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.

Using cloud-based console for software inventory management and email alerts
I have no idea if I use some automation functions. I can't find any disadvantages; maybe that is because many companies haven't used it. I would prefer to see some features such as AI in antivirus solutions. I appreciate reporting, but it could be better with monthly reporting or auto-generated monthly reports.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"The multi-layered approach to the product gives you confidence that it will stop exploits, ransomware, worms, or viruses from compromising endpoints, essentially providing peace of mind."
"What I like about Cortex XDR by Palo Alto Networks is that it is a comprehensive solution that contains everything the organization may need when using endpoints."
"If any application performs suspicious activities, such as changing registries or modifying other applications, Cortex XDR detects and blocks the entire application."
"In one single alert, we are getting the network telemetry, endpoint telemetry, email security telemetry, and proxy telemetry all in one single ticket, making it very easy."
"It is easy to use."
"Cortex XDR is a simple platform that's easy for administrators and users. You have a lot of flexibility to change or customize the features."
"Cortex XDR by Palo Alto Networks is easy to use and does not consume a lot of hardware resources."
"Its interface and pricing are most valuable, and it is better than other vendors in terms of security."
"The most valuable part of the solution is its ransomware backup feature."
"The two valuable features are anti-ransomware and data loss protection."
"With Seqrite, it is completely protected, and we have full control over what is happening on the end user's laptop."
"The most valuable features of the solution are DLP, XDR, and EDR functionalities."
"In case it works, we are looking to use features like USB blocking, file upload alerts, and other antivirus features as well, but this software has to work first."
"The update process and policy control are good."
"We were excited about the cloud-based management features of Seqrite and were looking to use the same."
"There are many features available in this solution, such as asset management."
"It's very easy to deploy, we don't have any problem or issues. It's most full automatic. It basically takes the assumption that everything is supposed to be a suspect; files, processes, URL accesses, and so on."
"The most valuable feature is the web filter application control."
"It allows us to stop activation windows."
"The dashboard management feature is valuable."
"It is easy to manage."
"We are very satisfied with the product."
"The product so far has been good at protecting us. We haven't faced a breach."
"The deployment of Panda Security Adaptive Defense is easy and convenient."
 

Cons

"A little bit more automation would be nice."
"They've been having some issues with updating their endpoint agents, and it has been quite frustrating."
"There's room for improvement with Mac device installations, which can be challenging."
"Product might have some bugs."
"It's not an ideal choice for smaller businesses, as you need a minimum of 200 endpoints to even use the solution at all."
"Cortex XDR could be improved with more GUI features."
"Cortex does not offer an on-premises solution. However, some customers would prefer not to be on the cloud. It would be ideal if it could offer something on-prem as well."
"The setup is quite easy. We had appropriate support from the manager. One thing that was missing was the integration part."
"When we fire any employee connected remotely over the internet, we need a security feature that blocks the system and the device."
"The interface is slow."
"The solution needs to improve stability."
"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."
"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."
"The solution could improve by providing better security and a cloud base version."
"The cost of the solution can be improved."
"I would rate Panda Adaptive Defense 360 overall eight points because I still try to find another solution that is easier for me, which can provide what I currently have in Panda Adaptive Defense 360."
"Either conclusion means we will have either false positives or false negatives."
"They need to expand their offering of add-ons to enhance capabilities further."
"The categories in the web filtering should be more comprehensive. When a URL is not categorized, I face issues."
"t would help if it would monitor the network better."
"Improvements could be made in terms of how the reporting is structured."
"It needs improvements in its EDR and its ability to manage all the nodes. I'd like better communication between the console and the nodes, so I don't have to remote into each individual machine that's having an issue with the protection."
"It would be nice if Panda Security Adaptive Defense could come out with remote desktop usage."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"Cortex XDR's pricing is ok."
"It is present, but when compared to other competitive products, I would say it is not less expensive; however, when all of the other added values are considered, the price is reasonable."
"I don't recall what the cost was, but it wasn't really that expensive."
"Very costly product."
"The solution is expensive. It's pricing is on a yearly-basis."

"Its pricing is kind of in line with its competitors and everybody else out there."
"Compared to CrowdStrike, Cortex XDR is an expensive solution."

"Though I don't think that this is a cheaply priced product, I feel that it is an affordable solution."
