Integration of multiple firewalls enables advanced threat detection

The integration of data from firewalls and Active Directory is most valuable. Cybereason XDR facilitates two-way communication, where the firewall sends data to the Cybereason system, and it can communicate with the firewall to stop unwanted communication. Customers can deal with multiple types of firewalls with ease. The behavioral analytics help detect advanced threats when attackers use existing software. The multilayered protection approach, including NGAV, integrates XDR detection with antivirus to assess and counter threats effectively.

"The integration of data from firewalls and Active Directory is most valuable."

"The solution has an investigation feature, which is useful for building storylines."

"FortiXDR is valuable for its integration capabilities with one hundred percent compatibility with other vendors in cloud environments like Google, Oracle, and Microsoft."

"The most valuable feature of FortiXDR is its ability to block clients, providing comprehensive endpoint protection."

"The most valuable feature of FortiXDR is it integrates well with other Fortinet solutions, such as Fortinet firewall, FortiMail, FortiSandbox, Forti Fabric, switches, and access points. Whatever the flow of the traffic comes in or goes out, the entire traffic can be managed and monitored properly."

"Our customers are satisfied with FortiXDR."

"The product is stable enough."

Cons

"The one thing we sometimes have issues with is its integration with other security applications like antiviruses."

"Cybereason's customer support could be better."

"Many of the solutions, such as CrowdStrike have an MDR solution where remediation can be provided by the vendor. For example, if there is any zero data threat found, a new threat that the customer is not able to recognize, fix, or understand what needs to be done this feature has to be added in FortiXDR so that the customer feels comfortable."

"Improvement is needed in the intuitiveness and integration measures of FortiXDR, especially in terms of compatibility."

"They could change their licensing costs to make it more affordable for smaller businesses."

"The pricing of FortiXDR should be improved. It's a point of concern for us."

XDR Defined and Explained
Extended detection and response (XDR) is a natural extension of the endpoint detection and response (EDR) concept, in which behaviors that occur after threat prevention controls act are further inspected for potentially malicious, suspicious, or risky activity that warrant mitigation. The difference is simply the location (endpoint or beyond) where the behaviors occur.
