Comprehensive security features with integral network communication view
Real-time monitoring and proactive threat prevention offered by Palo Alto Industrial OT Security is a key feature of the product, which is distinctive since many other security solutions for industrial plant environments are basically able to detect - not protect. They need to be integrated with other security components, making the deployment more complex as more products and solutions need to be integrated. In Palo Alto, we have a single device that does everything. These features contribute to maintaining oversight over my Industrial networks or my customers' networks, and it's very important. It is a way to detect any change in the field, even if changes are made outside the proper control processes. The capability of Palo Alto Industrial OT Security to map network flows and understand asset interdependencies is especially important in complex environments. In smaller environments, which are the most common in my country, the industrial plants usually change very slowly, so this kind of discovery feature is interesting at the beginning but not critical after the first deployments. The positive impact of Palo Alto Industrial OT Security on my organization brings benefits such as a constant view of the intercommunication and connection between different areas of the networks.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"The solution's asset management is really great compared to Dragos or Nozomi."
"Customer service is number one and the best."
"I like how the tool does passive and active discovery and threat detection and shows risks, recommendations, and vulnerabilities. It gives risk scores and gathers everything in one place - IP, device name, etc. We can integrate it with other tools for overall network mapping. It's useful for audits, compliance, and monitoring of all devices in the industry. It provides both monitoring and control. We also have SRA for incident response, which lets us search all alerts if we deploy the Claroty Platform."
"Claroty identifies all vulnerabilities available in our environment."
"The main advantage of Claroty, when compared to its competitors, is integrated secure remote access."
"Claroty assigns a score based on how well you are doing in the course. If you skip a video, your score decreases, making it essential to watch the content attentively."
"Their SRA solution, the Secure Remote Access solution, is very useful for industrial environments."
"The solution's most valuable feature is the map, which shows everything that is connected and communicates with each other."
More Claroty Platform pros
"Real-time monitoring and proactive threat prevention offered by Palo Alto Industrial OT Security is a key feature of the product, which is distinctive because many other security solutions for industrial plant environments are basically able to detect but not protect."
 

Cons

"The product could be improved in terms of user interface design."
"Claroty Platform could improve the pricing to get more acceptability in the market."
"We face issues in the alert investigation area because it does not properly give the alert communication patterns."
"I've reported four bugs and three feature requests so far. The main area of focus should be on how attacks are detected. The attack vector information needs to be more detailed. For example, it's not enough to state that an SMB v1 version open can lead to a WannaCry attack. A more detailed explanation should help clients understand the various ways an attack could occur."
"Claroty Platform only gives the vulnerabilities based on the make and model of the devices, so it doesn't provide any resolution or any detailed explanation of how one can resolve such issues."
"The Claroty Platform becomes too noisy when it gives numerous CVEs related to vendor match. Sometimes, these CVEs are not actually related to the device in the firmware at the site."
"There should be AI security solutions implemented."
"Introducing an AI chatbot to assist you when you have doubts could be beneficial."
More Claroty Platform cons
"The area for improvement in Palo Alto Industrial OT Security is the coverage of the different types of devices that can be connected, which is a common complaint or request from the end user because everyone has something that is different from the others."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"It's a bit expensive compared to other solutions."
"The licensing for physical devices is cheap, but the software version is expensive. The software version costs around 26-28 dollars. I was surprised and even double-checked. It was shocking."
"The tool is quite expensive."
