Overall Satisfaction with Lacework

We used Lacework as a service that performed behavioral analysis of the AWS Infrastructure layer (Cloudtrail, AWS Config), the server host processes, and user activities within AWS and the server itself. We also used Lacework Container Security to deliver end-to-end visibility of Docker container images by providing vulnerability assessments and malware detection. Vulnerability scanning for production instances with centralized logging and event analysis is a ‘must-have’ for customers from any product in the Commercial/GxP state.
  • Easy to implement in our environments

  • Improve product support
  • Improve alert handling
  • ease of implementation
  • alert handling and integration with Slack
  • consistent way to setup across different AWS accounts
  • Has helped give us coverage on different usage patterns
  • Good with compliance - helped with credibility with auditors
  • At times (a negative), Lacework has impacted our product teams by causing product issues on our production infrastructure
  • F5 Distributed Cloud Application Infrastructure Protection (AIP)
Lacework was superior with implementation and alert handling.

Do you think Lacework delivers good value for the price?

Not sure

Are you happy with Lacework's feature set?

Yes

Did Lacework live up to sales and marketing promises?

I wasn't involved with the selection/purchase process

Did implementation of Lacework go as expected?

Yes

Would you buy Lacework again?

Yes

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.
