Lacework Overview

What is Lacework?

Lacework offers the original and leading data-driven cloud-native application protection platform (CNAPP). Lacework is trusted by nearly 1,000 global innovators to secure the cloud from build to run. Lacework empowers customers to prioritize risks, find known and unknown threats faster, achieve continuous cloud compliance, and develop secure code without slowing down, all from one unified platform. Since our founding in 2017, Lacework has been refining a single cloud-native platform to ingest and comprehend as much data as possible to provide the best security possible — by both agent-based or agentless means. Our unified platform then uses this data to accomplish common cloud use cases: posture management, workload protection, vulnerability management, compliance, container security, and more. Customers depend on Lacework to drive revenue, bring products to market faster and safer, and consolidate point security solutions into a single platform. Our platform, on average, replaces 2 to 5 point tools. Customers average a 100:1 reduction in alert noise thanks to our patented anomaly detection technology. And Lacework users have experienced 80% faster investigations with our context-rich alerts.

Product Description

Lacework offers the data-driven security platform for the cloud, and is the leading cloud-native application protection platform (CNAPP) solution. The Polygraph Data Platform is purpose-built with a single detection engine, user interface, and API framework. With the Platform, your team only needs to learn one system for all of your cloud and workload protections, leading to tool consolidation, greater organizational efficiencies, and cost savings. Only Lacework can collect, analyze, and accurately correlate data — without requiring manually written rules — across your organizations' AWS, Azure, Google Cloud, and Kubernetes environments, and narrow it down to the handful of security events that matter. By taking a data-driven approach to security, the more data you put in, the smarter the Platform gets. This automated intelligence drives better efficacy and a higher return on your investment. Security and DevOps teams around the world trust Lacework to secure cloud-native applications across the full lifecycle from code to cloud.

How do you position yourself against your competitors?

Lacework sees cloud security as a data problem. And Lacework has designed our platform to ingest more data than any other CNAPP. By taking your own data and analyzing it with proprietary machine learning algorithms, we can accomplish common cloud use cases in new and novel ways. All these use cases — risk management, workload protection, compliance, and more — are featured in a single, integrated platform that’s been cloud-native from the beginning.

What do you like best about Lacework?

The setup was very easy for teams to navigate. There were a variety of up to date templates depending on your orchestration. Very easy to deploy the agent regardless of your setup.

The network diagrams (polygraphs) are really helpful when responding to an alert or just doing Threat modeling, Its nice to be able to very quickly visualize communications between your services.

Integrating into the container registry was really easy and provides us Vuln visibility prior to deployments. The mapping of containers in the registry to containers at runtime is very intuitive, helps you prioritize which items to look at first. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Lacework?

They have not released any meaninful features in the last 12 months and are really falling behind everyone else in this space. Every call we seem to have with them, our prior counterparts have been fired or left so you need to restart the conversation. Getting support has gone from OK to a nightmare.

The vulnerability management at runtime only updates once per day and a vuln must be cleared for at-least 24 hours before it will no longer show in the platform. This makes closing out issues after a code change or dependency update a more drawn out process. Would be nice if it could be done on demand.

Lacework has nice documentation on how to remediate findings in AWS, however they only provide details on how to do it in the AWS console, it would be helpful if they could also provide terraform samples, as that could greatly increase the speed of remediation. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is Lacework solving and how is that benefiting you?

Vulnerability Management - Host and Containers

AWS Cloud Compliance

Threat Hunting

The lacework setup allows us to easily run a Vulnerability Management program on our AWS images, Instances, and our Container fleet both at run and build-time.

The Automatic network diagrams allow us to look at all network connections between our systems and compare them to our baselines. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you like best about Lacework?

I like implementing Lacework as it's very easy and the continuous development means you stay ahead of the curve. It can also help you gain complete visibility of your workloads in almost all security tasks that will be assigned to you. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Lacework?

I think it would be great to be able to easily control what permissions the agent has on the endpoints. And to get the most value, you need to be able to write queries instead of human-readable questions. And in cases columns are unnecessarily truncated. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is Lacework solving and how is that benefiting you?

The data analytics used in the platform allows for a single plane of glass at the endpoints. Furthermore, the response to the final points is excellent. With this tool we have the possibility of otaining a large amount of information from Windows endpoints and we also reduced costs. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you like best about Lacework?

I like the multi cloud feature of Lacework including its high reporting standards. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Lacework?

If I am a business owner, I wouldn't only think of cloud security, and then there are many other respects to look into for proper security posture management or vulnerability management. So spending on such a new tool which is yet to make a mark would be a tough choice. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Currently it helps in compliance reporting/integrations wherever required. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you like best about Lacework?

Its functions have been essential to detec anomalies, but do not cause fatigue in the control panel or tools. Additionally, I love that it gives us a single dashboard to view all of our workloads, and the daily alerts help our incident response team prioritize and address urgent issues. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Lacework?

Starting to use this platform was one of the best decisions our organization has made. We were looking for an easy-to-use solution that covered all our assets in the cloud. Lacework has worked perfectly. I have nothing negative to say here about this tool. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is Lacework solving and how is that benefiting you?

We use Lacework primarily for user and entity behavior analysis. Provides protection guarantee against the latest vulnerabilities and different types of threats. Additionally, they our company significantly improve its security posture in the cloud environment. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you like best about Lacework?

I love that the team actively listens to user feedback and releases new features and improvements frequently. The platform is exceptionally easy to use, making it easy to set up and integrates for teams of all size. And I love that it offers buil-in protection for cloud infrastructure, workloads, data, APIs, containers, and access management. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Lacework?

I would like it to be able to integrate with a great variety of applications. Also, it would be nice if they could include timely security monitoring. Plus there is room to improve the board. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is Lacework solving and how is that benefiting you?

Lacework makes cloud security management easy with all-in one platform. It also offers a three-sided view of our cloud environment: code scanning, resources monitoring and hacker view. Advanced reporting also makes it a great option for team meetings. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you like best about Lacework?

Lacework narrows down the flood of information about our tech estate (in the cloud) to just the information that I need to know. When you're running DevOps teams with a large surface area of technology, this is critical.

The proactive monitoring has identified enough anomalous activity that I have comfort that if we ever suffer a real breach, Lacework will let me know about it. It's also generally easy to get exactly to the root cause.

The team have been excellent in supporting us - not just with onboarding, but with the continued embedment and getting as much value as possible out of the tool.

I recommend this product. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Lacework?

As relatively early adopters some of the features that allow us effectively segregate information were not there when we onboarded. Feels like it was initially targeted at security operations teams that sit across the whole organisation, rather than specific areas of the organisation.

However, the maturity is rapidly growing and the team have always been good at letting us know exactly what's on the roadmap and when it's coming. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is Lacework solving and how is that benefiting you?

Lacework has given us a single view of our tech posture across cloud accounts and on-premise.

The ability to identify attack paths through reading server vulnerabilities and network configurations is incredible, and helps us focus our security investment on the true threats.

The proactive monitoring lets me sleep well at night, knowing we'll be alerted in the event of any suspicious behaviour within our infrastructure.

Being able to quickly generate reports on our true security footing has allowed me to give me stakeholders an accurate and quantifiable view of where we're at from a security perspective, which is invaluable for any engineering leader. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you like best about Lacework?

How you can trace the issue all the way to the exectutable. it was 2 alerts that recived indicating that there were external attempts from servers to external IPs and upon checking the details of the alert and looking at the source and destination and traffic details; I was able to easily trace it to be legitimate attempts as one systems was trying to connect to O365 and the other to SpecOps. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Lacework?

None at the moment. I am happy with the product so far and the support is also great. I trust the company as well as they are doing great job developing the product even more Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you like best about Lacework?

I like the detailed information that is collected, the visibility that the tool gives us about our infrastructure is surprising. I like the amount of information that is collected in each scan. It gives us valuable information about our workloads. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Lacework?

I consider it a personal taste that the design of its infrastructure could be somewhat more striking. Queries may also take some time to understand. I don't like that you have very few options when it comes to customizing the reports. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is Lacework solving and how is that benefiting you?

The platform gives our security team the context they need, providing visibility and control over every aspect. The information obtained is excellent, complete coverage of the entire infrastructure. It has also helped us to be decisive in prioritizing our efforts. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
