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.

Protects personal devices effectively and prevents access to fraudulent websites

The only thing that it does not include, which I would like to see in it, is the VPN. If VPN was included in Bitdefender Total Security, that would be a really valuable feature to add to the product. The VPN is handy, but to pay quite a lot more on top is costly. VPN is becoming a lot more commonplace and needed, and some competitors are now including it as part of their offering. I have no intention of moving away from Bitdefender Total Security, but I just think that could be quite a valuable addition to have as part of the product.

Reduces the time to detect and respond with moderate pricing

The centralized control feature is excellent. It provides a user-friendly interface for managing items and active endpoints, making it easy for central managers to control the network. I recommend it, but we need some documentation or a presentation from Seqrite. Overall, I rate the solution an eight out of ten.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"Palo Alto is one of the tech vendors that always provides top-of-the-line products."

"One thing that I like about Cortex XDR is its ability to detect all the suspicious or malicious binaries, and it can integrate with Palo Alto Firewall."

"Monitoring is most valuable."

"The interface is easy to use and it is more up to date than our previous solution."

"Automation and playbooks have helped me significantly, as Cortex Xnor's playbooks predefine the workflow of the automation, such as response processes, alert triggering, and enriching the context, efficiently detecting and blocking malicious attacks with firewalls while eliminating workload and speeding responses for next-generation operations."

"They have a new GUI which is just fantastic."

"The product has an intuitive dashboard."

"They did what they said. This solution could apply to any scenario."

More Cortex XDR by Palo Alto Networks pros

"It is quite stable. It handles updates and patches nicely."

"It enhances our cybersecurity measures, especially beneficial for entrepreneurs."

"Bitdefender Total Security is a cloud-based solution with lower costs. We haven't encountered any security issues since using the product."

"The dashboard and granular control features are great."

"I highly recommend Bitdefender Total Security for other users; in independent tests, it has always performed the highest out of any of the endpoint solutions."

"I value Bitdefender Total Security for its effectiveness in scanning even the latest threats, and protecting my system from potential malware."

"The tool blocks malicious downloads. Its most valuable feature is the Autopilot mode."

"Bitdefender Total Security offers a wide range of valuable features that enhance its usability and effectiveness."

More Bitdefender Total Security pros

"Seqrite has significantly reduced the time it takes to detect and respond."

"The solution installs very easily."

Cons

"Currently, if you use Palo Alto endpoint protection as the only solution it's very complicated to remove pre-existing threats."

"I recommend adding a data loss prevention (DLP) solution to Cortex XDR by Palo Alto Networks. The inclusion of this feature would allow the application of DLP policies alongside antivirus policies via a single agent and console, making it more competitive as other OEMs often offer DLP solutions as part of their antivirus products."

"The technical support is not very good. I find the process difficult."

"The solution eats memory of the computer, unlike anything I've ever seen."

"I have run into some detection issues with Cortex XDR. It needs to be better at detection of internal attacks."

"A little bit more automation would be nice."

"They have the worst support, as a company, that I have ever worked with, as they are difficult to get a hold of and keep on the phone. They don't know what they are talking about when you get them on the phone. They don't like to respond to messages when you send them to them. They like to "research problems" for weeks on end, then pass you off to somebody else."

"The downside to the solution is that there are a large number of false positives."

More Cortex XDR by Palo Alto Networks cons

"Sometimes, it blocks some networks that we are using."

"I would like to see some flexibility in the ransomware limitations."

"The location-tracking feature for finding phones could be improved, as well as the remote wipe functionality."

"Bitdefender Total Security should improve its resource usage. It should also work on cloud storage."

"When it comes to areas for enhancement, I would suggest focusing on advanced threat detection to address evolving malware."

"Bitdefender Total Security needs to improve its security features."

"The only thing that it does not include, which I would like to see in it, is the VPN."

"The stability could be improved."

More Bitdefender Total Security cons

"The solution should focus on security, documentation, and simplicity for beginners."

"The security is too week and needs improvement."

Pricing and Cost Advice

"It is "expensive" and flexible."

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

"The return on investment is from the user side because we have seen the performance of it increase the delivery time of the product if we are using too many web-based and on-premise applications. In indirect ways, we saw the return of investment in terms of performance and user satisfaction increase."

"It has reasonable pricing for the use cases it provides to the company."

"Cortex XDR’s pricing is very reasonable."

"This is an expensive solution."

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

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

More Cortex XDR by Palo Alto Networks pricing and cost advice

"The product is not expensive."

"The pricing is quite reasonable. I don't find it expensive."

"It falls in the middle range in terms of pricing—it's neither very cheap nor overly expensive."

"The tool's pricing is high compared to other products."
