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.

Reliable and good support but can be expensive

I have no real complaints about the solution. Threat detection could be better. They need to enhance their threat intelligence feeds. We would like to have more IOCs or more trade intelligence to not only rely on the intelligence of the engineer in charge but to have some threat intelligence and some seeds of IOCs and to have the host have some artificial intelligence to reduce the number of false positives. I don't see this solution being very scalable. The solution is pricey.

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 the core of the security infrastructure in the environment."

"It's a perfect solution. It integrates well into the environment."

"It has absolutely improved the way our organization functions, we are more secure, it is giving us more peace of mind, and it has found malicious activity happening on our endpoints that probably would not have been detected if we didn't have it."

"It can automatically correlate events and logs, which is very helpful for an IT administrator. It can correlate different kinds of malware activities over a network, agent, or host system. You do not need to do it manually. It is a good feature. It is also a user-friendly solution. We have deployed it on the cloud because our space does not provide any flexibility for on-premises deployment, but Palo Alto has added some flexibility to install it on-premises. It must be like the same Cortex XDR agent for all the VPN services, web filtering services, and everything else."

"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."

"Stability is a primary factor, and then there's the ease of distribution and policy management."

"The protection offered by this product is good, as is the endpoint reporting."

"They did what they said, and this solution could apply to any scenario."

More Cortex XDR by Palo Alto Networks pros

"Their technical support is actually quite good."

"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."

"We like the solution doesn't have to be managed by an IT department; it's easy to use and you can still check the machine without the IT department being involved."

"The solution is stable."

"NetWitness Endpoint has enabled us to detect attacks that bypass the first stage of cybersecurity, like zero-day and advanced attacks."

"We've contacted technical support several times. They've been very good. They have been able to help us resolve our issues."

"It is very easy to use, and its usability is great. The use cases are also very easy. The visualizations of the use cases are magnificent. You cannot find this in any other solution. From my point of view, it is great."

"RSA NetWitness does market analysis in a more granular form. It gives you full visibility."

"We use it for IT security purposes; this is our central log management solution, so we incorporate all of our servers and PCs into this software and can monitor the logs from there."

"The most valuable feature of RSA NetWitness Network is the single unified dashboard from which you can manage all the different products of RSA. Additionally, the integration with native applications is good."

More NetWitness NDR pros

Cons

"It would be better if they could educate the customers more. Some sort of seminars and roadshows will help educate the customers and show what the product can do. The price could be better. It would also help if they had a team for deployment and support."

"Basically, they don't provide customer support tools just to investigate the logs."

"It is not very strong in terms of endpoint management. It should have additional features like DLP, encryption, or advanced device control."

"The only issues that we have are, one the cost, two the dashboard is not very intuitive, even though you can drill down within the dashboard, we usually have to gather information from other sources to determine locations and if its a false positive."

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

"They are charging for Network Traffic Analyzer (NTA) services, so if the per GB data could be provided at a certain level free of cost or at the same cost which the customer is taking for the entire bundle, that would be better."

"It is an enterprise-level solution. Its price could be less expensive."

"It is not easy to sell Cortex XDR, not because it isn't a good tool."

More Cortex XDR by Palo Alto Networks cons

"The user interface could be improved. It was clunky at times."

"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."

"The solution can be improved by adding more features in which the content could be synced."

"I don't see this solution being very scalable."

"The initial setup requires a high level of skill, then the setup is good and smooth."

"Its price could be improved. It is an expensive product. Its training is also too expensive. It would be great if they can have a better pricing scheme for the training."

"RSA NetWitness Endpoint is a scalable solution. However, the problem which we normally face is in terms of the migration of the solution."

"The problem with this product is that it's a bit slow."

"The initial setup requires a high level of skill."

"The integration of the solution needs to be improved. The dashboard needs lots of updates as well. In the next release, we would like to see advanced fraud detection features."

"The threat intelligence could improve in RSA NetWitness Endpoint."

More NetWitness NDR cons

Pricing and Cost Advice

"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."

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

"The pricing is okay, although direct support can be expensive."

"Traps pays for itself within the first 16 months of a three-year subscription. This is attributed to OPEX savings, as security teams spent less time trying to identify and isolate malware for analysis as a result of a reduction in malware incidents, false positives, and breach avoidance."

"Cortex XDR is a costly solution."

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

"Cortex XDR by Palo Alto Networks is an expensive solution."

"We pay about $50,000 USD per year for a bundle that includes Cortex XDR."

More Cortex XDR by Palo Alto Networks pricing and cost advice

"We had a licensing package of $500,000 for three years."

"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."

"The price of the solution depends on the environment. If the environment is large then it will cost more. However, the larger the environment with more endpoints, you will receive an increased discount. If the environment is very small, then you might think it is expensive. It is always better to buy in bulk to receive a discount. The minimum number of assets is usually 500, with discounts on 1000 and 2000."

"It is highly scalable. It can be bought based on your requirements."

"NetWitness Endpoint is less costly than its competitors, but it offers fewer features."

"It is an expensive product."

"The cost depends on the number of endpoints that you want to monitor, but it is not expensive."

"I do not have any opinion on the pricing or licensing of the product."

"With RSA, there is flexibility in choosing the service, products, and the range that meets your requirement, as well as they are flexible in terms of pricing."

"We are on a three-year contract to use RSA NetWitness Network."
