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.

A way for users to manage their credentials on the go using a stable, and scalable app
I give the solution an eight out of ten. It's hard to comment on the number of users because the feature is completely for corporate employees who have Blackberry devices, so it's hard to track how many users there are. I advise making your decision to use the solution based on the usage in the company or the demand of the business, which you are running based on the demand.

Provides strong threat detection and response through behavior analytics and network isolation
I have found the most valuable features of Kaspersky Endpoint Detection and Response Expert to be its ability to tackle the biggest challenges customers face when they have to mitigate any kind of a malware, ransomware attack, or online theft scenarios. The solution utilizes its HIPS, which is the host intrusion prevention system, behavior analytics system, and device control mechanism, making the antivirus capabilities of EDR quite strong. It is able to detect zero-day threats as well as historical or legacy malware, providing protection against current threats in the market and legacy malware. My opinion on the advanced threat detection algorithms in Kaspersky Endpoint Detection and Response Expert is that the ATP functionality is quite strong because it utilizes the behavioral analytics engine in the backend, which employs machine learning mechanisms to identify any kind of vulnerability or exploit running on the operating system level and the network level. If an attack is about to happen on the endpoint, it is able to protect over the network as well and checks for any illegitimate encryption activities. The machine learning capability within Kaspersky Endpoint Detection and Response Expert has contributed to improving detection accuracy and reducing false positives in my environment by helping me identify malicious activity and differentiate between any malicious activity on the operating system level and on the network level. I have seen customers with in-house developed applications that have no public signatures available. Once I whitelist a particular application, it intelligently whitelists not only the executable but also all the dependent services required to run that application. Furthermore, Kaspersky Endpoint Detection and Response Expert has successfully blocked network-level attacks on the endpoint. For example, during a recent DoS attack aimed at choking the entire network, Kaspersky detected the attack, isolated the device in a sandbox network, and alerted my SOC team via email for corrective action, thereby proactively helping me detect and protect devices from malicious attacks.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"We switched because there were a lot of added features with Palo Alto that Check Point didn't have, and it was an upgrade for us."
"The anti-exploit is impenetrable. We chose Traps because it is the only product that we were not able to get anything past."
"My advice for others looking into using Cortex is that it is very easy to use and very useful for the customer environment, whether it's a public or private one."
"It detected stuff that other things wouldn't detect."
"The most valuable for us is the correlation feature."
"Technical support is the best in class, in my opinion, because they have invested heavily in research and development."
"Cortex XDR by Palo Alto Networks is specifically designed to prevent zero-day attacks and is part of an ecosystem of Palo Alto, providing customers with a long-term vision to modify and redesign how security is applied in their company."
"I have found the solution to be very easy in respect of the integration and configurable."
"The solution is very easy to set up."
"The resetting option and creating a password is a very useful on-the-go feature, which gives a user a good experience, obviously a hassle-free experience."
"The mail is without a doubt the most valuable."
"Their technical support is actually quite good."
"The solution provides high-end security that is critical for financial institutions and bankers."
"It's scalable enough for us."
"The features I have found most valuable in Kaspersky Endpoint Detection and Response Expert are that it is the first line of defense for my organization, protects every single file from outbound traffic, checks every mail and file through various methods like FTP and cloud, avoids attacks, and provides dashboards to my SOC team for early alerts."
"Kaspersky is viable with ADR."
"Provides web and DNS protection over https."
"Encryption is the most valuable feature. It creates an encryption tunnel from your location to the delivery address."
"It is easy to manage."
"Has great behavior detection and a very good firmware scanner."
 

Cons

"Cortex XDR could be improved with more GUI features."
"A better pricing plan would make this product more competitive."
"There are some false positives."
"It takes time to scan the servers and devices."
"A potential area of improvement for Cortex XDR by Palo Alto Networks is the cost."
"Managing the product should be easier."
"It should support more mobile operating systems. That is one of the cons of their infrastructure right now."
"The negative aspect I see is the economic model used by Palo Alto."
"The solution can be improved by adding more features in which the content could be synced."
"The user interface could be improved. It was clunky at times."
"I would like better integration with other products."
"There is a problem with the solution, it came from Russia and we are looking for a replacement."
"Installing Kaspersky is complex. It requires more work from system admins and takes almost one week to deploy, including integration and mapping with other solutions. You also have to configure Kaspersky EDR sandboxing then set up permissions for various teams and customers."
"The solution could always be more secure."
"Device control is lacking in EDR."
"If a customer wants to use Kaspersky on-prem, they'll need to spend a lot on the hardware. Their server must be strong because EDR is a heavy product. You need excellent hardware to run it. It might make sense to deploy the solution in the cloud. If they add features, it will only make the product heavier and increase the hardware costs."
"Kaspersky Endpoint Detection and Response could improve some issues and add new security files."
"Could include some additional protection."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"It's about $55 per license on a yearly basis."
"I don't like that they have different types of licenses."
"I don't have any issues with the pricing. We are satisfied with the price."
"The pricing is a little high. It is per user per year."
"The price of the product is not very economical."
"I am using the Community edition."
"Licensing for Palo Alto Networks Cortex XDR can be costly, especially when it comes to a hundred users. A license is required for each user, and the subscription must be renewed on a yearly basis."
"I did PoCs on products called Cylance and CrowdStrike. Although, I consider these products and they were also good, when it come to cost and budgetary factors, Traps has been proven to be better than the other two products. It is quite cost-effective and delivers all the entire solution which we require."
"I am not able to remember the amount, but users have to subscribe for a certain amount, so once they subscribe, the amount gets sent."
"We had a licensing package of $500,000 for three years."
"The solution isn't the cheapest considering what you get. I would rate the pricing as seven out of ten."
"The price of Kaspersky Endpoint Detection and Response is in the middle range compared to competitors. The pricing model is based on the users using the solutions. The cost for us is approximately 2200 Algerian dinars. The price of the solution could be reduced."
"The solution is expensive in comparison to CheckPoint and Fortinet."
"If one is cheap, ten is expensive, I rate the product’s price as a seven out of ten, especially if I compare it with CrowdStrike."
"Pricing for Kaspersky Endpoint Detection and Response is so-so when you compare it with its competitors. Its pricing isn't cheap nor expensive."
"We have been satisfied with the license of the solution."
"Endpoint's pricing is good, especially compared to expensive solutions like Sophos."
"The license for EDR costs about 1,000 pesos per user. I would rate the pricing as four out of five."
