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.

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

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

"We can visualize and control the activities in the environment from anywhere."

"My advice for anybody who is considering Cortex XDR is that it is a complete solution, and has very good features."

"Palo Alto is one of the tech vendors that always provides top-of-the-line products."

"From the Palo Alto side, whatever they buy, they integrate that really well into their integration suite, and that makes a massive difference."

"Cortex XDR by Palo Alto Networks is easy to use and does not consume a lot of hardware resources."

"The user interface of the solution is sophisticated and straightforward."

"It has absolutely improved the way our organization functions, we are more secure, it is giving us more peace of mind, and it has found malicious activity happening on our endpoints that probably would not have been detected if we didn't have it."

More Cortex XDR by Palo Alto Networks pros

"The stability is perfect, and it is leaps and bounds beyond our previous solution by McAfee."

"We chose the solution because it doesn't have daily updates, which is important for us in healthcare IT, where network usage and connectivity to hospitals matter."

"The deployment of updates is easy."

"The initial endpoint cost may seem a little high (~$55/device/year), but when you look at the total peace of mind that the solution of Cylance endpoint protection provides, with no reboots for updates, and negligible performance impact, it is well worth it."

"You can manage all the threats and everything from a centralized dashboard."

"The non-daily requirement to update signatures is the most valuable feature. From a functional point of view, it is pretty spot on. For instance, we compared an algorithm from five years ago to today's algorithm, and it was 98% accurate. It has the ability to detect and mitigate. In the industrial environment that we work in, there's what we call OT versus IT. You are IT Central, but this is OT. Generally, we don't have the same level of skillset as IT individuals or IT professionals have. This particular product doesn't require you to be a computer scientist to be able to understand its proprietary algorithm and to be able to deploy, use, and work within it. It integrates well with a robust SIEM or SOAR solution, and it plays nice with others. We use other detection solutions like CyberX or site provision with Cisco, and it plays nice. That's one of the things we really liked about it."

"What I like best about CylancePROTECT is its accuracy, as it doesn't give many false positives."

"What's most valuable in CylancePROTECT is the optics feature. I also like its easy-to-use and user-friendly dashboard and monitoring system."

More BlackBerry Cylance Cybersecurity pros

"SentinelOne Singularity Complete has shown a return on investment with its ability to detect threats at approximately 99% efficiency."

"The most valuable features are asset tracking, patching, endpoint tagging, and policy updates."

"Of all the products on the market today, I can say that they are the ones that I trust the absolute most to protect my clients."

"SentinelOne Singularity Endpoint helps reduce the number of alerts, generates precise alerts with very few false positives if any, and has actually reduced the load on our SOC analysts so much that I support approximately 18,000 to 20,000 endpoints with only two EDR engineers."

"The best feature of SentinelOne Singularity Complete is that you don't need to configure a lot with it because it provides an unmatched layer of protection out of the box."

"I've seen a lot of improvements and simplifications, and Google SecOps has recently moved into Gartner's as the highest one for visionaries."

"Singularity Complete has helped me free up time for my staff, allowing them to focus on other projects or tasks; it has saved a lot of time, because normally, when you do checks in a standard console for another solution, SentinelOne Singularity Endpoint reduces review time by about 50–60% of the tasks, since it's such a robust tool and at the same time has such an easy-to-understand interface."

"The strength of SentinelOne is that it has an automated, active EDR. It does that first level of what a SOC analyst would do, automatically, using artificial intelligence, so we can focus on other things. Active EDR not only notifies you, but it actually fixes that first level. That is unheard of. Very few, if any, companies do that."

More SentinelOne Singularity Endpoint pros

Cons

"Technology evolves every day, so it would be nice if it gets more secure. It can also have more integration with other platforms."

"We had a problem with getting our older endpoints up to date, but their newest updates have been really good. I've been pleased with it in terms of what our needs are. It's doing what we want it to do."

"It's more focused on network communication. If a customer wants to increase the level of protection and start working with documents, it's impossible to integrate these features into the system. It's more of a communication-oriented system than a content security-oriented system."

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

"We have found that there are times Cortex XDR by Palo Alto Networks does not detect some of the viruses, we have to use another protection solution called Kaspersky."

"The connection to the internet has not performed as expected."

"It'll help if customization was easier."

"In terms of areas of improvement, we have not completed our review of the product. We're also looking at other products. So, it's a little bit hard to tell what could be different because we have not completed the review of this product, but based on our experience so far, its implementation is quite complex."

More Cortex XDR by Palo Alto Networks cons

"I would like to see a little bit of additional reporting or insight as to what it is doing exactly."

"The security scripting needs improvement. It needs deeper security for scripting."

"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 process of whitelisting a script that you want to be able to run can be a little bit difficult, or awkward."

"It should provide more details about the events that they have detected."

"An area for improvement in CylancePROTECT is its pricing, as it's a bit costly."

"I find the price for Blackberry Protect expensive, so that's an area for improvement."

"I would say one thing that they might need to bring in is protection for mobile devices."

More BlackBerry Cylance Cybersecurity cons

"Every site has its own key. I'm not sure how I can implement the key for the setup package, therefore with every installation I need to do it manually and put on the site keys."

"The UI appears to be flat, and I wish to have the ability to customize it with features and buttons that are tailored to our needs."

"SentinelOne Singularity Endpoint can be improved in some areas."

"The training for SentinelOne Singularity should be free."

"SentinelOne Singularity Complete takes up a lot of memory in Google Chrome, which sometimes causes it to lag, so this is an area for improvement. The solution could be improved by increasing its efficiency within the web browser."

"The previous vendor had a lot more features and capabilities under the license. For example, I lost DLP as Sentinel One does not have DLP."

"I am not a fan of the UI and feel it has room for improvement."

"The solution is expensive. It is costlier than Trend Micro and Palo Alto XDR."

More SentinelOne Singularity Endpoint cons

Pricing and Cost Advice

"It is present, but when compared to other competitive products, I would say it is not less expensive; however, when all of the other added values are considered, the price is reasonable."

"The solution has one subscription for endpoint protection and one subscription for detection and response. The two licenses combined give you the BRO version."

"If one wishes to work with another team or large number of users at a future point, he must purchase a license for them."

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

"Compared to CrowdStrike, Cortex XDR is an expensive solution."

"Our license will require renewal in August, after which the maintenance will continue as usual."

"The price of the product is not very economical."

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

More Cortex XDR by Palo Alto Networks pricing and cost advice

"The product cost is about $5, per user, per month."

"The price is reasonable for us at the moment. I rate the overall solution an eight out of ten."

"CylancePROTECT's pricing is reasonable, at about €18 per user, per year."

"The licensing part of the product is too expensive compared to other solutions in the market."

"CylancePROTECT is worth the money, but I'm not sure of its exact price. I can't remember off the top of my head."

"Review closely how many endpoints you actually need before buying into a pricing level. Deal and deal with the VAR of your choice."

"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."

"I think that the price we are paying is good for what it is."

More BlackBerry Cylance Cybersecurity pricing and cost advice

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

"I do not know much about the pricing. What I do know is that the person who negotiates most of the pricing is quite a hard bargainer. In that regard, he often says that he managed to get a very good deal. When we first looked at replacing our old system with Singularity Complete, its price was definitely a big factor. Back then, Singularity Complete was fairly new to the marketplace. We got quite a good deal as an early adopter. They have honored that and respected that we were an early adopter, and I feel we are still getting a very good price."

"The licensing is convenient, straightforward, and very clear."

"The pricing level for this service and application was very interesting for us. I don't know exactly what the price was, but apparently it was a big surprise that the SOC was also included in our pricing model."

"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."

"SentinelOne Singularity Complete is fairly priced."

"I can pay, for my environment, between $30,000 and $40,000 a year, and that's a pretty good deal."

"I rate Singularity Complete a seven out of ten for affordability. It's more expensive than our previous solution, but it does its job well. At the same time, there is some room for improvement. Cheaper is always better."
