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.

Effective real-time threat detection and reduced network congestion improves security posture

We are not currently using the automated patching or patch management. The security analytics feature, which could help us stay compliant with industry standards, hasn't been enabled yet. Currently running on-premise, we are considering moving to the cloud-based Bitdefender GravityZone Enterprise Security because it offers more features compared to the on-premises version. We've experienced multiple failures during appliance upgrades, sometimes requiring us to resort to backup. Mobile and cloud features are currently missing in Bitdefender GravityZone Enterprise Security. Operating from the primary site, we face challenges with the on-premises version when working from the DR site, which is why we want to move to the cloud for continuous protection during site failovers.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"Cortex XDR by Palo Alto Networks should be a stable solution."

"One thing that I like about Cortex XDR by Palo Alto Networks, it is detecting all the suspicious or malicious binaries, and it has integration with Palo Alto Firewall."

"The solution's most valuable feature is the user interface."

"We can visualize and control the activities in the environment from anywhere."

"I have found the solution to be very easy in respect of the integration and configurable."

"Monitoring is most valuable."

"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."

"It'll not slow down your system when compared to others."

More Cortex XDR by Palo Alto Networks pros

"Security for malware and threats is the most valuable feature."

"The solution is very scalable."

"The tool has a firewall module to control traffic. It also has a feature to map incidents and provide information about attackers and the environment."

"The most valuable feature is the security of the DNS protection and the core security antivirus engine."

"Virus scan and the ability to remotely install are valuable features. Being able to manage everything in one place and set different policies and rules for different computer types are very useful features. It also has ransomware protection. It is very simple to use, and it is very effective."

"We find the protection the solution provides valuable."

"Protection is the most valuable feature."

"I find Bitdefender to be very light. When we were using the other versions, users would complain that they would make the computers slow. But since we have deployed Bitdefender, we haven't had that."

More Bitdefender GravityZone Enterprise Security pros

"The traffic security monitoring, traffic application access feature called the agent, the main feature which is the endpoint security feature are the ones I found valuable. And it also had the in branch security in kind of SD WAN, good three hundred and sixty protection. It is specific and there is ease of deployment also present."

"Webroot's tech support is pretty good; they've given me some pointers."

"We've not had any issues with scalability. If an organization needs to expand, they can do so quite easily."

"Customer Service: Top-of-the-line; the busy community as well. Technical Support: Top-of-the-line; the busy community as well."

"Auto-Remediation"

"The solution is very simple and straightforward to use."

"Previously, we used a mix of Trend/Sophos/Symantec. Webroot has all their best bits combined into one solution."

"The main reason we had Webroot is that it was cost-effective for our clients."

More OpenText Core Endpoint Protection pros

Cons

"Being able to filter the events to see those that are related to the actual alert would save time spent by the engineer."

"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."

"Fine-tuning the detection policy requires experience because the policy is very complex in Cortex XDR by Palo Alto Networks, and we get high false positive alerts."

"For Cortex XDR by Palo Alto Networks, if I had to point out improvements, I would say the UI is still somewhat difficult for beginners."

"The dashboard could use some significant improvement, just making it more useful with more information. It has a limited amount of information right now. It is customizable, but I'd love to see a better out-of-box dashboard."

"They've been having some issues with updating their endpoint agents, and it has been quite frustrating."

"There are some false positives. What our guys would have liked is that it would have been easier to manipulate as soon as they found a false positive that they knew was a false positive. How to do so was not obvious. Some people complained about it. The interface, the ESM, is not user-friendly."

"The encryption is not up to the mark."

More Cortex XDR by Palo Alto Networks cons

"The dashboard can be improved."

"The firewall capabilities could benefit from an upgrade since it lacks a high level of granularity and control."

"My advice to others is not to implement this solution. There are better solutions in the market."

"The lack of detecting security threats and high memory usage need to be improved."

"The price of the bandwidth here is very expensive compared to European countries."

"The phishing feature report showed zero results, and the patch management component is one of the two main issues that need improvement."

"We've experienced multiple failures during appliance upgrades, sometimes requiring us to resort to backup."

"The solution must be more user-friendly."

More Bitdefender GravityZone Enterprise Security cons

"There should be a Webroot Business Endpoint Protection mobile app."

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

"The reporting is the weakest part of the Webroot console. Frequently, I export to Excel to massage something into it to pass on to others."

"The only complaint I have with Webroot is its inability to prevent UoD phishing and its inability to check against bots or block anti-attacks. Plus the URL server is in zero-definition."

"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."

"I think the one bad point about this product is that we did not find a way for Webroot to generate reports or schedule automatic reports to be sent to clients."

"We were attacked by CryptoLock. It didn't protect us in the way we needed to and an attack was able to get through their defenses."

"The solution could improve by providing better ransomware protection."

More OpenText Core Endpoint Protection cons

Pricing and Cost Advice

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

"The price of the solution is high for the license and in general."

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

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

"Cortex XDR’s pricing is very reasonable."

"The price of the product is not very economical."
