What problems is FortiCNAPP solving and how is that benefiting you? Lacework helps us solve visibility and compliance issues in our cloud and container environments.

I like the multi cloud feature of Lacework including its high reporting standards. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com. What do you dislike about FortiCNAPP? 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. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com. What problems is FortiCNAPP solving and how is that benefiting you?

Mainly like the different set of standards it provides like SOC2, PCIDSS, HIPAA etc. where we can generate reports directly against each compliance framework which is very helpful during an audit. I really like the findings it provides using agents with our kubernetes platform where lacework can give us more granular findings on the container behavior in the platform where we struggled to find what was happening within the kubernetes infrastructure. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com. What do you dislike about FortiCNAPP? The dashboard is difficult to navigate, making it challenging to quickly find specific information or insights. Also creating custom dashboards for our requirement is not straightforward. Automation with the AWS control tower is not working time to time where they have not considered large scale setups where the architecture does not scale for hundreds of accounts migration. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com. What problems is FortiCNAPP solving and how is that benefiting you? We are very concerned about our compliance and governance in our platform and lacework provide us the tools to stay compliant and find any deviations Also since we are currently migrating to kubernetes platform it provide necessary information on any issues inside the platform including the images it runs Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Mid-Market (51-1000 emp.) 11/17/2023 "Quick way to catch vulnerabilities" 2.5/5 What do you like best about FortiCNAPP? Our team installed Lacework on AWS ECS instances and it showed a lot of potential vulnerabilities. There were some packages that we would have never considered as malicious ones and Lacework showed us those. Also, it is pretty to launch on services like EC2. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com. What do you dislike about FortiCNAPP? Not so easy to install Lacework on ECS machines. Our Devops team did some extra mile job to allow us to run Lacework on our ECS tasks. However, that run of the sidecar resulted in longer start time of the ECS and bigger resource consumption. Also the pricing is too aggresive in my oppinion. The value it gives is great, but the cost we are paying for it - is way too much. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com. What problems is FortiCNAPP solving and how is that benefiting you? Showing vulnerable packages. Showing vulnerable containers. Showing us what is covered and not covered yet.

Lacework is a good tool for smaller teams that can't afford a SIEM or lack the experience to set up a SIEM for Cloud environments. It is far less noisy than legacy tools. If you're just starting your security journey, Lacework may be a good fit to get you started. Our AE and our Solutions engineer are awesome and I feel like they care about us getting the most value out of Lacework. They have some of the best CLI tools and API's that I've ever worked with. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com. What do you dislike about FortiCNAPP? There is very little that's unique about Lacework. It does not ingest cloud logs like VPC FLow Logs, Load Balancer logs, S3 Access Logs, etc. They don't ingest AWS security events like Guard Duty and instead rely on their IP to alert on. Lacework has missed indicators of compromise while undergoing penetration tests. We've found some issues and limitations with larger time ranges, monitoring network traffic, and anomaly detection for AWS metrics. Support has been poor lately. I've found that when I ask a question and it's not a positive answer they often answer a different question. Windows support is still developing. They don't have alerts for failed logins on Windows workloads and these must be configured by the customer. As your security matures over time, you'll need to reset the machine-learning models because it's been trained to ignore poor security practices. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com. What problems is FortiCNAPP solving and how is that benefiting you? Lacework helped us solve the problem of not having an SIEM and how to gain visibility into behaviors in our cloud environments with minimal work on a very small team.
