Nightfall AI Reviews & Product Details

Implementation happened very quickly since our team was already involved in our evaluation. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Took a bit to get my meeting scheduled but once playing phone tag with sales we were off and running with the product and internal SE. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I recently had the opportunity to use Nightfall, and I must say, it has transformed our data protection strategies! Nightfall offers a comprehensive and seamless solution that not only identifies and classifies sensitive data but also actively prevents data leaks and breaches.

It is very user-friendly. The user-friendly interface made the setup process a breeze, and the configuration was straightforward, even for someone with limited technical expertise (me). The customer service team went above and beyond to help us in every aspect.

The accuracy of Nightfall's data discovery capabilities is AMAZING! It successfully detected sensitive information across various data sources. One standout feature of Nightfall is its real-time data loss prevention (DLP) capabilities. The system immediately flagged any attempts to share sensitive data, giving us peace of mind knowing that confidential information remains protected at all times.

One standout feature of Nightfall is its real-time data loss prevention (DLP) capabilities. The system immediately flagged any attempts to share sensitive data, giving us peace of mind knowing that confidential information remains protected at all times, but I will say that it does flag everything (which is a good thing) but it becomes redundant and repetitive (sometimes!)

I am in the healthcare industry and have very sensitive data that needs to be protected. Nightfall makes it easy to identify sensitive data and create notifications to send to employees to let them know there was a violation and how to handle the data correctly. Nightfall can also take action on that data and redact when appropriate. Nightfall has been a beneficial tool for our data security. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

There are a few issues with the UI, but our account manager is very helpful and any issue that I have is addressed with the product team in a timely manner. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Their accessibility is one of their more unique attributes; their team is connected with our Slack channel and has been highly responsive to emails and calls. While we don't need to speak with them daily, they're there if we need them, which is reassuring. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

They aren't as proactive in engaging us to use them to their fullest potential. I've found myself doing my own research and being very proactive with managing our account. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Setting up Nightfall was simple, fast, and straightforward. It didn't take very much to have it up and running and took little lift on our end; but does require making sure there is an administrator and service account for each platform you are connecting to are available.

It's easy to use and straightforward, integrates with Slack, so I am notified about new alerts and violations when there is data sitting around; but most importantly I am aware the data exists and where to find it.

We found interest in its ability to detect API Keys but have not delved further into it yet.

So far, we have it connected to a few systems and it's been working well. I haven't been using the system long enough to tell you our ROI.

From a security standpoint, the team has been very responsive and forthcoming with policies, and information so I can conduct a security review. Their SOC 2 was made available upon singing a NDA. I reviewed the documentaiton and still have more questions so they are taking the additional questions and having those answered. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Nightfall is still a relatively newer product, so the team is still building out additional integration and features.

We currently have it integrated with a few systems and look forward to seeing more. We hope to see an integration with Asana. I wonder if it would be able to check Gmail? I don't have insight on the pricing model so I cannot comment on that.

One feature I pointed out to the team that I think is unnecessary is having to press on the "Expand all" function on each violation; all the information should just be available and appear without having to click.

Another downside is not being able to assign a user to a violation and not being able to write a note for a whole violation.

Another piece of feedback is being able to take action on a violation in Slack, so a user doesn't have to go into the dashboard.

It's a downside there is another dashboard to check, but perhaps the developer tools can be used to bring in centralized logs. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I really like how the violations are managed. Nightfall makes it easy to redact items that violate your company's policies around protecting PII, PCI, Secrets, and credentials. I use the tool daily so the dashboard, and violations help support my information security needs. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I wish that when items in Confluence show up as a violation, that Nightfall provided a link to that Confluence page. Same as when a link to a Jira ticket that has been detected as a violation, there's a link to the Jira ticket from the violation profile. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Nightfall has been an excellent addition to our company's tech stack. The installation and onboarding process were a breeze, and we were impressed with how quickly we were up and running. Nightfall integrates seamlessly with all of our native cloud tools, including AWS, GCP, and Slack, which has made our work more efficient and secure.

What has really stood out to me is the software's effectiveness. I accidentally triggered an alert myself and immediately saw how the software works to prevent data loss. It's not just box-ticking compliance - it really works! Our team has limited resources, but we were able to get up and running with only one person's time, which is impressive.

Overall, I highly recommend Nightfall to any business looking for effortless compliance without the need for a lot of effort. The software is easy to use, effective, and integrates with all of our cloud tools. For sure we made the right call going with nightfall Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

As the market leader, we found Nightfall a little on the spendy side compared to some other solutions, however, when you consider the effort we've saved having such a seamless tool, the ROI is clearly higher than competitors. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

It uses some impressive machine learning algorithms to scan and classify sensitive data across a range of cloud services and on-premises systems, but it also offers some really cool integrations.

For instance, Nightfall can be easily integrated with Slack, which means you can receive real-time notifications about potential security risks and take action right away. And if you're a Google Workspace user, Nightfall integrates seamlessly with that as well, so you can easily scan and classify sensitive data across your entire organization. The integration with Slack has been critical for our use case, as it's allowed us to catch a number of pieces of sensitive data and manage them before they even reach a user.

But it's not just the integrations that make Nightfall stand out. The user-friendly interface and customizable workflows mean you can tailor the platform to fit your specific needs. And with real-time alerts and automatic remediation actions, you can trust that your sensitive data is well-protected from breaches. In short, it's a very strong platform overall.

Nightfall is primarily designed to protect specific types of data, such as financial transactions OR PHI/PII, and may not be suitable for other use cases. This means that you may need to use additional privacy tools or workarounds to protect other types of sensitive information. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Overall the product works and is useful. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Nothing, I enjoy the product and the areas it provides to me. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Nightfall is easy to implement and is very friendly to cloud-based companies. We leverage them for 4 different products (Slack, Jira, Confuence, and Zendesk (in early beta currently)) and have found their service intuitive, fairly accurate, and I love their easy response to alerts in Slack. They also export logging to a SIEM very easily and their team is engaged, quick to respond, and the product is developing rapidly. When they say they're building something, they mean it's coming soon and it's really appreciated. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

My problems with Nightfall aren't really with the company itself, but more the limitations of technology. You can't "auto-redact" in a PDF, image, or attachment, which means the auto-redact rule will simply not work for those types of findings. I've given them the feedback of following different alerts for different finding types, which they've responded well too -- so there's yet another plus for them!
