   Thanks, those are great tips and I've just implemented some of those. Thanks again, this is super helpful!

   A wildcarded principle by itself doesn't mean too much. There are settings outside of the S3 bucket access policy that can mean "it doesn't matter what the bucket thinks". This here is something other products typically

   Thanks for the further details. Did you see the short video on the first page? It's a bit further down and might need to be pulled up. We have two other videos under "Resources/Videos" as well. I am currently working on

   Thanks! Based on my understanding of CloudGuard we differentiate again by the "automated investigation" we do. It's not just a "you have misconfigured this thing here" but then also "because of that misconfigur

   oh wow, never noticed. I will see if I can disable that. That's an odd one.

   I am indeed. I've seen those issues one too many times as a consultant, and I never got to really(!) fix them as I was only ever brought in as a band aid really, not strategically. Yeah, CNAPP is the new acronym for where we probably b

   I appreciate that comment, thanks. It does feel a bit like a catch22, that I am definitely trying to solve. ARGOS does have early paying customers, and of course they are heavily discounted (and they know). You mention not telling a price i

   I used to be a consultant building exactly those designs, limit the blast radius, have separate accounts etc. "In the earlier days" of ARGOS that's exactly why I didn't charge per Account, but different ways (tried # of

   Thanks, I'll definitely look into that.

    Thanks for that detailed response. ARGOS definitely feels more like an Enterprise / larger SMB product, unfortunately, I think this is mostly due to where people are really feeling "the need" for cloud security. I had many co

    That bot is gone now. Thanks for letting me know.

    I had to "save a bit" on the web designer, sorry. Focus was more on the product. The chat bot should have already been removed. I will do that asap.

    Thanks for your comment. As I mentioned to others, I followed what other companies are doing and what actual customers (not just Enterprises) asked me to do. If I just put a "contact us for pricing" button onto the website, would

    Again, fair comment. Frankly, I'm still figuring out what this would be worth to smaller organisations. ARGOS really scales by AWS Account / Azure Subscription / GCP Project right now and I'm currently charging "for

    by david_obrien 5y ago

    It's a fair comment, and I used to have prices on the website and then actual customers, while they were on their way to becoming customers, told us to take the prices offline. Their procurement teams really didn't like prices on

    Great question. First, I feel most of the integrations (aside from Slack) are really asked for by Enterprises. Smaller orgs don't really ask for those. Roadmap is absolutely around context, even more context. We want to get to the poi

    Thanks. Yeah, our website needs to be clearer on the differentiator. Part of this Show HN was to also see if people "get" what ARGOS does. Right now the path only takes network into account (no, we do not look at flow logs). Later

    Probably too much reliance on web designers. ;) I'll take that feedback and make some changes.

    I'm British, so I'm aware of the retailer. Thanks for the warning, we've been assured by many legal professionals that this should not be an issue. We tell everybody that we are not associated with them and that we are actual

    Thanks for that feedback. We have MSSPs as partners already and the pricing there is pretty much "custom". I haven't thought about "individual security consultants" yet. I assume they would rather prefer a "poi

    Fair call. I will definitely need to check that. It seems like Chrome and Edge don't show those warnings. I will install Firefox and check what's up. Thanks.

    Thanks. Appreciate the comment. Overall it's been in dev for the last 18 months with some paying, early customers across Australia and Europe for the last 12 months. It's a small team, really only 3 people (plus an intern). We wan

    Apologies, that should be fixed now. Bit more traffic than anticipated.

    Thanks. CSPM products usually are great at finding any misconfiguration (compliance violation) in a cloud environment and mapping it to a Compliance framework. This is important, compliance I mean, but I've seen numerous organizations
