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 solution is a new generation XDR that has a lot of artificial intelligence modules."

"After installing this solution, it identified, blocked, and provided the complete attack chain, which was very helpful."

"The anti-exploit is impenetrable. We chose Traps because it is the only product that we were not able to get anything past."

"The live terminal is probably the best thing ever. It gives you the access to get straight onto any machine."

"The solution doesn't need a high level of technical training."

"The best feature of Cortex XDR by Palo Alto Networks is that it collects logs from different sections such as the endpoint, the network, and the cloud, making it easy to investigate alerts, collect some of the investigation packages related to the infected machines, and provide live response."

"It integrates well into the environment."

"We can visualize and control the activities in the environment from anywhere."

More Cortex XDR by Palo Alto Networks pros

"The auto-scanning feature is quite beneficial."

"It provides a single pane of glass view, coupled with a whole security ecosystem. The ability to manage everything from a central point, including vulnerability assessments, asset management - including the services provided by the various hosts, NIDS, HIDS, etc. - provides a very efficient way of dealing with things."

"It allows for a lot of out-of-the-box features: vuln scanning, HIDS/HIPS, and IDS."

"It allows you to define what alerts you want to see, or not to see, as well as if you want them grouped, or ungrouped."

"As we have to service several servers, we can manage them in a economical way, which is beneficial to our team and business."

"The best thing about AlienVault USM is it being a “Jack-of-All Trades” solution. It provides SIEM, HIDS/NIDS, FIM, NetFlow, Asset Management, Vulnerability Management, etc., under one USM platform. None of the commercial SIEM vendors like ArcSight, McAfee, etc., can boast of such a diverse feature set."

"The USM is a work horse, no matter what devices or the number of logs we throw at it, the system processes them in real time, correlates the events, and alerts on only events that need human review."

"The solution also provides basic log storage options for periods of 15, 30, and 90 days."

"Using the communication within the security device, it is easier to create plugins."

More USM Anywhere pros

Cons

"We have found that there are times Cortex XDR by Palo Alto Networks does not detect some of the viruses, we have to use another protection solution called Kaspersky."

"Previously, the endpoint would leave the environment, not being on our VPN, essentially unable to interact with the server to upload files. It was unable to retrieve new file verdicts. It was using a thing called "local analysis" to determine if something was a malicious file or not. There was no dynamic analysis."

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

"To jump from the partner to Palo Alto directly was challenging."

"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."

"I don't like that they have different types of licenses. For example, if users select a license, they think they will have all the platforms they need to improve their network or security. But after some time, Palo Alto Networks changed their licensing, and some of the features that, for example, were free at the beginning now have a cost. I think the integration can be improved. For example, a lot of tools are just integrated through APIs."

"It would be good if they could make an exception for applications. Sometimes, it can be a bit of a challenge to make exceptions for certain applications that have been used as rogue."

"Cortex XDR by Palo Alto Networks can improve mobile integration to allow access to the console."

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."

"they seem to have bugs from time to time that go unfixed for a while and that is frustrating. I'm not saying the product needs to be bug-free, but they need to be responsive to bugs."

"Different functions to customize reports should be added."

"AT&T AlienVault USM can improve searchable data. It should be available for more than 90 days. If you need more than 90 days of data, you have to put a request and they give you raw data, which is not easy to search. A good addition would be to allow users to search data older than 90 days."

"The AT&T AlienVault USM is okay, but the relational database is not very good for large amounts of data. For example, many logs cannot be processed. It has been very slow for the queries and some data which are large, it is not very good in this case."

"It would be nice to see some machine learning and monitoring of the configuration in network devices."

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

"The UI and overall processes need a little bit more love. This shows in the error banners that come up when you select certain things. There isn't a day that goes by that the UI doesn't error out and I can't view events for an alarm."

"I feel that some areas of improvement would be vulnerability scanning. We use a separate product that seems to do a much better job."

Pricing and Cost Advice

"This is an expensive solution."

"Every customer has to pay for a license because it doesn't work with what you get from a managed services provider."

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

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

"It has reasonable pricing for the use cases it provides to the company."

"The pricing is a little bit on the expensive side."

"Our customers have expressed that the price is high."

"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."

More Cortex XDR by Palo Alto Networks pricing and cost advice

Information not available

"So far, it has been a good solution for a tight budget."

"The price for this solution is very good, but since the features do not work the price is expensive."

"It allows you to do a lot with a small price tag... The pricing is the best on the market."

"I don't know exactly, but I know it is based on the number of logs and the retention duration, such as 30 days or something like that. So, the smallest package is about 500 a month for 30 days of logs. There is a virtual machine. You need resources for it. It is a log collecting VM. They provide the software, and you just have to load a virtual machine. So, you're going to incur some CPU RAM and storage for wherever this log collecting appliance is running, which typically is in our cloud and on our platform for the customer."

"Do the one month trial and try to work out the kinks during it, as it has free support and service hours."

"The licensing fees are dependent on usage."

"Its price is in the medium to upper range."

"They are a little more expensive than Microsoft."
