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.

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

"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."

"Automation and playbooks have helped me significantly, as Cortex Xnor's playbooks predefine the workflow of the automation, such as response processes, alert triggering, and enriching the context, efficiently detecting and blocking malicious attacks with firewalls while eliminating workload and speeding responses for next-generation operations."

"It blocks malicious files, prevents attacks, and doesn't require many updates because it is a very light application."

"Its interface and pricing are most valuable. It is better than other vendors in terms of security."

"I've found the solution to be highly scalable for enterprises."

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

"This software helps us understand any issues that may arise when someone is not at work."

"Monitoring is most valuable."

More Cortex XDR by Palo Alto Networks pros

"The solution is pretty easy to scale."

"Blackberry Protect offers endpoint protection. It's easy to deploy. It's scalable and stable."

"We are quite security-focused. Blackberry Protect as an endpoint solution for our service really delivers what we are expecting."

"Blackberry Protect as an endpoint solution for our service really delivers what we are expecting."

"My advice to someone considering this solution is that it's a popular product and you should really go for it."

"CylancePROTECT is going to tell you if there are any issues and you are going to be able to see everything from one single dashboard."

"CylancePROTECT is very stable - we've had no issues with performance and no errors or bugs."

More BlackBerry Cylance Cybersecurity pros

"The reporting part is awesome."

"Singularity Platform's functionality for ransomware rollback is quite useful because if you have a ransomware attack, most EDR solutions do not have the feature to do a rollback and bring the system to its earlier state, but that is one of the unique features that Singularity Platform has which can be a game changer for customers."

"My advice would be to implement SentinelOne immediately; it is one of the top things that we've implemented and it has saved us countless hours."

"The most valuable feature of SentinelOne is the good graph it provides. It has a specific page where it detects the recent attacks on other machines or the hackers, for example, group APT28 and all."

"I appreciate the network control as well as the device control."

"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."

"Ransomware blocking is a better feature in SentinelOne Singularity."

"The initial setup of SentinelOne is very easy. You only need to turn it on and it starts working with a couple of clicks."

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."

"Although I would say this product is highly-rated, it could probably do more because nothing does everything that you want."

"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."

"For Cortex XDR by Palo Alto Networks, if I had to point out improvements, I would say the UI is still somewhat difficult for beginners."

"I would like to see better protection, specifically to protect email applications."

"Being able to filter the events to see those that are related to the actual alert would save time spent by the engineer."

"It is not easy to sell Cortex XDR, not because it isn't a good tool. Its marketing needs to be improved."

"The setup is quite easy. We had appropriate support from the manager. One thing that was missing was the integration part."

More Cortex XDR by Palo Alto Networks cons

"I would like to see a better UI in terms of sifting through more specific data and providing analytics."

"The solution should implement AI in the product."

"Work on the math model. We are catching a lot of false positives, which gets to be a pain at the start of a deployment."

"They could improve on the false positives, reporting and whitelisting features."

"The management console needs a little maturity in how it presents data and allows the administrator to drill down or search across systems."

"It should have better support for Windows and Mac."

"The OPTICS component could be made more user-friendly with respect to giving people more information."

"It needs real analysis of quarantined files. The EDR product isn't showing much right now."

More BlackBerry Cylance Cybersecurity cons

"Set up is very labor-intensive."

"Generally, the stability is good, but I would like to see better stability from the solution."

"Some reports could be better."

"I would like to have firewall functionality within SentinelOne Singularity Complete."

"The agent update is not the most intuitive process, but I understand why they do it. We have a pretty vertical 64-bit environment for Windows. That is pretty much all we have, but we get alerts for things like the new Linux endpoint or things that do not apply to us. That is probably the only thing that I do not like. There may be some way to turn that off so that I do not get endpoint update alerts from platforms that are not applicable to our system, enterprise, or network."

"One area of SentinelOne that definitely has room for improvement is the reporting. The canned reports are clunky and we haven't been able to pull a lot of good information directly from them."

"The compatibility with new legacy systems should be enhanced as other EDR products support these systems, which Singularity does not."

"Improvements for SentinelOne's Singularity Complete could include adjusting pricing for specific markets, ensuring affordability, and better alignment with customer expectations in those regions."

More SentinelOne Singularity Endpoint cons

Pricing and Cost Advice

"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."

"Cortex XDR is a costly solution."

"Our customers have expressed that the price is high."

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

"In terms of the cost Cortex XDR by Palo Alto Networks is very expensive because we are a Mexican company and when you translate dollars to pesos the cost is very high. The solution is very expensive for Mexican companies. I understand that they have international prices, but I do not think it offsets the price enough for many companies in countries, such as Mexico. The amount it is reduced is not a massive percentage."

"When we first bought it, it was a bit expensive, but it was worth it. The licensing was straightforward."

"The cost depends on your chosen license type, like Pro or other licenses."

"Its pricing is kind of in line with its competitors and everybody else out there."

More Cortex XDR by Palo Alto Networks pricing and cost advice

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

"Our licensing cost for the solution is around $4,000 for six months. There are no costs in addition to the standard licensing fees."

"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."

"The solution's pricing is around the same as most EDRs but slightly behind some of the major ones."

"It is expensive, but not unreasonable."

"Do not get hung up on price. You pay for what you get and expensive will hurt one time, where cheap will hurt forever, especially if you fall victim to a ransom attack, etc."

"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."

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

More BlackBerry Cylance Cybersecurity pricing and cost advice

"It is comparatively cheap in the market and provides a good price point."

"Its cost is yearly. It is not much costlier than other leading products available in the market. I would rate it a four out of five in terms of pricing."

"Overall, it was a good experience. It is pretty easy for us to increase the number."

"The cost of utilizing all the features of SentinelOne Singularity Complete is high."

"SentinelOne is significantly less expensive than CrowdStrike. I recently did a price comparison between CrowdStrike and SentinelOne to determine where we are going for the next three years. CrowdStrike is 200% to 300% the cost."

"The solution's price/performance ratio is reasonable."

"SentinelOne makes licensing easy by reducing the number of modules or packages that they have to offer. A lot of other vendors make licensing very complicated with separate modules or separate costs. By bundling necessary features, SentinelOne ensures that security leaders are not left confused by options. This bundling of necessities has served our needs well."

"It is expensive. There is no doubt about it. If one of the functions does not work, it becomes very difficult for any CIO to justify the cost."
