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.

Setup is smooth and management is seamless, while improvements in email filtering transparency enhance efficiency

For data correlation, we just haven't worked long enough with it to assess its impact on our overall threat response strategy. We prefer a system that simply informs us when there is a problem; we don't want to engage too much in threat hunting. Therefore, we're not looking to create a SOC from this, which is also why we moved from XDR to MDR. There are areas for improvement, including the difficulty in getting the right handles on the applied email filters. It's sometimes unclear why one email is treated as spam and another is not, even if they contain similar content. Making the process of how emails are treated a bit more transparent would be beneficial.

Vaibhav Mahendra Kolhe

Soc Analyst at Softcell Technologies Limited

Automation has reduced alerts and freed the soc team to focus on faster incident response

Regarding mean time to respond, the improvements I see with SentinelOne Singularity Complete are that genuine files also get alerts. We are getting false positives, but we are also getting genuine true positive alerts. The improvement will be deep visibility because as I am using Splunk as a SIEM, I compare deep visibility with Splunk, but deep visibility has limited access with only a 14-day policy to retain logs. The improvement will be in overall policy management. The third point will be the complexity of policies. If we want some endpoints to use only USB or if we need to block USB on some points, the policy management is very complex. The fourth point will be that Mac OS and Linux don't have the rollback policy; that policy is only for Windows. These four points are improvements if SentinelOne Singularity Complete can address them. Data privacy and security when utilizing Purple AI is crucial for SentinelOne Singularity Complete, and SentinelOne Singularity Complete lacks in data security. Data security is very important in this world. In my organization, if we deploy SentinelOne Singularity Complete and we have integrated all the firewalls, all devices, and AWS devices to SentinelOne Singularity Complete, logs will be forwarded to SentinelOne Singularity Complete through SentinelOne Singularity Complete. However, SentinelOne Singularity Complete doesn't have data security solutions such as Forcepoint DLP or 48 layer; SentinelOne Singularity Complete doesn't have that DLP solution. From the data security point of view, SentinelOne Singularity Complete is not good.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"I don't have to do much monitoring with it; I don't have to have anybody manually looking at this, it gives us reports, and it lets us know if something needs to be addressed, and we can easily address it."

"I recommend this solution to others because it is easy to manage, reliable, and overall good to use."

"One of the main benefits of the solution is its intelligence to correlate the events into an incident."

"Palo Alto Networks Traps improves our security posture and lowers risk by providing next-gen methods to combat against modern threats on all the major platforms."

"Cortex XDR by Palo Alto Networks has helped lighten the load of our security analysts because it was the major tool that we were using and the one we utilized most."

"I like the centralized console and the predictive analysis it does of malware. It is very stable and also scalable."

"The most valuable features are the fact that it was running in the background and it would intercept any weird stuff, and the fact that it would send things directly to the cloud for sandboxing. It's quite practical."

"The stability of this product is very good."

More Cortex XDR by Palo Alto Networks pros

"Scalability is pretty easy. It's easy to increase the capacity. You can just add on licenses to the existing license, and the duration of the license can be adjusted. For example, you've already bought a license for a year, and you want to add some more users. We can just add on licenses for the remaining period so that the entire organization can have the same expiry date. That makes renewal easier."

"I would rate GravityZone XDR more than nine out of ten."

"Since then, we are working with it, and so far, we have no problems; it's working smoothly with email security."

"I find that the auto-response capability is most valuable."

"It provides an in-depth analysis and gives recommendations, along with a historical search capability."

"The solution has an automatic patch management capability."

"I appreciate the overall utilization of AI to enhance security posture."

"The HyperDetect feature in GravityZone XDR is effective."

"It is a good endpoint solution. That's the reason we chose it. We looked at other solutions, such as CrowdStrike, and based on the cost and the services it delivers, it was the better choice."

"The product can scale."

"The tool deletes the problem-causing process and prevents issues."

"The most valuable feature is that it does what it says it will do. It fulfills its claims. It’s not really common for products to do that today."

"The Ranger feature is valuable."

"The ability to get queries by pressing the "tab" button is a plus for SentinelOne."

"We chose SentinelOne because of the protection it offers against ransomware, providing good security that gives peace of mind."

"SentinelOne supports both Linux and macOS."

More SentinelOne Singularity Endpoint pros

Cons

"Cortex XDR by Palo Alto Networks is a strong tool, but it is true that digesting information sometimes makes the tool go a little bit slower."

"As an improvement, I would like to see enhanced connection speeds."

"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."

"Currently, we are monitoring all USB drives and ports but we would like to improve our device control capabilities."

"I don't like that they have different types of licenses. For example, if users select a license, they think they will have all the platforms they need to improve their network or security. But after some time, Palo Alto Networks changed their licensing, and some of the features that, for example, were free at the beginning now have a cost. I think the integration can be improved. For example, a lot of tools are just integrated through APIs."

"It'll help if customization was easier."

"The dashboard could use some significant improvement, just making it more useful with more information. It has a limited amount of information right now. It is customizable, but I'd love to see a better out-of-box dashboard."

"The price could be a little lower."

More Cortex XDR by Palo Alto Networks cons

"It's not very mature, and additional costs are involved."

"There are areas for improvement, including the difficulty in getting the right handles on the applied email filters."

"The resource consumption is high for Bitdefender GravityZone XDR, nearly using one gigabyte of RAM, especially on Windows 10 and 11."

"Another area of improvement is CPU utilization. CPU utilization could be improved."

"The solution’s pricing could be improved."

"The product could be improved by offering a single panel for the management of all Bitdefender products. Additionally, there might be a need to simplify the interface in the future."

"We'd like SentinelOne to upgrade automatically. It doesn't automatically update the agent if some system has an older version of the SentinelOne. It has to be triggered from the console."

"I would like to improve the reports because they are not so customizable and we would like more info from them."

"Managing the false positives creates additional management overhead. The behavioral analysis engine might misinterpret real user behavior as malware. For example, a drafter was cleaning up a Revit folder and deleting 4,000 files. That looks like ransomware. The SentinelOne agent kicked his computer off the network."

"SentinelOne Singularity Complete could improve by having DNS filtering. Other competitor solutions have this feature."

"It's fine. It's correcting all the EFC files with a virus. All the achievements, maximum EFC files. Many EFC files will be flagged as a virus. Some virus databases need to be updated. The model is good at finding many EFC files. The trouble is it needs to be updated."

"In terms of improvement areas for SentinelOne Singularity Endpoint, I think there are a couple of features that are improving, particularly the dashboard such as creating a multi-function dashboard."

"The mobile agents need improvement, especially in their integration with the dashboard of the normal Windows Image-based agents."

"They are still largely an EDR product."

More SentinelOne Singularity Endpoint cons

Pricing and Cost Advice

"This is an expensive solution."

"The price was fine."

"Every customer has to pay for a license because it doesn't work with what you get from a managed services provider."

"The cost of Cortex XDR by Palo Alto Networks is $55 to $90 USD per endpoint per month."

"I did PoCs on products called Cylance and CrowdStrike. Although, I consider these products and they were also good, when it come to cost and budgetary factors, Traps has been proven to be better than the other two products. It is quite cost-effective and delivers all the entire solution which we require."

"Very costly product."

"The tool's price is moderate."

"I feel it is fairly priced."

More Cortex XDR by Palo Alto Networks pricing and cost advice

"On a scale from one to ten, where one is cheap and ten is expensive, I rate the solution's pricing a six out of ten."

"It's not the price of the software itself that makes it expensive. It's because you have to buy a VM; you have to buy additional hardware. All those things make it slightly costlier."

"The pricing model is simple."

"SentinelOne Singularity Complete's pricing is affordable."

"Our licensing fees are about $5 USD per endpoint, per month."

"The tool's price is reasonable."

"SentinelOne was half the price of CrowdStrike."

"The price is costly compared to what we were previously paying with Microsoft Defender and McAfee."

"The per-seat cost is low, but you have to commit to a certain number of licenses for a year."

"The pricing was very similar in terms of its competitors, but I believe SentinelOne's capability and willingness to attract new business allowed us to save some extra money."
