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.

Auto scanning and enhanced security but re-adding protections need improvement

At that time, we observed certain issues with the product. The functionalities could be improved, such as the isolation feature. If we remove our protection, we cannot easily add it back. If, in our organization, we need to remove a specific system for a particular time, we cannot add it back for security after doing so. This is one thing we have experienced. Scalability is also lacking. If we want to do the same thing repeatedly, there's not much the solution offers; it isn't very strong.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"The normal protection was really effective, and we detected situations that if we didn't have Cortex XDR by Palo Alto Networks, it's highly likely that we would have been affected, but it protected the infrastructure."

"The stability of the solution is very good. We have about 100 users on it right now, and we use it twice a week."

"Its interface and pricing are most valuable. It is better than other vendors in terms of security."

"Cortex XDR is a very capable solution for protecting large networks and a lot of endpoints. It's very useful because the automation is very high, and if you combine it with the features on Palo Alto firewalls, it provides very strong protection."

"Based on my experience, I would recommend Cortex XDR by Palo Alto Networks to other people."

"It is easy to use."

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

"One of the things that I enjoy the most is using policy extensions. It's like having host firewalls to control USB connections. I think it's a wonderful tool to restrict use when connecting to our computers. Another important tool is Home Insights. That is an add-on to the Cortex solution. I like that because we can see all the vulnerabilities in the environment and control what assets are connected to our network."

More Cortex XDR by Palo Alto Networks pros

"The auto-scanning feature is quite beneficial."

"Asset discovery seems to be good."

"The asset management of nodes has been a large help in terms of being able to track applications with more detail and have changes made being monitored into one source."

"It is my "security person" looking at irregularities and letting me know when something has occurred."

"Having everything in a central place has been helpful."

"Reports are customized, so you can present them to executives or engineers."

"AlienVault's reporting is good. I like that vulnerability assessment is part of the solution, and the UI is intuitive. Also, the overhead is low, which is to say we don't need a dedicated SOC team to manage and analyze things constantly. We're a small company that doesn't have those resources."

"It brought our logs into one place for review and set up alarms based on changes we were missing due to lack of having one place for everything to go."

"We are able to get alerts perfectly with FIM and VA features."

More USM Anywhere pros

Cons

"The solution can never really be an on-premises solution based simply on the way it is set up. It needs metadata to run and improve. Having an on-premises solution would cut it off from making improvements."

"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."

"In general, the price could be more competitive."

"The solution could improve by providing better integration with their own products and others."

"In an upcoming release, the solution could improve by proving hard disk encryption. If it could support this it would be a complete solution."

"The solution lags to the real-time scenarios here and there."

"If he is using a smaller company, he can depend on some other tools because Cortex XDR by Palo Alto Networks is a bit expensive."

"Cortex XDR could improve its sales support team, including better commission structures and referral programs."

More Cortex XDR by Palo Alto Networks cons

"Scalability is lacking. If we want to do the same thing repeatedly, there's not much the solution offers; it isn't very strong."

"The functionalities could be improved, such as the isolation feature."

"It was easy on PoC, but when we got to the product it was different story. We had to learn the product again and got feeling that the PoC was a different product."

"Support can be slow at times, but the quality is high. Posted knowledge base articles could use improvement."

"Sometimes the log is unclear, and the report is a bit ambiguous."

"Different functions to customize reports should be added."

"There are scalability issues due to a 60 TB limit, which restricts its use for large customers like banks."

"AlienVault needs to continue to integrate with other third-party technologies that clients want to have monitored."

"As this software is in the cloud, you do not have control on updates and general changes which are happening."

"The GUI needs to improve because it's not user-friendly."

More USM Anywhere cons

Pricing and Cost Advice

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

"It has a higher cost than other solutions, like CrowdStrike or Microsoft’s EDR tools, but it reduces the cost of our operations because it’s a new generation antivirus tool."

"The price of the solution could be reduced. I have customers that have voiced that the solution is good for the value but if I want to sell more of the solution the price reduction would help."

"Its pricing is kind of in line with its competitors and everybody else out there."

"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 pricing seems fair, and I do like the licensing model. You use wherever they are, and it is elastic."

"The cost of Cortex XDR by Palo Alto Networks is $55 to $90 USD per endpoint per month."

"It's way too expensive, but security is expensive. You pay for your licensing, and then you pay for someone to monitor the stuff."

Information not available

"AlienVault is certainly not nearly as expensive as Splunk or QRadar. It's decently priced, but I don't have the exact figure."

"The price point is good."

"The pricing is a good value. The key thing is that for the new product, the licensing of it, is subscription-based and it's based on data. Clients need to be really careful when thinking about that, because odds are they're going to need to put a lot more data into it than what they initially estimate, which is going to drive their subscription costs up."

"Use the AlienVault team. They are helpful and the documentation that they provide is second to none."

"It's very reasonably priced. It was one of the lowest among the ones I looked at. Licensing is pretty flexible. They can do a two-year or a three-year, even a one-year, perhaps."

"QRadar, ArcSight and Splunk are some of the most expensive SIEM products out there in the market and not everyone has the budget to buy them. In such cases, AV USM is a very cost effective alternative."

"They charge a license based on the storage. ATT AlienVault USM is a less expensive solution than IBM QRadar."

"We checked out several competitors. For what it can do and the cost, it was the best option!"
