Gained full visibility and streamlined threat detection through behavior-based insights and AI integration

Senior Process Expert at A.P. Moller - Maersk

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.

Strengthening financial services infrastructure by safeguarding and integrating with ecosystems

We use CyberArk Endpoint Privilege Manager to complement a privilege access management solution in order to avoid golden ticket attacks and strengthen services against attacks. It serves as a complement to our asset management solution. The architecture of CyberArk Endpoint Privilege Manager is beneficial for integrating with all customer ecosystems; it's easy to deploy, and achieving that level of integration and control is more challenging with other solutions. The ability of CyberArk Endpoint Privilege Manager to safeguard our financial services infrastructure is very important, as we need to record actions on privileges in our information systems. Regarding the granularity of the managed controls in CyberArk Endpoint Privilege Manager, we have different levels of features to define compensations and capabilities, which help us verify configurations and access, ultimately keeping the safety of rights intact. Our initial challenge with CyberArk Endpoint Privilege Manager is to comply with Colombian regulations in the financial sector, particularly identifying users and managing password changes and rotations. We needed to certify the identities and provide necessary information for government investigations, if required. CyberArk Endpoint Privilege Manager is very important for helping our organization meet compliance and regulatory requirements. We have to comply with international regulations such as SOC, but also with local regulations unique to the financial sector, which is crucial for us due to the high risks involved. CyberArk Endpoint Privilege Manager helped us reduce the time for regulatory processes to approximately two to four months, completing the solution and training. CyberArk Endpoint Privilege Manager has helped us reduce the mean time to detect within our organization. That's our main goal. Regarding MTTD, the solution provides enough information to enhance our overall detection process. We have an 85% improvement in MTTD. CyberArk Endpoint Privilege Manager helps ensure data privacy through strategies that manage information in real-time. CyberArk Endpoint Privilege Manager helps save costs by avoiding risks and future expenses associated with security incidents. It's essential to communicate the value of CyberArk Endpoint Privilege Manager to users, as its controls help improve system security. My role at the company involves service and sales activities.

Has struggled to detect major threats but has offered basic protection over time

Intercept X Endpoint could learn from CrowdStrike in terms of overall performance and filtering because performance is most important, especially these days as Windows is getting buggier and buggier, which puts a huge load on the PC, and even with the most advanced CPUs and everything in place, it still lags in performance in so many places, thanks to Windows' clumsy design of these collaboration suites that make it extremely heavy on PC's resources. The interface of Intercept X Endpoint is quite old-fashioned. The Sophos interfaces, including for Intercept X Endpoint, are quite bad actually; to be very honest, even in UTM boxes, they are not great at all. You can hardly see a very small portion of windows while it's creating the firewall rules, and we have been complaining about this for quite some time, but there hasn't been any improvement on those grounds. Intercept X Endpoint's anti-ransomware capabilities failed us during a bad attack, and just because of our own backup policies, we could restore our normal operations; otherwise, if we had to depend on this solution, we would have been long dead because the infection was so bad, it couldn't even detect the infection. Intercept X Endpoint cannot handle zero-day attacks; in my experience, last year, we had this major issue with a malware attack, and it happened just because of our backup policies that we were able to recover without any support from Sophos, which just told us they would charge us some 1 Crore in rupees. Intercept X Endpoint should improve their implementation; things will never be perfect for the new world. This new world is always facing new kinds of attacks and new ways to compromise the system. They need to learn fast, implement fast, and sometimes redesigning the solution is the solution—not just patchwork. There was a time we used to love Sophos because of its fresh design and innovative thought. In my experience, when technical companies are led by MBA professionals, they lose their shine on the technical part and become more dependent on target sales; it turns into a marketing-centric operation that loses the technical focus completely.
