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.

Has improved threat detection and streamlined incident analysis through centralized control and AI-driven insights
People are looking for Cynet because it has next-generation threat protection that detects zero-day threats. It has UEBA (user entity behavior analysis), threat hunting features, and storage device control where we can create profiles and block unauthorized USB storage devices. We can also create threat protection policies to detect malware, ransomware, and many other threats. The most valuable feature is the UBA (User behavior analysis). It has integration with SIEM solutions, allowing us to share our logs to third-party SIEM servers. Cynet has AI integration which showcases complete forensic data about threats, making it very easy to understand what happened with the system and what type of incident was detected. Autonomous breach protection is a feature of Cynet which can detect and mitigate known and unknown threats based on signatures. If there are any signature-less files, malware, or ransomware, it will detect them based on autonomous breach protection capabilities. The centralized management console provides a dashboard where we can see four types of attack vectors and incident counts in real-time. It continuously scans the radar and shows open alerts related to files, hosts, users, or networks. We can easily export these alerts and send reports via email.

Great for PCI compliance but issues with stability and large amounts of data
I mainly use this solution to meet PCI compliance The automation of compliance reports and the correlation of the log have been major improvements.  The most valuable feature is the predefined reports for PCI compliance. The correlation suite needs to be improved. I also think they need to…

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"Its interface and pricing are most valuable, and it is better than other vendors in terms of security."
"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."
"We've had a significant increase in blocking with a decrease in false positives, because it's looking at how the files work, not just a list of files that it's been told to look for."
"The level of security I get for my endpoints and servers is extremely valuable."
"Based on my experience, I would recommend Cortex XDR by Palo Alto Networks to other people."
"It is easy to use."
"Cortex XDR by Palo Alto Networks saves time in various ways, although the user interface is fairly standard."
"We switched because there were a lot of added features with Palo Alto that Check Point didn't have, and it was an upgrade for us."
"It is quite stable. I would rate the stability of the solution a nine out of ten."
"This is one of the best technologies that we have had available in many years and it is a solution that I recommend."
"It is a very stable solution...It is a very scalable solution...The initial setup of Cynet was easy."
"The dashboard is very beautiful because it provides everything on a centralized console."
"The initial setup is very fast and very easy."
"We have definitely seen an ROI because we have very sensitive information, and we never had any viruses."
"The product did not utilize much memory or resources from the background, which was a significant advantage."
"I like the Cynet Correlator™ feature."
"The automation of compliance reports and the correlation of the log have been major improvements."
"The most valuable feature is the predefined reports for PCI compliance."
"The Change Tracker tool is very good and will reduce your overall workload."
"Customer Service: The service we've seen from NNT to date has been extraordinarily good."
"This is a very easy-to-use interface with a quick ramp-up time."
"File integrity monitoring is a very important function."
"If you want to deploy a SIEM and you want it to be simple, and not deal with much maintenance or help from the OEM, then I would say that NNT is the one."
"The FIM features in the Change Tracker and the Log Tracker are the most valuable."
 

Cons

"It takes time to scan the servers and devices."
"Cortex XDR should have a lightweight agent, and the agent size should not be heavy."
"Impact on system performance is horrible, adding a lot of delays for users."
"Cortex XDR could improve its sales support team, including better commission structures and referral programs."
"It'll help if customization was easier."
"A potential area of improvement for Cortex XDR by Palo Alto Networks is the cost."
"The dashboard is the area that needs to improve so that we can have the ability to drill down without having to go elsewhere to verify results."
"When it comes to core analysis, and security analysis, Cortex needs to provide more information."
"I think the technical support could be better. When I contacted them, I had to wait a week before getting an answer."
"There is room for improvement in terms of support. The support should be faster to respond."
"An administration feature will be useful for Cynet."
"There have to be more integrations with other firewalls and domain controllers of the network."
"The reporting is a little weak and could be improved."
"Management of the console could be simplified and made more user-friendly because right now it's not very easy to use."
"One problem is that Linux servers are not supported."
"Automation could be improved, and orchestration could be added to the features."
"It is able to identify the vulnerability, however, they need an option to auto-mitigate."
"Only one minor deployment issue came up and it was resolved quickly. No other areas of improvement come to mind yet."
"I would like to see the integration of AI technology, so rather than manually monitoring the logs, the tool will understand it and take care of it."
"The correlation suite needs to be improved."
"For the NNT Log Tracker and Change Tracker, they have to make their knowledge base available online because there is very little information available on the internet."
"There are some issues with the stability - the correlation engine has failed multiple times, and the reports sometimes take too long, so we have to involve the tech team to get them."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"I did PoCs on products called Cylance and CrowdStrike. Although, I consider these products and they were also good, when it come to cost and budgetary factors, Traps has been proven to be better than the other two products. It is quite cost-effective and delivers all the entire solution which we require."
"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."
"When we first bought it, it was a bit expensive, but it was worth it. The licensing was straightforward."
"The price of the solution is high for the license and in general."
"I don't have any issues with the pricing. We are satisfied with the price."
"We didn't have to pay any additional fee for the cloud instance. It just came with the renewal, which was nice."
"I don't recall what the cost was, but it wasn't really that expensive."
"Very costly product."
"There is an extra cost if you want the support of Cynet."
"The licensing for Cynet is yearly. The solution pricing depends on the customer, but it is not very expensive."
"The price is very competitive."
"it's not cheap, but I would rate it a three out of ten. If one is cheap and ten is expensive."
"This solution is expensive. I would rate the price as a three out of five when compared to similar products."
"The price should not be less than $100 which is quite reasonable for this solution because you are getting multiple components."
"Cynet is cheaper than other solutions in the market."
"Cynet has a pay-as-you-go pricing model."
"We have selected a perpetual license along with support."
"Consider both their on-premises solution and their hosted solution. Both are reasonably priced."
"NNT's pricing is moderate - I would rate their pricing two-and-a-half out of ten."
