    Scenarios where this solution suits well - 1) Zero Trust Network - wherever client wants a perfect ZTN enabled network + Compliant with standards like NIST 2) Huge Data / VIDEO transfer with cloud/AWS solutions like CDN and CloudFront - Able to connect easily 3) Hybrid networks - connect with various security policies 4) Secure data transfer which has UDP needs for traffic like syslog/UDP VoIP ports need

    Pentana is great for monitoring PIs and risks. We find it less helpful for monitoring projects (with the Actions module); it isn't quite flexible enough for our needs, though the support team have been very helpful in adding custom fields for us.

    • Pentana is excellent for monitoring, recording and reporting on PIs. Very easy to use the PI module.
    • Pentana is excellent for monitoring risks at various levels (service, strategic etc.). Risks are displayed very clearly in a tree structure and the module is relatively easy to use.

    Cons
    Everfox
    • I wonder if we can think of integrating it with Firewall Rule Management solutions like Tufin, not sure if API supports or not.
    • Custom Reporting capabilities tailored for CISO/GISO level client folks
    • Automation /ease of custom scripting - assistance from Forcepoint support for the same

    • Pentana could improve the free Documents module that comes with Pentana Risk. At the moment documents have to be linked to an action in order to display query results (such as how many documents are due for review) - this can be confusing for users who don't understand why there is an action linked. There is also no easy way for users to see the documents that are assigned to them.
    • We would like to use the Actions module fully in order to monitor our corporate projects, but it a bit confusing for users and not very flexible when a project doesn't mirror Pentana's way of monitoring actions.

    Some modules are more user-friendly than others. It's sometimes not obvious where to click to update the fields (or even that field titles can be clicked on). We have written 'Howdys' to help users. There can also seem to be a lot of steps/clicks to updating risks and actions. The Reports module on Pentana classic is certainly not user-friendly, particularly the Report Layout and Charts modules - we were told these would be integrated into the web version but this hasn't happened yet.

    1) Good satisfactory overall support 2) Relatively straight forward installation 3) Data Security 4) Cloud support which is big plus / multi cloud as well. Most of the clients are also very intelligent since they refer Gartner and other reports for statistical data. They do their homework well in advance hence we have to make sure we know the product well

    We selected Pentana because our neighbouring authorities are users and had spoken highly of the product and given us demonstrations; some of our staff were also familiar with Pentana when it was called Covalent. It seemed to be the best product on the market for monitoring risks, PIs and projects.

    Return on Investment
    Everfox
    • Since we are from cyber security, we are engaged in a multi-year relationship with clients that are interested in deploying ForcePoint.
    • We have been strong pipeline in our current PoVs for European clients that are interested in this solution. They just want extended support to deploy it end-to-end
    • Less costly training mandates, good training material available on the net

    • Pentana Risk has allowed my team to focus on other areas of work whereas before we would be manually chasing for updates on PIs and risk. Pentana Risk does the chasing for us!
    • We are able to produce reports for audit purposes very easily, rather than sending spreadsheets which is what we used to do.
    • New managers can easily inherit risks, projects and PIs and see all of this on a custom portal, saving them time when they start.
