Comprehensive Multi-Cloud Security Platform Faces Usability and Initial Setup Challenges
It's a powerful platform that addresses the complexity of modern cloud security. It's a "Code-to-Cloud" solution, meaning it tries to embed security throughout the entire application lifecycle from developer code to the running production environment. - IT ASSOCIATE1B-10B USDManufacturingReview Source
Good solution but don't get too excited!
We had a lot of issues originally with network enforcement being enabled but it is stable now. There were (and still are) issues with certificate handling, especially for the SSL inspection feature which we had to implement a manual workaround, and it was really time consuming for our Security team. - IT SECURITY & RISK MANAGEMENT ASSOCIATE50M-1B USDIT ServicesReview Source
A great ally for cloud security management with a user-friendly interface and easy handling.
It's a product that's difficult to implement at first, but once you define it with the features you need, it becomes a very manageable product that saves you a lot of headaches compared to other more complex and less reliable products. - IS Engineering Manager1B-10B USDBankingReview Source
Centralized dashboard simplifies correlation, but SBAC controls feel limited
One of the best tool that i have worked in our organization. The Cortex Cloud will correlates all type of events, logs that as Posture, Identities, workloads, runtime, Vulnerability, DSPM, Shift left, etc. The best feature the tool having is the centralized dashboard where we can see all the integrated data at one place.
