Gained full visibility and streamlined threat detection through behavior-based insights and AI integration

Initially, we got to have a lot of false positives when we onboarded, but nowadays it's quite smooth. We have fine-tuned our security policies and allowed different levels of policies to get rid of those false positives. Currently, we are getting a fairly good amount of incidents that are not false positives or benign, but actionable items. The process is streamlined. In the initial days, the operations used to get involved in a lot of benign and other activities, but now the process is streamlined. We are leveraging the auto-detection and remediation plans. The operations teams are now more involved in other business roles as well, not just looking into the logs and fetching out what's happening there. They have fixed a lot of things. Initially, they didn't have IAC code drift detection, cloud posture management, or security posture management, but they have those now. They purchased different vendors and did a merger with that. They have now Prisma Cloud that gets integrated and now they are working with Cortex Cloud. Everything that was negative has now been addressed, and the product altogether looks to be in a very better and mature shape now. Currently, it's more or less detecting the workloads with AI-based best practices. Since most organizations are consuming AI agents and other things, we are looking forward to seeing what other feature enhancements Palo Alto can support in that.

Quotes from Members

We asked business professionals to review the solutions they use. Here are some excerpts of what they said:

Pros

"In one single alert, we are getting the network telemetry, endpoint telemetry, email security telemetry, and proxy telemetry all in one single ticket, making it very easy."

"Traps is quite a stable product. Once it was properly deployed and configured, you have nothing to be worried about."

"Since they've done their most recent update, the ease to isolate endpoints is valuable. If we find one where there is a virus on it, we can easily isolate it. We don't even have to contact the user. We don't have to manually take them off the network. We can easily isolate them."

"It has a higher cost than other solutions, like CrowdStrike or Microsoft’s EDR tools, but it reduces the cost of our operations because it’s a new generation antivirus tool."

"After installing this solution, it identified, blocked, and provided the complete attack chain, which was very helpful."

"The live terminal is probably the best thing ever. It gives you the access to get straight onto any machine."

"The product's most valuable features are massive user and feature intelligence exploit detection."

"The solution is a new generation XDR that has a lot of artificial intelligence modules."

More Cortex XDR by Palo Alto Networks pros

"The solution offers a ransomware vaccine which has been very beneficial to our organization."

"The solution protects us so that we have regular security from attacks."

"I like the simplicity of this solution and the fact that it saves us time."

"The endpoint protection is the solution's most valuable feature."

"I like the simplicity of this solution and the fact that it saves us time. The deployment was really straightforward and useful and I am impressed by the anti-virus endpoint detection and response offered by this solution."

"The solution has exchange protection. It has a content control, device control, a firewall, and anti-malware as well. They are all quite valuable features for us."

"Seqrite Endpoint Security is a good solution."

"The solution is centrally managed, easy to configure, and easy to use."

"The most valuable feature is its endpoint protection, particularly the antivirus component. It has been very effective in protecting our clients, and since its installation, we haven't encountered any issues with compromised endpoints or virus impacts."

"The solution effectively detects malicious files and blocks sign-ins."

"Endpoint Security's best features are inventory, asset management, and quick scanning."

"The overall performance of the server and the dashboard are the most interesting aspects of the solution."

Cons

"The main issue I could point out is the offline agents and the way that it is missing."

"They are charging for Network Traffic Analyzer (NTA) services, so if the per GB data could be provided at a certain level free of cost or at the same cost which the customer is taking for the entire bundle, that would be better."

"I would like to see some additional features related to email protection included."

"A potential area of improvement for Cortex XDR by Palo Alto Networks is the cost."

"The installation should be easier and the Palo Alto pre-sales and sales teams should have more information on the product because they don't know what they are selling."

"Cortex XDR could be improved with more GUI features."

"Enhancing UI simplicity and playbook flexibility are areas that could benefit from more low-code automation options for smoother integrations."

"It automatically detects security issues. It should be able to protect our network devices while operating autonomously."

More Cortex XDR by Palo Alto Networks cons

"The database needs improvement. It needs to be updated quite a bit."

"Customer service needs a lot of improvement. They never replied or responded to our queries over the three years we've used it."

"There are blurred lines between anti-virus and endpoint detection so I would say it can be confusing when you are considering buying this program. I would like to see that being explained better to the customer."

"There needs to be better integration with the environment. Especially, for the active directory and also for keeping up with the changes from Microsoft. We use a lot of Microsoft OS. I have noted that sometimes they lag behind Microsoft updates. For example, when with Windows 10. I had some issues with deploying to Windows 10 because the solution was behind in updating their own services to match the Microsoft release."

"The cost of the solution can be improved."

"The support offered by the tool is an area of concern where improvements are required."

"The solution could integrate with other products to provide a comprehensive protection strategy."

"We would like the solution to have integration with other security solutions so that we can have a single base for monitoring all the security incidents and concerns."

"A handbook of known issues and quick fixes should be given so that troubleshooting and frustration are less."

"The interface is slow."

"The pricing could be a bit lower."

"I would like to see Seqrite add a remote profile so we can implement different policies for users connecting to the in-office LAN and those accessing the office network from home or a public internet connection."

Pricing and Cost Advice

"Cortex XDR’s pricing is very reasonable."

"The solution is expensive. It's pricing is on a yearly-basis."

"The price of the solution is high for the license and in general."

"I don't like that they have different types of licenses."

"The pricing is a little bit on the expensive side."

"The return on investment is from the user side because we have seen the performance of it increase the delivery time of the product if we are using too many web-based and on-premise applications. In indirect ways, we saw the return of investment in terms of performance and user satisfaction increase."

"I don't recall what the cost was, but it wasn't really that expensive."

"Though I don't think that this is a cheaply priced product, I feel that it is an affordable solution."

"We get the tool for around 1200 rupees for a three-year subscription. I rate its pricing a nine out of ten."
