Pros
Working at KryptoKloud enabled me to get my start in the Cyber Security field. It was a fantastic opportunity and I was able to learn a lot while working on the job. The team is fantastic, and I have met some amazing peers and was able to work alongside those with more knowledge than me that I could learn from. The office is nice and sets a decent environment for me and others to work together. The office provides refreshments such as good coffee, fruit and a sweet jar! I got to take part in some exciting team days out with my co-workers and friends while on the job. The SOC team is hardworking and friendly, the sales team are a great laugh, and the administrative team were very friendly and kind. While I worked at KryptoKloud I was very comfortable around my colleagues, and they were always willing to help. At KryptoKloud you will find a solid SOC team for you to work with and you will rarely have an issue with another employee from my experience. Finally, I was able to learn a certification for a commercial software platform that is very transferable.
Cons
No workplace is perfect and KryptoKloud has a long way to go to reach even close to perfection. I will bullet point my cons to better structure how I feel: - The EDR is not very good. It misses basic features, causes most technical complications and is very slow. - The EDR comes lazily bundled with many different solutions that do not mesh too well together and does not keep you logged in to the other portals, so you must constantly authenticate, when it even loads. - The process trees do not show the full scope of information required making remediation hard. - The Portal is riddled with bugs. - The EDR does not provide a proactive solution and gets in the way more than it helps. The operations: - The manning is volatile. With a high staff turnover, There is a constant shift in the rota and you probably won’t get notified it has changed. Additionally, anti-social shifts and staggered days off are common. - There are not many official processes in place. It can be hard to find contact info, incident responses, detection, and response process, etc if they even exist at all! Mostly, this information is not there or outdated. - The CEO has been known to make strange comments and act in certain ways which make others feel uncomfortable, both scenarios I have witnessed first-hand.
