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.

Dashboard offers comprehensive views with efficient system updates and integration
There is one significant issue with WithSecure Elements Endpoint Detection and Response. For computers with limited RAM, such as 16 gigabytes, the software is not optimal as it requires between four to six gigabytes of RAM to run. I don't use the Threat Intelligence feature from WithSecure Elements Endpoint Detection and Response as it requires extra activation, which I have not implemented.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"The dashboard is customizable."
"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."
"It detected stuff that other things wouldn't detect."
"I can highlight that we have not faced any security incidents with Cortex XDR by Palo Alto Networks, and even though our environment is quite dynamic, we have not faced any security incident with Cortex XDR by Palo Alto Networks until now."
"Being a cloud solution it is very flexible in serving internal and external connections and a broad range of devices."
"It is a simple platform to use."
"The multi-layered approach to the product gives you confidence that it will stop exploits, ransomware, worms, or viruses from compromising endpoints, essentially providing peace of mind."
"Palo Alto is the best security solution in the market."
"Their technical support is actually quite good."
"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."
"The solution is very easy to set up."
"We've been very pleased with its capabilities."
"The only issue that we have today is with false positives. We have too many false positives with the solution."

Cons

"The solution should enhance the ADR and reporting."

"The negative aspect I see is the economic model used by Palo Alto."
"The downside to the solution is that there are a large number of false positives."
"The GUI could be improved."
"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."
"The price could be a little lower."
"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 monthly reporting feature of WithSecure can be improved."
