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.

Auto scanning and enhanced security but re-adding protections need improvement
At that time, we observed certain issues with the product. The functionalities could be improved, such as the isolation feature. If we remove our protection, we cannot easily add it back. If, in our organization, we need to remove a specific system for a particular time, we cannot add it back for security after doing so. This is one thing we have experienced. Scalability is also lacking. If we want to do the same thing repeatedly, there's not much the solution offers; it isn't very strong.

Have maintained strong endpoint protection through behavioral analysis and daily monitoring
I previously mentioned that Kaspersky Endpoint Security for Business doesn't have built-in DLP, which was a concern. I think they could add it in the future; however, antivirus cannot provide a proper DLP solution, but they can offer a mix of DLP, similar to Trend Micro Apex One, which provides some sort of DLP file management. Nonetheless, we need a proper DLP solution such as Forcepoint or Symantec, whichever suits us. We'll be conducting performance evaluation in the next quarter while working on other projects. More value means a better GUI, user interface, and comprehensive reporting capabilities. In Sophos, we receive a daily system-generated report about what is happening, plus an alert system. The reporting system in Trend Micro is also excellent; I receive an email every day at 10:00 AM with a report for the last 24 hours.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"Cortex XDR lets us manage several clients from the same console, and its endpoint defense is more advanced than traditional antivirus."
"Based on my experience with Cortex XDR by Palo Alto Networks, I highly recommend it due to its quick response to zero-day attacks and low utilization from end-user devices."
"There has been a significant reduction of approximately 70% to 80% in our internal MTTR and MTTD metrics, now around five to eight minutes whereas previously it was hours, which has helped tremendously."
"The solution is a new generation XDR that has a lot of artificial intelligence modules."
"The multi-layered approach to the product gives you confidence that it will stop exploits, ransomware, worms, or viruses from compromising endpoints, essentially providing peace of mind."
"The product is very good, it has caught a lot of exploits that most products would not."
"The level of security I get for my endpoints and servers is extremely valuable."
"The initial setup isn't too bad."
"The auto-scanning feature is quite beneficial."
"We've been mostly happy with the product overall."
"In my experience, Kaspersky products have comprehensive and quick zero-day response for global and local (Indonesia) threats, including spam, Trojans, worms, etc."
"The most valuable feature is the central view, and with this view, I can see all of the data."
"They have a very good reporting system and they have a very good dashboard for the administrator, which makes monitoring everything easy."
"I find some of the most valuable features to be the anti-malware, encryption, and the EDR launching service."
"With Kaspersky Security Network (KSN), we are protected against most new threats."
"Kaspersky Endpoint Security for Business is a very powerful tool for us, and we use a lot of third-party software that integrates well with the solution."
"I am impressed with the tool's main dashboard, anti-malware application blocking, DDoS, etc."
 

Cons

"The solution can never really be an on-premises solution based simply on the way it is set up. It needs metadata to run and improve. Having an on-premises solution would cut it off from making improvements."
"The only issues that we have are, one the cost, two the dashboard is not very intuitive, even though you can drill down within the dashboard, we usually have to gather information from other sources to determine locations and if its a false positive."
"Currently, we are monitoring all USB drives and ports but we would like to improve our device control capabilities."
"The solution could improve by providing better integration with their own products and others."
"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."
"There's an overall lack of features."
"The negative aspect I see is the economic model used by Palo Alto."
"Cortex XDR is trickier to configure than other Palo Alto products. This is one area where we are not so satisfied."
"The functionalities could be improved, such as the isolation feature."
"Scalability is lacking. If we want to do the same thing repeatedly, there's not much the solution offers; it isn't very strong."
"The GUI mode in the product is an area with certain shortcomings since it looks old with the graphics provided by Kaspersky."
"It would be great if, as an additional feature, you could download updates without deploying updates to end users."
"The performance could be better. We would like to see improved performance and faster deployment in the next release."
"This solution would be improved if it were more compatible with Windows Server. There is not a client for Windows Server, like for Windows Workstation, so there are a lot of things you cannot control from the local system, or from the desktop directly. You have to control everything from the policy server, not from the client's side. The interface is kind of light, and it's not good—it could be more user-friendly."
"Kaspersky is lacking in features for DLP and protection against ransomware. I would like to see the inclusion of support for device management and device control."
"When I do a malware scan on my computer it takes a long while. This process could improve in the future. Additionally, the security could improve."
"The reporting portion of the solution is quite weak."
"It slows down the system sometimes, and it has the occasional false positive where it deems something a virus when it isn't."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"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."
"Very costly product."
"The price of the solution is high for the license and in general."
"I don't have any issues with the pricing. We are satisfied with the price."
"The tool's price is moderate."
"It's about $55 per license on a yearly basis."
"Compared to CrowdStrike, Cortex XDR is an expensive solution."
"Traps pays for itself within the first 16 months of a three-year subscription. This is attributed to OPEX savings, as security teams spent less time trying to identify and isolate malware for analysis as a result of a reduction in malware incidents, false positives, and breach avoidance."
Information not available
"The licensing is affordable. We bought a three-year license. There are no additional costs in addition to the standard license fees."
"It is a cost-effective endpoint security service."
"The solution requires a license and there are different license packages depending on the number of users you need."
"We have been using a yearly subscription and feel that pricing could be better. Perhaps, discounts could be given, during the renewal process, to those who have been customers for some time."
"Kaspersky is priced well."
"The pricing is a bit more expensive than other products."
"The solution is available at a highly affordable price"
"The product is available at a low price."
