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.

Business Development Manager for Cybereason at Bechtle

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.

Vaibhav Mahendra Kolhe

Soc Analyst at Softcell Technologies Limited

Automation has reduced alerts and freed the soc team to focus on faster incident response

Regarding mean time to respond, the improvements I see with SentinelOne Singularity Complete are that genuine files also get alerts. We are getting false positives, but we are also getting genuine true positive alerts. The improvement will be deep visibility because as I am using Splunk as a SIEM, I compare deep visibility with Splunk, but deep visibility has limited access with only a 14-day policy to retain logs. The improvement will be in overall policy management. The third point will be the complexity of policies. If we want some endpoints to use only USB or if we need to block USB on some points, the policy management is very complex. The fourth point will be that Mac OS and Linux don't have the rollback policy; that policy is only for Windows. These four points are improvements if SentinelOne Singularity Complete can address them. Data privacy and security when utilizing Purple AI is crucial for SentinelOne Singularity Complete, and SentinelOne Singularity Complete lacks in data security. Data security is very important in this world. In my organization, if we deploy SentinelOne Singularity Complete and we have integrated all the firewalls, all devices, and AWS devices to SentinelOne Singularity Complete, logs will be forwarded to SentinelOne Singularity Complete through SentinelOne Singularity Complete. However, SentinelOne Singularity Complete doesn't have data security solutions such as Forcepoint DLP or 48 layer; SentinelOne Singularity Complete doesn't have that DLP solution. From the data security point of view, SentinelOne Singularity Complete is not good.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"We use it for malicious connections from malicious websites, to identify payloads that might be inside the traffic, to identify malicious processes or bugs that are running on the network, and any activities that tend to lead to data infiltration."

"The most valuable features of this product are the management capabilities, which allow an IT organization to get quite a good picture of attempted cyber attacks, and its out-of-the-box investigation capabilities."

"The ability to kind of stitch everything together and see the actual complete picture is very useful. I guess you'd call it a playbook. Some people call it the forensics analysis of what was happening on particular endpoints when they detected some malicious behavior, and what transpired before that to cause that. It is also very user friendly. The way they have done everything and integrated all the solutions that they've purchased over the years to make it a very seamless, effective product is very good. One thing about Palo Alto is that they take the products or services that they purchase and make them seamless for the end user as compared to some companies that purchase other companies and then just kind of have their products off to the side or keep different interfaces. Palo Alto doesn't do that."

"The scalability of Cortex XDR by Palo Alto Networks is very good."

"The most valuable feature is that you can select remote access of any machine for sandboxing."

"When the pandemic started, Palo Alto came up with many solutions, which helped with the quick shift from on-premises to the cloud."

"The positive impacts I see from Cortex XDR by Palo Alto Networks include a complete 360-degree view of our security posture altogether, being a uniform platform where we are ingesting logs from multiple resources."

"The user interface of the solution is sophisticated and straightforward."

More Cortex XDR by Palo Alto Networks pros

"Cybereason XDR's most useful feature is the investigation."

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

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

"We can see the difference between traditional antivirus and what we can do with SentinelOne; even if the price is a little bit more, we can use EDR, stop network activity, do whatever we need on the endpoint from the security engineer side, and we can see that it's at a completely different level."

"It is a good product, and it fits the requirements of most of the clients."

"During the time of attacks, if there is any data loss, we were able to easily roll back those attacks and retrieve that data for the client with a single click."

"It gives you good visibility of any threats or vulnerabilities that you might have on your network."

"Tracking down which devices don't currently have SentinelOne on them is the most valuable feature of the product."

"SentinelOne has provided amazing security; we were getting new cryptolocker variant infections several times per month and the month following our SentinelOne rollout, the numbers dropped to zero, and we have not had a single infection since."

"The most valuable features are forensic investigation and ransomware prevention."

"It seamlessly integrates with other solutions, providing a high level of compatibility and effectiveness."

More SentinelOne Singularity Endpoint pros

Cons

"Being able to filter the events to see those that are related to the actual alert would save time spent by the engineer."

"There's room for improvement with Mac device installations, which can be challenging."

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

"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."

"The MAC agent is not as robust feature-wise as the PC version."

"Technology evolves every day, so it would be nice if it gets more secure. It can also have more integration with other platforms."

"The deployment is pretty hard."

"Traps doesn't work with McAfee. You need to remove McAfee to install Traps. This is very common, and its nothing that should be an issue. Some antivirus engines recognize Traps as an threat component, so maybe they need to shake hands somewhere."

More Cortex XDR by Palo Alto Networks cons

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

"Customer service is rated as a five out of ten. When they work and reach the right level, they are helpful, but getting to the right person can be time-consuming."

"Cybereason's customer support could be better."

"There could be more integrations with other data sources like NDR systems."

"I would like to have firewall functionality within SentinelOne Singularity Complete."

"Everything is now offered as a service, so the console and the licensing model can be improved to make things easier, especially when updating new versions of the software."

"I believe that CAM and Clearwater are superior to Singularity Platform."

"Sometimes it causes a blue screen and causes the device to crash. It causes servers or computers to crash."

"Deployment strategy for large organizations that do not use active directory (AD)."

"SentinelOne makes it more difficult to define users. It is more granular than CrowdStrike, but it is not preferred because you have to check hundreds of roles."

"Their documentation could afford to be a little bit better communicated. A lot of times we have to look at things in the knowledge base, and much of that could be communicated better, but that would probably be the only thing that needs to be improved."

"SentinelOne Singularity Complete should focus on analytical data. Backend aggregation can make things faster in the front end."

More SentinelOne Singularity Endpoint cons

Pricing and Cost Advice

"The price is on the higher side, but it's okay."

"It has a yearly renewal."

"The cost depends on your chosen license type, like Pro or other licenses."

"The pricing is a little high. It is per user per year."

"The solution has one subscription for endpoint protection and one subscription for detection and response. The two licenses combined give you the BRO version."

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

"I feel it is fairly priced."

"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."

More Cortex XDR by Palo Alto Networks pricing and cost advice

"The solution is cheaper than Microsoft Defender. It has a subscription and no standard license."

"The pricing for SentinelOne Singularity Complete is competitive."

"The pricing was very similar in terms of its competitors, but I believe SentinelOne's capability and willingness to attract new business allowed us to save some extra money."

"Just buy the Capture Client and buy the installer itself in a license of 100,000, or whatever is needed. You don't need to invest in any management tools because they are already installed, and maintenance from the client will keep everything up and running."

"This solution is less expensive than its competitors."

"The license is per user."

"SentinelOne Singularity Complete is expensive compared to Microsoft but not Sophos."

"It is expensive. There is no doubt about it. If one of the functions does not work, it becomes very difficult for any CIO to justify the cost."

"We are on a subscription model by choice. Therefore, we are paying a premium for the flexibility. We would have huge cost savings if we committed to a three-year buy-in. So, it's more expensive than the other solutions that we were looking at, but we have the flexibility of a subscription model. I think the pricing is fair. For example, if we had a three-year tie-in SentinelOne versus Cylance or one of the others, there is not that much difference in pricing. There might be a few euro or dollars here and there, but it's negligible."
