What do you like best about F5 Distributed Cloud App Infrastructure Protection (AIP)?

The application provides seamless integration between systems on campus and systems off campus, as well as integrating with the campus-wide firewall and authenthication. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about F5 Distributed Cloud App Infrastructure Protection (AIP)?

When a session ends, you can't just simply log back in. If you do, it'll almost certainly kick you back out. You have to remember to close a window, then reconnect. Annoying. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is F5 Distributed Cloud App Infrastructure Protection (AIP) solving and how is that benefiting you?

The largest problem is wholesale integration with systems, and then broad marketing to users in a large organization on actually using the product. CS tickets increased quite a bit for normal every day users. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Threat Stack effectively provides an intrusion detection platform that effectively filters out false positives & allows us to focus on critical alerts.

Hence with Threat Stack, we can quickly identify anomalous behaviors in our cloud infrastructure. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

(Original )Information
What do you like best about F5 Distributed Cloud App Infrastructure Protection (AIP)?

All of our production applications are hosted with AWS and Threatstack is a cloud native platform designed from the ground up to monitor threats in cloud environments. This includes not only your compute instances, but also the cloud management platform itself. It was fairly easy to deploy and since it is a SaaS we don't have to manage it. With their Oversight service, they act as our SecOps team, monitoring our environment, analyzing events, and escalating to our organization when necessary. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about F5 Distributed Cloud App Infrastructure Protection (AIP)?

1. I wish they had better reporting capabilities in the tool itself.

2. I would like to see better integration for Windows workloads.

3. For compliance purposes, it would be nice if there was an option to store all events for 1 year in the tool itself. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is F5 Distributed Cloud App Infrastructure Protection (AIP) solving and how is that benefiting you?

It provides us with 24x7x365 monitoring of activity within our cloud environments. The Threatstack SOC analyzes all alerts and only escalates to us when there is a real issue. It also helps tremendously with our PCI requirements. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you like best about F5 Distributed Cloud App Infrastructure Protection (AIP)?

Threat Stack's team makes me feel valued and is aways looking out for our needs. Threat Stack is more than just a Software as a Service; Service comes first and their team is always available to answer questions, provide advice and consultation on a broad range of security questions. Our account manager checks in with my team on a monthly basis to ensure that we're getting the best possible value from the service, see what Threat Stack can be doing better, and help me feel secure in the constantly changing world of DevSecOps. He has gone above and beyond to help us with external audits, requests from customers, ecurity policy writing and planning FedRAMP inititives. Threat Stack is open to suggestions and tracks every feature request I have on these calls; many have already been implemented, leading to increased ease of use and functionality for my team. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about F5 Distributed Cloud App Infrastructure Protection (AIP)?

I often wish some of my RFEs were handled in a more timely manner, but I recognize that between the Covid-19 pandemic and Threat Stack's recent product release of ThreatML, their engineering team has had higher priorities. I am very optomictic about the new ThreatMl product, but in it's initial version I feel there's a few shortcomings which prevent it from being immedietly useful to my team. These are minor issues, in general Threat Stack is a great partner for our needs and these areas for improvement do not detract from my experience as a satisfied customer. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is F5 Distributed Cloud App Infrastructure Protection (AIP) solving and how is that benefiting you?

Threat Stack allows us to ensure that activity on our Enterprise servers is authorized, that software patches are up to date, and that server are compliant with our Security policies. Threat Stack enables us to be compliant with the heavy regulatory requirements within our field and allows us to undergo customer audits with cofidence. Threat Stack has allowed us to harden our servers, ensuring that all management connections are authorized and that no rogue agents have compromised our engineer's workstations or credentials.

What do you like best about F5 Distributed Cloud App Infrastructure Protection (AIP)?

I like you can apply a set of rules already predefined for SOC2 Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about F5 Distributed Cloud App Infrastructure Protection (AIP)?

After the tool is reporting a vulnerability, if I fix it just right after, I need to wait until the other day to see the fix reflected on the report, so I do not like that I can not trigger a scan on demand.

I'll like to have a Jira integration, so when the tool is reporting a vulnerability can also filla ticket to track it, reporting is good but for goind beyond the line it will be good to report the vulnerability and also create a ticket like an action item for the team Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Recommendations to others considering F5 Distributed Cloud App Infrastructure Protection (AIP):

The product is great, the setup is super straight forward, and the set of rules you can apply will make your life easy; we were using it for classic ec2 instances, but after moving to k8s we lose some features, the tracking for ssh is not so good as we had in classic ec2 implementation Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you like best about F5 Distributed Cloud App Infrastructure Protection (AIP)?

There are a lot of things to like about the entire platform. After getting familiar with the dashboard, it was very insightful to take a glance and have a brief overview of your cloud. The Threat Stack Oversight service was beneficial for us as our team wasn't very big. We got time back to work on other important initiatives and don't have to worry about low level alerts. They helped with detecting and triaging high-severity issues and investigate alerts on our behalf. Overall I would definitely recommend this to other people using Threat Stack. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about F5 Distributed Cloud App Infrastructure Protection (AIP)?

The learning curve was a bit steep. We had a few training sessions with one of their engineers that helped us tuned alerts and reduce noise. While the dashboard is good for quick glances, digging deeper requires a bit more effort. I find myself having to switch between the AWS console, ThreatStack, and other tools to get a better understanding of what is happening. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is F5 Distributed Cloud App Infrastructure Protection (AIP) solving and how is that benefiting you?

We needed a way to audit out AWS environments. Threat Stack helped us help do security monitoring and compliance. The oversight service also helped us find security issues that we had in our environment that we probably wouldn't have found out about otherwise. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you like best about F5 Distributed Cloud App Infrastructure Protection (AIP)?

We are running a security-mindful business with a small engineering team. Threat Stack has been an excellent addition to our layers of protection. We can all sleep better knowing that automated alerts are watching out for us. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about F5 Distributed Cloud App Infrastructure Protection (AIP)?

The product comes with a vast number of alert options out of the box. It's a bit overwhelming at first. But after spending some time configuring things (with great support from Threat Stack!), we are now comfortable that only actionable alerts remain. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is F5 Distributed Cloud App Infrastructure Protection (AIP) solving and how is that benefiting you?

We are using Threat Stack to monitor our servers for intrusions and suspicious modifications. That's one less thing to worry about with a small engineering team that can focus on delivering customer-focused features instead. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you like best about F5 Distributed Cloud App Infrastructure Protection (AIP)?

A clear and concise dashboard showing alerts related to servers. Being able to see exactly what's going on at a glance is very important for a daily run through potential security issues, and that's exactly what you get with ThreatStack. The system is still very deep, and you are able to drill down easily into detail on issues or potential issues. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about F5 Distributed Cloud App Infrastructure Protection (AIP)?

It's not simple to remove / snooze not applicable alerts for servers that (for example) had no external access but had out of date packages. You can set this up with rulesets, but then you are hiding issues. Having X high alerts sitting there constantly got me used to seeing red, which wasn't good. This is 100% a "me" thing, and not a reflection on the product. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is F5 Distributed Cloud App Infrastructure Protection (AIP) solving and how is that benefiting you?

ThreatStack for us was solving the challenge of knowing what was going on in a relatively small (~50 servers / resources) AWS setup. Knowing what servers were vulnerable, had mis-configuation without having to log into each one was a *huge* time saver.

Additionally being able to be in compliance with AWS best practices as a less experienced AWS user gave us a solid set of rules to follow in the future, as well as knowing what our current status was using the Config Audit. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
