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.

Centralized cloud view has improved threat response and simplified compliance reporting

We are using Trend Vision One - Cloud Security for getting complete visibility of all the assets that exist within our cloud, and it helps us identify any sort of misconfigurations or fine-tuning that can be done to better our compliance. Trend Vision One - Cloud Security helps in onboarding all the cloud solutions or cloud providers that we have within our organization into a single dashboard, thereby providing greater visibility of all the assets. Earlier we used to have multiple dashboards to manage the same solution or capability, but with Trend Micro, we are able to get everything in a single pane of glass, benefiting our operations significantly. We are using the playbooks built into Trend Vision One - Cloud Security, which help us take a lot of response actions and bring automation capabilities into play. Trend Vision One - Cloud Security has positively impacted our organization by providing a single pane of glass visibility across all the cloud solutions that we have and reducing the number of threats we used to see earlier in the cloud. We are seeing that the number of cloud operations required earlier in terms of threat detection and response, and the time taken to detect a particular threat and take a response action, has considerably improved after onboarding Trend Micro.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"Implementing Cortex XDR by Palo Alto Networks has had a significant impact on my security analyst workload because it becomes much easier."

"The ability to kind of stitch everything together and see the actual complete picture is very useful. I guess you'd call it a playbook. Some people call it the forensics analysis of what was happening on particular endpoints when they detected some malicious behavior, and what transpired before that to cause that. It is also very user friendly. The way they have done everything and integrated all the solutions that they've purchased over the years to make it a very seamless, effective product is very good. One thing about Palo Alto is that they take the products or services that they purchase and make them seamless for the end user as compared to some companies that purchase other companies and then just kind of have their products off to the side or keep different interfaces. Palo Alto doesn't do that."

"They have a new GUI which is just fantastic."

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

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

"Monitoring is most valuable."

"Cortex XDR is stable, offering high quality and reliable performance."

"Since they've done their most recent update, the ease to isolate endpoints is valuable. If we find one where there is a virus on it, we can easily isolate it. We don't even have to contact the user. We don't have to manually take them off the network. We can easily isolate them."

More Cortex XDR by Palo Alto Networks pros

"Our customers are satisfied with FortiXDR."

"FortiXDR is valuable for its integration capabilities with one hundred percent compatibility with other vendors in cloud environments like Google, Oracle, and Microsoft."

"The product is stable enough."

"FortiXDR is valuable for its integration capabilities with one hundred percent compatibility with other vendors in cloud environments like Google, Oracle, and Microsoft."

"The most valuable feature of FortiXDR is its ability to block clients, providing comprehensive endpoint protection."

"The most valuable feature of FortiXDR is it integrates well with other Fortinet solutions, such as Fortinet firewall, FortiMail, FortiSandbox, Forti Fabric, switches, and access points. Whatever the flow of the traffic comes in or goes out, the entire traffic can be managed and monitored properly."

"I really like Trend Vision One - Cloud Security's dashboard."

"I use the tool for security solutions. It's a leader in Gartner and Forrester Wave reports. Customers rely on these reports."

"The most valuable part of Trend Vision One - Cloud Security is its dashboard, as it's simple. It's easy to manage, and you can better control the solution."

"Trend Vision One - Cloud Security's best features are security analysis, remote access security, and driver security."

"The product helps us understand our environment better."

"The storage and computing features are valuable."

"The tech support is excellent. They really know their products. They also know a lot of about the integrations between different solutions."

"Trend Vision One goes beyond standard endpoint security by offering a dedicated IPS mechanism with a unique, separate database for servers, along with a large feature set specifically designed for server environments."

Cons

"Cortex XDR should have a lightweight agent, and the agent size should not be heavy."

"While using Cortex, I noticed some aspects that could be improved, such as increasing the synchronization speed between XDR and Xnor."

"In terms of areas of improvement, we have not completed our review of the product. We're also looking at other products. So, it's a little bit hard to tell what could be different because we have not completed the review of this product, but based on our experience so far, its implementation is quite complex."

"Data privacy is a matter of concern. You have to be careful with data privacy, it can be sensitive and Cortex can have most of your access."

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

"Cortex XDR could improve its sales support team, including better commission structures and referral programs."

"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 GUI could be improved."

More Cortex XDR by Palo Alto Networks cons

"Improvement is needed in the intuitiveness and integration measures of FortiXDR, especially in terms of compatibility."

"They could change their licensing costs to make it more affordable for smaller businesses."

"The pricing of FortiXDR should be improved."

"The pricing of FortiXDR should be improved. It's a point of concern for us."

"Many of the solutions, such as CrowdStrike have an MDR solution where remediation can be provided by the vendor. For example, if there is any zero data threat found, a new threat that the customer is not able to recognize, fix, or understand what needs to be done this feature has to be added in FortiXDR so that the customer feels comfortable."

"They could change their licensing costs to make it more affordable for smaller businesses."

"The dashboard should be a bit more intuitive."

"They should provide a way for users to see violations for specific compliance."

"The local agent should be able to show more logs. At present, the logs are only available from the web console and not from the local agent."

"Documentation on cloud architecture and job architecture would be helpful."

"The initial setup can be complex for the inexperienced."

"While it provides some data protection within its security framework, it doesn't allow users to customize policies or create their own for specific needs."

"The workbook insights generate a massive list, making it inconvenient to review."

"The solution should include more integrations and a universal connector with other firewalls for SNMP protocols."

Pricing and Cost Advice

"The solution is expensive. It's pricing is on a yearly-basis."

"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."

"It's about $55 per license on a yearly basis."

"If one wishes to work with another team or large number of users at a future point, he must purchase a license for them."

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

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

"Cortex XDR's pricing is ok."

More Cortex XDR by Palo Alto Networks pricing and cost advice

"This is an expensive solution compared to other vendors, such as Check Point."

"The price could be lower. That is a bit of a consideration."

"One year ago, Trend transitioned to a credit system for licensing, which has confused users."

"I rate the solution's pricing a six out of ten."

"Pricing for Trend Micro Cloud One Container Security in the corporate market is okay."

"It's a slightly expensive product."

"The is price is 25% cheaper than it was a couple of years ago, which is good."

"While Trend Vision One - Cloud Security was a cost-effective solution for us in 2021, we've noticed a recent price increase that makes it less affordable."

"With everything I deal with, Trend Micro Cloud One's pricing is somewhere in the middle."

XDR Defined and Explained
Extended detection and response (XDR) is a natural extension of the endpoint detection and response (EDR) concept, in which behaviors that occur after threat prevention controls act are further inspected for potentially malicious, suspicious, or risky activity that warrant mitigation. The difference is simply the location (endpoint or beyond) where the behaviors occur.
