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.

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

"From a single pane of glass, you can easily manage all of your endpoints."

"It collects and caches and the knowledge of machine learning from different customers to take to the cloud. It makes it better to use for everybody. It allows for quick learning and updates and can, therefore, offer zero-day malware security. This sharing of metadata helps make the solution very safe."

"Threat identification and detection are the most valuable features of this solution."

"It integrates well into the environment."

"Cortex XDR's most valuable feature is its intelligence-based dashboards."

"The positive impacts I see from Cortex XDR by Palo Alto Networks include a complete 360-degree view of our security posture altogether, being a uniform platform where we are ingesting logs from multiple resources."

"Their XDR agent and their behavioral indicators of compromise (BIOC) are pretty nice. Their managed threat hunting is also pretty nice. They also have WildFire, which is a service for actively looking for malware. It's quite useful."

"The level of security I get for my endpoints and servers is extremely valuable."

More Cortex XDR by Palo Alto Networks pros

"The most valuable feature of Datto EDR is the visibility of the endpoints."

"The ease of deployment has been good."

"Datto Endpoint Detection and Response is a perfect product for endpoint security."

"The insight that the solution provides is the most valuable aspect. The security scanning they do is excellent."

"It's quite scalable."

"It's a plug-and-play solution that works well with other out of box integrations that we have."

"Being able to keep track of the endpoints and the data that is available from the endpoints is valuable. We can see the patch levels, whether Windows endpoints are active or inactive, and who is the last user that was logged on. We get a lot of granular information that is valuable even what we are not talking from a security standpoint."

"The most valuable aspect, in any scenario, was the rollback feature."

"The solution offers excellent detection and integration capabilities."

"We find the solution to be scalable."

"I was extremely happy with their technical staff. The solution's tech support is top-notch. They have some really good engineers on their team."

"SentinelOne uses behavioral analysis and artificial intelligence to detect unknown malware."

More SentinelOne Singularity Complete pros

Cons

"The solution should force customers to integrate with network traffic to see the full benefits of XDR."

"However, if you do not have Palo Alto in your environment, you are paying these additional services just for Cortex XDR by Palo Alto Networks, so it is not a cost-effective solution."

"To jump from the partner to Palo Alto directly was challenging."

"I would like to see them include NDR (Network Detection Response)."

"Additionally, I think the price is very high, and if it can be adjusted, I believe it will be a very good solution."

"The price could be a little lower."

"The solution needs better reports. I think they should let the customer go in and customize the reports."

"Currently, we are monitoring all USB drives and ports but we would like to improve our device control capabilities."

More Cortex XDR by Palo Alto Networks cons

"The deployment of the solution right now is terrible. We find it to be very bad. It could be improved enormously."

"The solution should allow the automation of playbooks."

"The solution could improve by having more deployment methods."

"The inclusion of web filtering would be good."

"Security could always be better."

"SentinelOne could improve by creating an autopilot or automated way to roll out the solution more efficiently which would be helpful."

"Generally, the stability is good, but I would like to see better stability from the solution. The stability issue is partially a con of a behavioral-based product, but being behavioral-based, it also has a lot of pros."

"In automation, if we could schedule when we run the task and on which systems we want to run the task, it would improve automation."

"Communication and documentation could be improved."

"Some reports could be better."

"Some of the reports that are exported through SentinelOne can be complicated for people who are not IT professionals. For example, we have some people within our leadership who would like to know why we are spending so much money on their product, and one of the ways that we are able to do that is through reports. Some of those reports are pretty easy to understand, and some of them are very complicated. Because they are not IT or security professionals, they may not have the same grasp. I wish their reporting feature was a little better."

"They can just continue adding more integrations with these big brands and software security products."

Pricing and Cost Advice

"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."

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

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

"It's the most expensive solution, but features-wise, it's quite strong. It's very good for protection, so the results are very good in the case of protection. I would rate it a two out of ten in terms of pricing."

"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."

"The price is on the higher side, but it's okay."

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

"It is cost-effective compared to similar solutions. It fits for the small businesses through to the big businesses."

More Cortex XDR by Palo Alto Networks pricing and cost advice

"Datto Endpoint Detection and Response is not an expensive solution."

"There is an annual license to use this solution. The price of the solution can be expensive depending on the company."

"The license is paid annually and is competitive."

"SentinelOne's pricing could be lower."

"The cost of Singularity Complete is similar to our previous solution but it comes with additional options such as Kubernetes integration."

"The pricing is comparable with other vendors but some customers find it a bit costly."

"We pay $30,000 a year for 275 endpoints. We're growing, so I plan to buy another 75 endpoints. There is still a year and a half left in my three-year subscription, so I'm going to increase my endpoint count by 30 percent."

"At this time it is only a trial. After the trial period, I am going to purchase two licenses from SentinelOne."

"SentinelOne was half the price of CrowdStrike."

"From what I understand, it is pricey, but it works. It is a very good product."
