The biggest challenge with this product is it crosses lines. You need somebody who can support servers as well as somebody who supports the infrastructure. And that's usually two different jobs, two different job titles, two different departments. So if you have a lot of silos within your organization and you have groups that don't work particularly well together between the server team and the network team, you will have problems developing and working on this product. If your server team and your network team work well together, then you'll have a lot fewer problems, it'll work pretty well. But if your server team and your network team are like oil and water don't bother.

In its current version, it is basic. There are nice new features that should provide a good overall picture of the configuration and security of the account.

  • Difficult to attribute the vulnerabilities to the correct instance - cloud is too dynamic. Is supposed to be fixed in new version - we will see.

We looked at this over a year ago, the space was still young. Censys provided what we originally needed, but was soon outdone by Tenable with their initial release. I am sure that Censys improved as well, but it was easier to expand on our current Tenable license.
