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.

Security platform has reduced malware risk and has strengthened compliance for macOS endpoints

Jamf Protect provides multiple levels of telemetry collection, allowing me to select how sensitive I want to be on event triggers. Jamf Protect allows me to monitor against specific threat categories aligned to the MITRE ATT&CK framework. In addition to protection, I utilize Jamf Protect to monitor our endpoint compliance with the CIS critical security control baseline. If the environment is predominantly Apple based, Jamf Protect is a strong solution for providing EDR capabilities to endpoints. The detection capabilities are on par with other leading EDR tools, and it integrates well with Jamf MDM. The compliance telemetry, log forwarding, and USB device management included as part of Jamf Protect provide a good return on investment. Jamf Protect has had a positive impact on my organization, as it has been one of the best tools that protects against malware. It offers better detection of malware, reducing downtime and risk to our network by approximately 30 to 50 percent. Implementing it is straightforward, although there can be a steep learning curve in general, especially for less technical users. The competitive pricing included in the business package is great, and compliance with our security standards has been maintained.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"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."

"The stability of the solution is very good. We have about 100 users on it right now, and we use it twice a week."

"Since using Cortex XDR by Palo Alto Networks, our MTTR has reduced, which means the mean time to resolve any ticket has been reduced."

"But overall, when we speak about security and protection, they are one of the top providers."

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

"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, and this sharing of metadata helps make the solution very safe."

"Being a cloud solution it is very flexible in serving internal and external connections and a broad range of devices."

"The solution doesn't need a high level of technical training."

More Cortex XDR by Palo Alto Networks pros

"I rate the technical support a ten out of ten."

"The features I find most valuable in Jamf Protect are amazing because any malware or any viruses can harm the entire fleet, and Jamf Protect takes action and protects against any alerts, and we are safe from any viruses and any attacks from the entire world."

"Jamf Protect is a security product that helps us with CIS benchmarks and threat prevention."

"If some other organization is using Jamf Pro, they should definitely go for Jamf Protect, as that will streamline many things for them."

"My advice for others looking into using Jamf Protect is that it is an excellent tool to use to secure your devices, so I would recommend moving forward with it."

"Jamf Protect has had a positive impact on my organization, as it has been one of the best tools that protects against malware."

"Jamf Protect searches incoming and outgoing traffic for malware to monitor the network for security."

"The tool's tech support is helpful and efficient. It also has an active community."

More Jamf Protect pros

"The solution has many features. It is very easy to define and set the policies based on the user groups, it does not take up a lot of resources in operation, and has provided us with a good track record of protection."

"It is very light, it is the only solution that can be installed on a machine that already has an antivirus, and it is a pretty complete solution."

"Low performance requirements."

"It monitors traffic and keeps us from getting ransomware or other viruses."

"The most valuable aspect of Webroot Business Endpoint Protection is that I have never gotten malware with it."

"My advice about this product is that it is a very good solution and offers a stable and trusted software that runs smoothly and is easy to deploy."

"Webroot pioneered integration of novel concepts in endpoint protection."

More OpenText Core Endpoint Protection pros

Cons

"The solution should offer more dashboards and they should be better customized."

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

"Based on our experience so far, its implementation is quite complex."

"I feel that it should not be a licensed activity because a feature should allow us to see applications running on end devices."

"There's an overall lack of features."

"The product's pricing needs improvement. They could provide more discounts. Additionally, the dashboard and control panel could be enhanced."

"The connection to the internet has not performed as expected."

"I have seen lagging with Cortex XDR by Palo Alto Networks. There was one time when we faced a threat actor trying to gain access to our system. When our team utilized the tool, we were all on the same dashboard and we faced a lag issue at that time of around five minutes, which was quite significant."

More Cortex XDR by Palo Alto Networks cons

"The scope of improvement will fall under the support hierarchy that the tool offers to the latest version that Apple derives for any of the latest operating systems to launch."

"To improve Jamf Protect, I suggest enhancing the end user onboarding user experience, expanding out-of-the-box support for additional SIEMs, and noting that the user interface takes some getting used to."

"Jamf Protect needs to improve its pricing."

"Jamf Protect can be improved because iOS and iPad protection is still limited compared to macOS coverage."

"Regarding improvements for Jamf Protect, I receive the warnings related to insecure website accesses through mail at a later stage, so if they could be flagged the moment I visit them, that would be great because I would know exactly which website was causing the warnings."

"The solution's integration with other tools is slow."

"The dependency on Jamf Pro or SIEM or SOAR for some automations and integrations could be reduced."

"The dashboard of Jamf Protect is quite challenging to understand, so it would be great if it were more user-friendly."

More Jamf Protect cons

"This product has room for improvement to display a more detailed representation of the problem when a virus is or isn't stopped."

"It would be great if there was a feature which would allow you to scan an individual file on an endpoint user's computer."

"Usually, when it comes to reliability, McAfee and Norton are at 99 percent. Webroot's percentage is lower. It is 94% reliable in terms of what it catches, but you're trading that percentage for customer satisfaction because your computer isn't being constantly told that it just blocked something, or it just did something."

"Areas for improvement would be the reporting system in the admin console."

"Unified threat management (UTM) integration."

"There is one thing that is deplorable with the product that I would change as soon as I found a better one. However, the reports are worthless."

"One of the biggest pain points is that it's not really ransomware-oriented. They will be able to catch some, but that's where Sentinel One is a better player compared to Webroot."

"An updated UI would be nice, but is not hardly used."

More OpenText Core Endpoint Protection cons

Pricing and Cost Advice

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

"We pay about $50,000 USD per year for a bundle that includes Cortex XDR."
