Lacework vs. Wiz

Lacework is well suited for behavioral analysis. One thing to consider thought is in the early stages there will be quite a bit of noise generated by Lacework. There will be a higher volume alerts generated initially - until a good baseline is generated. Overall Lacework is good with alert handling - integration with Slack is good.

Wiz is great for companies with complex cloud environments. It's really good at finding security problems that are hard to see. It's also helpful for teams that don't have a lot of security experts.However, Wiz might not be the best choice for very simple cloud setups. If you have a small, basic cloud environment, you might not need all the advanced features that Wiz offers.

Wiz is a great tool that provides what we need to keep our Cloud infrastructure more secure.

Compared to Sysdig Falco (the free open-source IDS), Lacework helps security teams by providing actionable alerts and a user-friendly interface that gives you an overview of all workloads being monitored, and detailed insights into these workloads if needed. Falco requires you to build your own integration and interface around it, including a mechanism to whitelist certain alerts. This made it harder for the security team to focus their time on potential intrusions.

After the evaluation, Wiz performed the best due to the information gathered and the ability to share the data.

• Being a FinTech company, financial institutions who partner with us want to know that we are appropriately maintaining a Security, Risk and Compliance program that maintains a level of comfort for their vendor management. Lacework gives us the ability to monitor and maintain a level of security for our infrastructure that puts our partners at ease, reduces the revenue cycle for new partners and opens doors to the future.

• Wiz has saved us a lot of money and headaches. It finds problems we didn't even know we had, like weak passwords and open ports. This helps us fix things before hackers can find them. It's like having a team of security experts working 24/7.
• Plus, Wiz can fix some problems itself, saving us time and money. It's a great investment for our business.
• Wiz has made our cloud much safer. It helps us find and fix problems quickly, which means we can focus on our core business. It's like having an extra layer of protection for our data and systems.
