we have had from the wider Securiti team has been phenomenal.

What do you dislike about the product?
I would love to have a Securiti community.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Prior to implementing Securiti we had fragmented, inefficient processes for assessing privacy risk over multiple tech solutions. Cycle times to approval were not meeting business needs.
Since integration we have seen an 80% drop in cycle times to approval. We have been able to implement a clear privacy risk position using underlying template scoring which means we have been consistent in our approach.
The Self-Serve Portal creates a clear call to action that the business has fully embraced, which combined with an easier process flow and fast approval times means we have very happy business owners.

Consent management framework facilitates robust privacy and open banking compliance
What is our primary use case?
What is most valuable?
The consent management framework is notable for its ability to manage consent across multiple platforms, which is significant for privacy and open banking. The data lineage visualization is powerful for tracking data paths and interactions. The tool offers third-party risk management, business continuity compliance, and aligns with local regulations, which is beneficial for operational resilience.
What needs improvement?
While the software is functionally robust and intuitive, there is a challenging learning curve. Although it touches on operational resilience, there is potential to expand its capabilities in this area, supporting frameworks like DORA in Europe and CPS 230 in Australia.
For how long have I used the solution?
I have been working with Securiti for just over a year, maybe a little longer.
How are customer service and support?
The customer service and support from Securiti have been noted for their helpfulness and responsiveness. The team in Asia-Pacific has been particularly supportive and generous with partners, providing comprehensive assistance and material.
How was the initial setup?
The initial setup was a collaborative effort. From memory, it was relatively straightforward, though there were a few glitches.
Which other solutions did I evaluate?
I have been looking at ServiceNow for comparison, focusing on IT services and operational resilience, but my expertise in ServiceNow is limited.
What other advice do I have?
The software requires an understanding of the regulatory environment and is not a silver bullet solution. It's essential to know about local privacy laws and organizational security policies while using the software. Overall, I would rate Securiti a nine out of ten.
Compliance tools aid in managing legal requirements but fraud prevention needs enhancement
What is our primary use case?
I have experience in the module of cookies. It provides us with tools and control of compliance for providers. I work with the product primarily in the banking sector or central banking.
What is most valuable?
Depending on the point of view, if I am in a commercial role, I always emphasize compliance with the law, for example, in Panama 81. In Chile, we have a new law regarding data protection. From a technical standpoint, the Discovery process is very detailed. For example, you have details like the color of the eyes, religious data, and credit card information.
What needs improvement?
Fraud prevention could be improved. If a criminal accesses my system and obtains my information, they might commit fraud. Compliance with the law and internal processes also need improvement.
For how long have I used the solution?
I have had experience with Securiti for three years.
How are customer service and support?
The technical support from Securiti involves a local 'level one' support which is quite basic. I need to ensure that the infrastructure and communication network are in place. If not, I can escalate issues to Securiti.
Which solution did I use previously and why did I switch?
Securiti is my first contact with data protection software.
How was the initial setup?
The initial setup is easy. However, during the first part when I need to configure all the points for the scan, it can be somewhat complex. After that, the use is very simple and faster.
What about the implementation team?
I have a team and partners involved in the deployment. Some team members focus on ongoing tasks like exploiting the information and using the tools effectively. My main focus today is on the sales of the product.
What's my experience with pricing, setup cost, and licensing?
The pricing varies depending on the year. Two years ago, it was much cheaper, but now it is more expensive.
Which other solutions did I evaluate?
I have experience with similar products, for example, Discovery Data and Security AI, which is a direct competitor.
What other advice do I have?
I would recommend Securiti because it provides many details regarding the information after scanning. The solutions are modular, so if a customer's budget is low, we can start with just one module. However, the initial configuration is not very easy for the customer and requires help from the provider. I rate the overall solution a seven out of ten.
Maintaining privacy and ensuring compliance with international regulations is crucial
What is our primary use case?
I manage Securiti for other people. Security is quite important today. My customers use it for data privacy and compliance. Nowadays, it is imperative to be compliant with the regulations. It depends on the country and the kind of data.
What is most valuable?
Maintaining the privacy of customers and ensuring compliance with international regulations are critical features of Securiti. Nowadays, we are in an international environment, so the rules are not the same in the United States as in Europe. It is important to have an agreement with the customer to process the data.
What needs improvement?
I would say to enhance everything because security is becoming more critical. From a human user point of view, it is essential to be aware of the regulation. It is important to optimize security measures and automate as much as possible. Employees must also be aware of the regulations.
For how long have I used the solution?
I have been working with Securiti for many years, more than ten.
What was my experience with deployment of the solution?
The deployment process is progressive and does not finish. You start with a base, but then you build building blocks. I did not deploy the software, but I was in charge of sharing the importance of security with stakeholders.
What do I think about the stability of the solution?
I would rate the stability of Securiti as seven or eight, as we cannot make mistakes. Everything is evolvable with tools, so I would like to optimize the stability level.
What do I think about the scalability of the solution?
The scalability of Securiti is not high because we have to customize the solution. It is very complicated to scale, so it needs improvement. I would rate it as three.
How are customer service and support?
Technical support for Securiti is good. I would rate it nine out of ten.
How was the initial setup?
The initial setup was quite difficult. I work with data and am aware of all the policies. I have implemented many policies, like allowing people access to data and having some users with privilege, but it is more difficult.
What about the implementation team?
I was involved in the organizational aspects related to deployment, such as discussing the importance of security matters with stakeholders.
Which other solutions did I evaluate?
Before choosing this specific tool, I did not evaluate other options. It was a federated decision to do it in-house.
What other advice do I have?
Securiti has a rating of eight or nine, but we are not approaching all the challenges we will face in the future.
Automation streamlines data privacy tasks with user-friendly features
What is our primary use case?
Our customers mainly use Securiti for consent management and a bit of CCPA compliance. We had some integration with Salesforce and were attempting to make it a single source for the consent module.
What is most valuable?
The drag-and-drop features make Securiti easy to use, even for individuals who are not tech-savvy. The ongoing improvements to the product are beneficial, and the automation capabilities are useful for automating data privacy tasks. These features help by allowing tasks to be performed without requiring a highly technical person.
What needs improvement?
Technical support needs enhancement. It would be helpful to have better documentation and more accessible support, especially when raising support tickets. There should be a call-oriented support system to address client-specific issues.
For how long have I used the solution?
I worked with Securiti for more than a year but have not been working with it for the past six months.
What was my experience with deployment of the solution?
I followed the usual deployment algorithm, which includes configuration, testing, and production migration. It took three months to deploy one module.
What do I think about the stability of the solution?
Securiti is stable, but there were occasional issues like delayed transaction updates. The product should operate in real time, but there were rare delays due to server issues. Overall, its stability compares well to other products.
What do I think about the scalability of the solution?
Securiti's scalability is average. It is best when the number of steps is minimal and requirements are clear. The tools allow for quick building and testing, reducing overall deployment time.
How are customer service and support?
Securiti's customer support is mixed. While the product is evolving, focusing more on the support side would make things easier for users.
Which solution did I use previously and why did I switch?
I was mainly working on Securiti AI and OneTrust solutions, comparing the two gave me insights into their differences.
How was the initial setup?
The initial setup was rated seven out of ten. The documentation needs to be more detailed, and the evolving product leads to a learning curve. Once familiar, it becomes easier, but improving documentation would help.
Which other solutions did I evaluate?
I have also worked with OneTrust's data governance solution.
What other advice do I have?
My overall rating for Securiti is eight. Automating more support systems such as calls with the product team would enhance customer satisfaction. The support should be tailored to various client requirements.
Automated data discovery impresses with robust AI capabilities and competitive pricing
What is our primary use case?
I have been involved with Securiti for almost two years.
What is most valuable?
Their data discovery is a fantastic product. It is AI-enabled for automatic tagging and classifiers. Once a proper data discovery is completed, it suggests tags to automated classifiers. I genuinely appreciate this feature, and they are competitive in pricing compared to other vendors.
Automated tagging helps in identifying sensitive information. I also find their dashboarding to be very good, including their cross-border transfer maps for data movement. I consider access control and monitoring to be particularly useful, with a module in their NFI domain called access controls and monitoring, which is informative and easier to use.
We also employ it for automated data discovery by connecting to source systems to identify and classify personal identifying information (PIIA) across various assets. Code dot ai handles unstructured data sources, identifying sensitive information in OneDrive and ensuring it is secured from a compliance standpoint.
What needs improvement?
I would like their workflows and assessment automation to be more advanced compared to their competitors, especially under the pro core privacy module. I find that Securiti AI is not as advanced as OneTrust when using OneTrust as a benchmark.
Despite them having connectors and ongoing product improvements, there are challenges with data lineage and updating relationships modules that don't match OneTrust's capabilities. Their data discovery is strong, and their core privacy models are improving, posing a challenge to OneTrust. However, I believe the assessment automation and workflow automation processes require further development.
For how long have I used the solution?
I have been involved with Securiti for almost two years.
What do I think about the stability of the solution?
The solution is relatively stable. These were read-only accesses, so there was no impact on the production environment.
What do I think about the scalability of the solution?
We haven't seen any scalability issues.
How are customer service and support?
They have a very strong product support team. Even though we face some challenges, they are always there to help us. I find the training modules on their website to be really user-friendly and helpful.
How was the initial setup?
They have a very strong product support team. Even though we face some challenges, they are always there to help us. The training modules on their website are really user-friendly and helpful.
What was our ROI?
To scan 50 terabytes of data, I find their module is almost half the price of their competitors when it comes to data discovery.
Which other solutions did I evaluate?
It's a good product. Everyone should at least try Securiti once before making a conscious decision as every organization, environment, and program comes with different objectives. A particular tool choice depends on a small POC, but I definitely recommend Securiti.
What other advice do I have?
I rate Securiti an eight out of ten. I find it very nice.
Improved data governance with comprehensive process mapping
What is our primary use case?
I haven't been using the solution much. I work for a service company, and we resell some products. Security is one of the products that we resell. I have some certification in security, and I know what it does and its functionalities. However, we are a new reseller of security.
What is most valuable?
The process mapping is a good tool. We have a nice view of their data.
What needs improvement?
With the formation and education, specifically the security education, they could update the educational video more often. The most difficult part is the security deployment. It's hard to estimate the cost. They should help with the cost estimation. When you deploy security, you need to deploy the infrastructure. That's the weak point, the difficult point.

What do I think about the stability of the solution?
It's pretty good in that regard. It's a good tool. Our deployments were inside the client environment. We manage the environment well, and the clients manage it, so it's not crashing. I haven't seen any instability compared to PowerView, for instance.
What do I think about the scalability of the solution?
It's very scalable. I would rate it ten out of ten for scalability.
How are customer service and support?
It's not very fast, and it's difficult to get an answer. That said, we've got a dedicated engineer, and when we get someone, we get the answer.
Which solution did I use previously and why did I switch?
I have used Purview, however it is not really similar. I wouldn't recommend it to our customers. It's difficult to manage the cost. We looked at Didomi and Purview, however, the most efficient is security.
How was the initial setup?
It usually takes one month if we want to explore all the functionalities.
What about the implementation team?
We do it all by ourselves. We've got a Microsoft-certified professional who helps us. After that, we do everything by ourselves. It's about deploying the security notes in Azure environments.
What's my experience with pricing, setup cost, and licensing?
The most difficult part is security deployment. It's hard to estimate the cost. They should help with the cost estimation. When you deploy security, you need to deploy the infrastructure. That's the weak point, the difficult point.
What other advice do I have?
I would put nine out of ten.
It's a very complete tool. It's easy to make data governance with it, as it relates to data security. However, the documentation can be difficult to read.
