I wasn't here at the time when the company compared different vulnerability management platforms so I'm not sure on the reasoning and difference between the 2. It could be that the team went through different choices and found Vulcan to be the best fit. It's hard for me to say …

My role is not in charge of selecting more services or products like Vulcan. I just use them as part of my daily responsibilities. Maybe other roles can give more feedback about this.
Chose Vulcan Cyber (discontinued)
Nucleus Security was missing some connectors and was more focused on risk prioritization than ticketing automation.

Seemplicity had a different billing method that may have ended up being more expensive. Also a younger app.
Chose Vulcan Cyber (discontinued)
Vulcan Cyber has a more mature platform catered for enterprise customers compared to Nucleus. The very close support and attention to detail of the Vulcan sales and technical team also helped in answering any possible question we had about the platform or take note of our …

The competitors were either more complex to implement or higher cost for similar capabilities.

Vulcan was easier to implement with our existing Security environment. The UX and UI were more intuitive and user-friendly. While SOAR is a super solid product, for our business Vulcan made more sense. It was more of a natural fit for a rapidly-expanding company in a …

I recommend it to all companies with scenarios that are looking for a SOC queue management tool, vulnerabilities, assets, indicators, visualization panels with alarms and real-time notifications, and personalized reports of all the functions present in the tool. It's easy to install and configure on a VM. The interface is user-friendly and fully customizable and can even create infinite mini-panels of platforms, incidents, alarms, and other functions. The price is great and it's an investment to improve security and visibility and incident handling.

We use Vulcan Cyber to help with the technical debt accrued over time with systems that were not maintained as well as they should be. To combat this, we use the campaign feature to keep a running tab on every system to ensure it is brought up to standards and maintained.

Cons
  • Training Services- Fortinet offers courses geared towards administration and designed and development of FortiSOAR , Which required multiples access , we need all training services with self pace basis , I think here Fortinet need to improve.
  • Licensing Model- Being as a new technology Licensing model should be crystal & Clear, be it Concurrent Users or The number of FortiSOAR nodes there should be no ambiguity .

  • Deduping of assets could be better.
  • The weighting of vulnerabilities is hard to describe to non technical executives.
  • The Business Groups and Tagging needs improvement. Or at least allow tags to be removed if not needed. Now they are static from the API feed.

Done prove of concept (POC) thoroughly , where we judged the solution on every aspect & We came to know FortiSOAR will work well in our environment as it is blended with features like Case managements , Product Flexibility * Scalable Architecture . These features were much required to optimum use of our SOC solution. Since we have all the Fortinet security stack in our environment it helped us a lot in selection (POC) and also commercially.

Vulcan was easier to implement with our existing Security environment. The UX and UI were more intuitive and user-friendly. While SOAR is a super solid product, for our business Vulcan made more sense. It was more of a natural fit for a rapidly-expanding company in a hyper-growth phase using Edge technology.

  • Allows much better prioritizing of which assets are most vulnerable
  • Allow a better understanding of what assets are actually under real threat vs. what is assumed to be vulnerable, but the real world fact is the system would be hard to reach internally, so it's not as vulnerable.
