Ensures robust security management with seamless integration
We work with the cloud version of Cortex Xpanse. We are working with Palo Alto products right at the moment. We have Cortex and GlobalProtect that we are using. I'm not sure if we utilize Cortex Xpanse's capability to identify internet-facing assets. I'm not sure about the automated threat assessment of Cortex helping prioritize vulnerabilities. I would assess the integration capabilities of Cortex Xpanse as good; no issues so far with integration with other tools from different vendors. Cortex Xpanse supports our organization's regulatory compliance efforts 100%, and it's what we need from it. Right now, I am working only with Palo Alto for security. I am not planning to work with some other vendors. On a scale of one to ten, I rate Cortex Xpanse a nine.

Built faster threat response and improved visibility with real-time monitoring and flexible deployment
TrendAI Vision One allows us to monitor attacks in real time, which is a significant benefit. We can quickly see where the attack is coming from. TrendAI Vision One enables us to use different products with a flexible license. For example, if a customer is using endpoint security and wants to switch to another solution, they can instantly use a different Trend Micro product, such as email. TrendAI Vision One has helped to reduce the time to detect and respond to different threats, as it can respond to attacks very quickly. With playbook templates, in cases of recurring attacks, responses can be made quickly using predefined playbooks. TrendAI Vision One has helped to reduce noise from false positives. There have been false positives before, but it was due to the customer not telling us which app they were using. Best practice configurations must be applied properly to avoid such issues. TrendAI Vision One helps customers consolidate the use of security vendors and reduce silos by offering one platform for all product management.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"The most valuable features of the solution are its firewall and antivirus."
"As an attack surface manager, I highly recommend Cortex Xpanse, especially if there are many services exposed publicly on the internet."
"The most valuable aspect is its ability to catch trojans and malware."
"Cortex Xpanse has an easy-to-use user interface."
"Cortex Xpanse is a strong solution for attack surface management, including digital brand protection and continuous monitoring."
"When there is an alert from Cortex Xpanse regarding a certificate or surface, it prompts us to take immediate action."
"The best feature of the product is that it's easy to manage when we have set it up, and the beneficial impact of Cortex Xpanse for the company is security."
"TrendAI Vision One has positively impacted our organization by giving us fewer false positive alerts, and with its support, we are securing our environment against upcoming vulnerabilities such as zero-day attacks."
"I like Vision One's observed attack techniques feature. It lets you see what an attacker is doing, how they have tried to exploit a machine, or how malicious code is operating. It helps us discover indicators of compromise so we can write better rules for detection."
"TrendAI Vision One has greatly reduced my time to detect and respond to threats."
"The ease of configuration, customization, and organization are what I appreciate the most about TrendAI Vision One."
"It is so helpful to have something that pulls all the data into one visual representation of the events."

"TrendAI Vision One has positively impacted my organization by specifically helping improve security posture and response time for threat handling, as well as improving our cyber risk score."
"Trend Vision One's most valuable feature is its centralized console, which provides comprehensive security features, including attack surface risk management."
 

Cons

"There is an issue with the old versions of Cortex, and so when we have an older one with Windows or any OS, we have a problem with its connectivity with the cloud."
"Cortex Xpanse needs to add dark-web scanning."
"Some improvements are needed in the user interface. It may require more enhancements."
"It's challenging to confirm the absolute coverage and penetration of Cortex Xpanse into the Dark Web. The solution lacks comprehensive intelligence on adversaries and risks, which other competitors might provide."
"Cortex Xpanse should offer better customization and configuration options on its dashboard."
"Regarding technical support, I would rate it as a seven."
"They need to modify their licensing mechanism and improve their AI-based detections."
"While blocking an IP address restricts access for 30 days, it eventually becomes accessible again."
"I find TrendAI Vision One not scalable; it is not easy to scale it up or out."
"They have a DLP module in Tredn Moicros and they need to enhance its capabilities."
"Their technical support isn't that great."
"It is a bit slow to implement kernel support on the Linux side. When doing patching and upgrades on our Linux servers, we often find that the Trend agent doesn't support the kernel version."
"The support documentation could be more comprehensive."
"While the continuous addition of features is commendable, the sheer volume of changes makes it difficult to stay abreast of the latest developments."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"The tool's cost is too high."
"Cortex Xpanse is cheaper than other solutions."
"The pricing for Trend Vision One is reasonable."
"I do not have much visibility to it. It is definitely not a cheap product, but to my knowledge, it is out there with the big wigs in the industry, such as CrowdStrike, SentinelOne, and other EDR/XDR vendors. I had heard, and found out eventually, that their sales teams are very flexible, as more sales teams are."
"We have an annual subscription and I believe there is no option for monthly billing at the moment."
"Trend Micro recently switched from a license-based pricing model to a credit system, which caused some initial frustration during my renewal."
"I find it to be a cost-efficient platform."
"Its price is very decent. It suits our requirements."
"Trend Micro XDR is expensive, and you have to pay for it yearly."
"It is definitely not cheap. I do believe you get what you pay for to some degree. It is cost-effective."
