    My main use case for Arctic Wolf Managed Detection and Response is as an EDR solution. I use Arctic Wolf Managed Detection and Response on my EC2 instances.

    What is most valuable?

    The best features Arctic Wolf Managed Detection and Response offers include a really good console that makes it easy to spot many issues.

    The console helps my team day-to-day by speeding up investigations. It is very easy to navigate through and find out why certain traces are happening.

    Arctic Wolf Managed Detection and Response has positively impacted my organization by making us feel much safer in terms of security. When any issues arise, I know that I have something as an EDR tool to rely on. It also helps us with security questionnaires by making it easier for my team to answer common questions about what I use for EDR solutions and what I use for my CSPM module.

    What needs improvement?

    I do not see any point of criticism so far regarding Arctic Wolf Managed Detection and Response. The three points off are due to the menu being hard to use when trying to get to specific locations.

    I have been using Arctic Wolf Managed Detection and Response for eight months.

    What do I think about the stability of the solution?

    What was our ROI?

    I have seen a return on investment, definitely saving about 20% of time in triaging security incidents, which has led to much less panic. I have also saved money in terms of the cost of security incident payouts.

    Automation has transformed incident response and now stops phishing attacks rapidly
    Pros and Cons
    • "This change is very useful for my SOC team as it reduces time and provides a fast response to the incident."
    • "I think Palo Alto Networks Cortex XSOAR can be improved as it has a little bit higher cost than any other SOAR."

    What is our primary use case?

    My main use case for Palo Alto Networks Cortex XSOAR is automation and running playbooks. It is providing connectors to automate and stop security incidents on our network.

    I can share a specific situation where I used Palo Alto Networks Cortex XSOAR to automate and stop a security incident. We already have XCM from Palo Alto on the cloud and we have implemented Palo Alto Networks Cortex XSOAR to automate our SOC operations. Whenever we have a security incident, the playbooks we have already set on Palo Alto Networks Cortex XSOAR run and provide powerful automation to stop any security incident. For example, with phishing attempts, after integrating with Palo Alto Networks Cortex XSOAR and our email gateway, we can stop phishing and delete the user and stop the user on Active Directory.

    This change is very useful for my SOC team as it reduces time and provides a fast response to the incident. That is really helpful.

    What is most valuable?

    In my opinion, the best features Palo Alto Networks Cortex XSOAR offers are many integrations, powerful capabilities, and at the marketplace, you can have any connector or any playbook on the marketplace for Palo Alto Networks Cortex XSOAR.

    Out of all the integrations or connectors I have used, that is a very good one. That is the best one I have used in our organization.

    Palo Alto Networks Cortex XSOAR has positively impacted my organization by adding security automation to our environment. It is really helpful to stop incidents at an early time.

    I can share that we have noticed a reduction in incident response time since using Palo Alto Networks Cortex XSOAR. We have a very short MTTR and fewer security breaches since we have been using Palo Alto Networks Cortex XSOAR.

    What needs improvement?

    I think Palo Alto Networks Cortex XSOAR can be improved as it has a little bit higher cost than any other SOAR. I think Palo Alto needs to reconsider the pricing for Palo Alto Networks Cortex XSOAR.

    For how long have I used the solution?

    I have been using Palo Alto Networks Cortex XSOAR for six months.

    How are customer service and support?

    Palo Alto support is very good.

    How would you rate customer service and support?

    Positive

    What other advice do I have?

    I would not like to add anything else about my main use case or how I am using Palo Alto Networks Cortex XSOAR. I would not like to add anything else about the features. I would not like to add more about the needed improvements.

    The advice I would give to others looking into using Palo Alto Networks Cortex XSOAR is that you should work and learn more about it and take a training course on Palo Alto Networks Cortex XSOAR. It will be helpful and very useful to you to implement and install Palo Alto Networks Cortex XSOAR. I would rate this product a 10 out of 10.

    Which deployment model are you using for this solution?

    If public cloud, private cloud, or hybrid cloud, which cloud provider do you use?
