Cisco Multicloud Defense vs. Tufin Orchestration Suite

For WAF functionality and delivery of websites, It's very well suited for traditional firewalling, if you're doing that already, it can be quite difficult to rearchitect everything around this product. So an example of that would be if, like us, you came from a datacenter style architecture within your cloud environment and you are trying to move to a more cloud-fronted architecture. Probably the best way to put it is that can be quite difficult, but once you've deployed, it gets easier operationally. So to kind of reverse engineer everything and then do everything again can be quite tedious in some ways. But that will be specific to people depending on where they're coming from with it.

Well suited scenarios - 1) Firewall Policy / Ruleset management 2) Where all the products are from Tufin like TOS ST, SC, SecureApp etc 3) Where customer focuses on ruleset compliance - USP violations, and other features Less suited - 1) Agnostic/distributed environment - Tough with integrate with 3rd party like CyberArk 2) FW recertification processes / exception process when complex process is included

• Segmentation
• Ease of use
• Reducing risk

• Firewall management
• Compliance reports
• Unused rules and optimization
• Policy Automation

Incentivized

• Logs which are tricky to apply properly in the cloud, due to limitations of how vendor builds its environment sometimes it was hard to guess what is going on in the cloud as this solution also pulls data from these logs sometimes it can be missing some more detailed information
• Initial data flow related to specific solutions which company can use can - mean its custom apps which can need lots of learning processes what is valid what not and how to properly allow this can of solution example is DLP

Incentivized

• Palo Alto Networks Integration
• Better/more user friendly api for integration with ticketing systems
• Web UI structure is not user-friendly

Incentivized

If it maintains its current direction it will be very disruptive in the cloud security space

Incentivized

It is a straightforward platform to use - no overcomplication or hidden menus - everything is cleanly presented

As of yet I havent logged a TAC case - It will be interesting to see how it is supported as a new product in the medium term

Cisco Multicloud Defense, Crowd Strike Falcon, and Arctic Wolf Cloud Posture Security Management System as a service SAAS platforms are very comparable platforms. Unfortunately for Croud Strike, they had a mishap recently that caused major downtime for many companies worldwide. I do not think that you would have to worry about this happening with Cisco Multicloud Defense.

Incentivized

1) Fairly okay overall but definitely needs improvement overall Vs the other products available in the market like Palo Alto XSOAR 2) Cost wise okay at the beginning but when client demands add-ons/ more features/customization tailored to their needs, Tufin Orchestration Suite recommends RFE / custom costs/development costs 3) USP feature is cool to use overall Vs FireMon 4) Tufin ProServ needs to buckle-up/Support compared to other competitors in the market

Incentivized

• Cisco Multicloud Defense is easy to deploy and manage

Incentivized

• I think if you correctly configure your SIEM, you don't need Tufin. You can correlate a lot of things for firewalls.
