Check out Fugue.io as an alternative ask they catch drift in your configs, and if need be, can automate restoration to baseline among other things

Demo 9 is more expensive but easier to implement with API based integration. However if the workload requirement is simple, secure devOps then default cloud security monitoring provided by AWS/Azure is good enough. For more stringent PCI or other compliance it is perhaps better to leverage automated compliance solutions like demo 9 or evident.

I was considering evident, but now am hesitant given the acquisition. Echoing what a few others have commented, I think the best approach is to wait this out for a while to see what happens.

You can contact any of these companies and ask for access to the product to evaluate their capabilities. I evaluated , Netscape, Symantec, McAfee, and a few more about a year ago.

Not specific to these applications, but anytime a company is acquired, they are off my short list for at least 1-2 years. Too often the talent that made the product attractive either leaves or is sidelined. Once I see the new feature set after 1-2 years post integration, the company can get back on the potential vendor list.

We evaluated both and preferred Dome9. Unclear what Dome9's future is given PA owns both Dome9 and Redlock. Redlock is a cool product.
