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.

Advanced threat detection undermined by issues with blocking

NetWitness Endpoint's blocking feature does not work properly - if there's a malicious process, it's not possible to kill it via a custom rule unless and until it's flagged as malicious. For example, if you put IOCs in the form of hashes, it's not possible to block those IOCs - the system will alert you, but they can't be blocked. In the next release, NetWitness Endpoint should include regular expressions for blocking processes and sub-processes, the ability to block IPs, and scalability and integration with the ServiceNow platform or other ticketing solutions.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"Its interface and pricing are most valuable, and it is better than other vendors in terms of security."

"The most valuable features are the fact that it was running in the background and it would intercept any weird stuff, and the fact that it would send things directly to the cloud for sandboxing. It's quite practical."

"Cortex is the best tool for endpoint detection, and I have used it to verify hashes or domains to identify malicious activity, trigger playbooks that automate and gather endpoint logs, block malicious processes, and update incident tickets, showcasing end-to-end processes with automation in investigation and reducing the analysis workflow."

"The most valuable feature of Cortex XDR by Palo Alto Networks is the low consumption of system resources. The solution uses a lot of AI and machine learning."

"The live terminal is probably the best thing ever. It gives you the access to get straight onto any machine."

"Cortex XDR by Palo Alto Networks's ability to block sophisticated threats in real time is quite good and is on par with SentinelOne's."

"Cortex XDR by Palo Alto Networks is easy to use and does not consume a lot of hardware resources."

"WildFire AI is the best option for this product."

More Cortex XDR by Palo Alto Networks pros

"The solution is stable."

"The detection rate and tracking features including historical tracking, tracking of the fires on the desk, and tracking of the file last monitored are all quite valuable for us."

"NetWitness Endpoint has enabled us to detect attacks that bypass the first stage of cybersecurity, like zero-day and advanced attacks."

"The interface of this solution is very flexible and easy to use."

"The stability of the RSA NetWitness Endpoint is very good."

"This solution allows us to locate the malware in real-time."

"It is very easy to use, and its usability is great."

"It is stable. We have been using it for some time, without any issues."

More NetWitness NDR pros

"The solution effectively detects malicious files and blocks sign-ins."

"We were excited about the cloud-based management features of Seqrite and were looking to use the same."

"The two valuable features are anti-ransomware and data loss protection."

"The only thing that I have found useful is that I have an overview of my systems in the networks."

"There are many features available in this solution, such as asset management."

"The product's initial setup phase is easy."

"The most valuable part of the solution is its ransomware backup feature."

"I like Seqrite's web protection features and external device control."

More Seqrite Endpoint Security pros

Cons

"There are some limitations on the Traps agents."

"When it comes to malware files, it should be a little quick because, at times, it would give a wrong result in the sense of what it might be on malware, even if it still might be a normal one."

"It's not an ideal choice for smaller businesses, as you need a minimum of 200 endpoints to even use the solution at all."

"The solution lags to the real-time scenarios here and there."

"If you compare it to SentinelOne, which has more functionalities and detection capabilities on an open platform, the pricing on SentinelOne is far more reasonable and cheaper than Cortex XDR by Palo Alto Networks."

"Cortex XDR by Palo Alto Networks is a very good product, but financially, it is very expensive, so the company should look into that area."

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

"We have found that there are times Cortex XDR by Palo Alto Networks does not detect some of the viruses, we have to use another protection solution called Kaspersky."

More Cortex XDR by Palo Alto Networks cons

"When analyzing something, you have to click several times. It requires a lot of effort to find something."

"The contamination feature could be improved."

"The solution lacks a reporting engine."

"The threat intelligence could improve in RSA NetWitness Endpoint."

"Its price could be improved. It is an expensive product. Its training is also too expensive. It would be great if they can have a better pricing scheme for the training."

"The solution is modular, for example you can buy the RSA ePack, which you buy as a module is not part of the conduit solution. They could include it and have it as an all-in-one solution."

"We would like to see the hunting and investigation features of this solution improved, in order to provide better visibility of issues."

"The integration of the solution needs to be improved. The dashboard needs lots of updates as well. In the next release, we would like to see advanced fraud detection features."

More NetWitness NDR cons

"The solution needs to improve stability."

"The product or service could be improved by incorporating SIEM integrations to enable the collection of logs."

"The solution could improve by providing better security and a cloud base version."

"Deployment of Seqrite Endpoint Security is generally straightforward. The only complexity we encounter is that, since it is cloud-based, there can be delays in updating the endpoint's status."

"The solution's integration capabilities are moderate and could be improved."

"User management could be improved."

"Sometimes, small and medium businesses, or even startups with just five, ten, or fifteen systems, are also keen to secure their data. There is a reluctance on the part of the technical team to extend installation support when the opportunity sizes are smaller. Seqrite Endpoint Security has a lot of value. Still, its marketing could be done much better on a larger scale, especially in India, in light of the new DPDP 2023 Act, which the Indian Parliament passed. It would be even more valuable if Seqrite could incorporate features to help companies comply with this law, it would be even more helpful."

"The support offered by the tool is an area of concern where improvements are required."

More Seqrite Endpoint Security cons

Pricing and Cost Advice

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

"Cortex XDR by Palo Alto Networks is an expensive solution."

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

"Very costly product."

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

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

"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."

"Cortex XDR’s pricing is very reasonable."

More Cortex XDR by Palo Alto Networks pricing and cost advice

"I do not have any opinion on the pricing or licensing of the product."

"With RSA, there is flexibility in choosing the service, products, and the range that meets your requirement, as well as they are flexible in terms of pricing."

"The price of the solution depends on the environment. If the environment is large then it will cost more. However, the larger the environment with more endpoints, you will receive an increased discount. If the environment is very small, then you might think it is expensive. It is always better to buy in bulk to receive a discount. The minimum number of assets is usually 500, with discounts on 1000 and 2000."

"The cost depends on the number of endpoints that you want to monitor, but it is not expensive."

"It is an expensive product."

"They can easily adjust if you have the requirements which are required. If you have a budget cut or a budget constraint, they can bend."

"The pricing is not very economical. It is a quite costly product for India. One thing is that when you purchase it, you have to purchase a module separately."

"We are on a three-year contract to use RSA NetWitness Network."

More NetWitness NDR pricing and cost advice

"Licensing fees are on a yearly basis. Compared to other solutions, this solution is cheaper."

"You need to pay for a yearly license for Seqrite Endpoint Security, which is expensive."

"There is no option to refund the money and unfortunately, we bought a three-year license, seeing that Quick Heal is a long-established player in the market."

"The license isn't expensive."

"We get the tool for around 1200 rupees for a three-year subscription. I rate its pricing a nine out of ten."

"It is a cheaply priced product."

"The solution's pricing is good for us, where it is neither cheap nor expensive."

"Endpoint Security is cheaper than Trend Micro."
