Senior Process Expert at A.P. Moller - Maersk
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.

Doesn't have daily updates, which is important for healthcare IT
I face challenges with the exclusion policy - it still scans folders we told it not to, causing issues. When we contact support, they tell us to update the latest agent, but we can't do that immediately due to medical device protocols and validation testing. I wish support would try to understand our issues better instead of giving this standard response. The machine learning feature they use often tells us to upgrade the agent or add things to the exclusion list, which isn't unacceptable. It's a very good and new technology as a tool and antivirus. But sometimes, it doesn't work properly with our medical devices and products, quarantining files it shouldn't even after we add them to exclusions. This is tricky for us.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"We use Cortex XDR by Palo Alto Networks for its ability to detect based on behavior rather than simple virus scan to prevent malicious activities."
"The anti-exploit is impenetrable. We chose Traps because it is the only product that we were not able to get anything past."
"It's a perfect solution. It integrates well into the environment."
"Palo Alto is one of the tech vendors that always provides top-of-the-line products."
"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."
"Implementing Cortex XDR by Palo Alto Networks has had a significant impact on my security analyst workload because it becomes much easier."
"Cortex XDR by Palo Alto Networks has given us better endpoint visibility and richer investigation context, allowing us to identify suspicious activity, understand the attack path, and contain potential threats much faster than before."
"The solution allows us to make investigations. Other XDR solutions also provide similar capabilities but for investigation, Cortex XDR is better."
"It is a good endpoint solution. It is very easy to manage and detect the threat immediately. It will take the necessary actions."
"CylancePROTECT is a fairly decent antivirus."
"Two or three years ago when the WannaCry virus struck, the people that were on Cylance were the ones that weren't affected."
"It handles situations that the other threat management tools wouldn't find. It has worked well covering the weaker sides of the other products that we're integrating."
"The most functional item that we use is the process to turn off the false flags that it causes."
"The solution is very quick at easily changing the levels of protection for each computer and the server."
"​Very easy to deploy. It can be done one by one or deployed by customizing an MSI file for GPO push.​"
"The ROI is immense, particularly in less dedicated labor hours, and much more in terms of security, particularly when new security flaws have recently appeared."
"The most valuable part of the solution is its ransomware backup feature."
"There are many features available in this solution, such as asset management."
"I like Seqrite's web protection features and external device control."
"The two valuable features are anti-ransomware and data loss protection."
"The solution is stable."
"Endpoint Security's best features are inventory, asset management, and quick scanning."
"Seqrite Endpoint Security is a good solution."
"We found the DLP to be innovative and useful."
 

Cons

"As an improvement, I would like to see enhanced connection speeds."
"It is an enterprise-level solution. Its price could be less expensive."
"Based on our experience so far, its implementation is quite complex."
"When it comes to core analysis, and security analysis, Cortex needs to provide more information."
"The solution should force customers to integrate with network traffic to see the full benefits of XDR."
"Although I would say this product is highly-rated, it could probably do more because nothing does everything that you want."
"Limited remote connection."
"Cortex XDR by Palo Alto Networks is a very good product, but financially, it is very expensive, so the company should look into that area."
"I'd like them to do software distribution too, but they said that that's architecturally not at the product line."
"While you are working, you are finding these things that were supposed to be waived have come back to being blocked. That's frustrating."
"The company that sells us the licenses sometimes doesn't know how to do certain things."
"The AI of CylancePROTECT has room for improvement. I'm on a trial license of SentinelOne, and its AI is much better than what's on CylancePROTECT."
"Additionally, their channel management has been lacking, with a notable disregard for small and medium-sized businesses, focusing primarily on large enterprises and very large MSPs."
"The product does not do a lot of reporting on what it is taking care of. Enhanced reporting would be a welcome improvement."
"Having worked with SentinelOne, Cylance is good, however, it probably needs to add a feature similar to SentinelOne's rollback functionality. With this feature, if you get infected, with a click, you can go back to the pre-infection state. If Cylance could add this functionality to their offering as well, that would be ideal."
"For example, the interface and the Cylance Optics need to be improved a fair bit."
"The solution's integration capabilities are moderate and could be improved."
"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."
"The product or service could be improved by incorporating SIEM integrations to enable the collection of logs."
"When it comes to the support provided by the product, I see that Seqrite is not as mature as the other products in the market."
"The stability is zero, Seqrite doesn't work, and the company doesn't accept the problems."
"We are using Apple devices, and the advanced device control service doesn't work for M1 chips devices, like Apple MacBooks."
"The solution needs to improve stability."
"The support offered by the tool is an area of concern where improvements are required."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"I feel it is fairly priced."
"It is "expensive" and flexible."
"The cost depends on your chosen license type, like Pro or other licenses."
"Cortex XDR by Palo Alto Networks is an expensive solution."
"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."
"This is an expensive solution."
"The solution is expensive. It's pricing is on a yearly-basis."
"The pricing is a little high. It is per user per year."
"The solution's pricing is around the same as most EDRs but slightly behind some of the major ones."
"The initial end-point cost may seem a little high (~$55/device/year) but when you look at the total peace of mind that the solution provides, with no reboots for updates, and negligible performance impact, it is well worth it."
"On a scale from one to ten, where one is cheap and ten is expensive, I rate the solution's pricing a seven out of ten."
"We pay our license on a yearly basis and have just renewed for two years."
"The license price for this solution could be better. It's on the expensive side."
"The solution provides me with competitive pricing."
"The licensing part of the product is too expensive compared to other solutions in the market."

"The solution's pricing is good for us, where it is neither cheap nor expensive."
"It is a cheaply priced product."
"There is no option to refund the money and unfortunately, we bought a three-year license, seeing that Quick Heal is a long-established player in the market."
"We pay approximately $1,500 for licenses for the solution."
"I give the cost of the solution a seven out of ten."
"The license isn't expensive."
"The pricing is reasonable."
"The solution has reasonable pricing. There is one pricing without any hidden charges. They have to pay once a year or three years."
