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.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

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

"It is a simple platform to use."

"The behavior-based detection feature is valuable."

"Automation and playbooks have helped me significantly, as Cortex Xnor's playbooks predefine the workflow of the automation, such as response processes, alert triggering, and enriching the context, efficiently detecting and blocking malicious attacks with firewalls while eliminating workload and speeding responses for next-generation operations."

"Cortex is the best tool for endpoint detection, and I have used it to verify hashes or domains to identify malicious activity, trigger playbooks that automate and gather endpoint logs, block malicious processes, and update incident tickets, showcasing end-to-end processes with automation in investigation and reducing the analysis workflow."

"The one feature of Palo Alto Networks Traps that our organization finds most valuable is the App ID service."

"I have found the solution to be very easy in respect of the integration and configurable."

"We use Cortex XDR by Palo Alto Networks for its ability to detect based on behavior rather than simple virus scan to prevent malicious activities."

More Cortex XDR by Palo Alto Networks pros

"The clients are surprised at the coverage and the peace of mind they get where they don't have to worry about certain things."

"The visibility it gives is excellent."

"The feature that I have found most valuable is that the configuration and the usage of the product are not so complicated."

"It's transparent, so it's not something where every user has to press a button to download or do the thing. It is centralized, in fact. Personally, I use Malwarebytes and other tools, which are fine for home use. Cynet is also relatively silent in terms of operation, except when it's required to act."

"The SOAR function, deception, and forensics are very useful."

"At the end of the day, Cynet got the maximum rating."

"As a reseller, I believe the best functions in Cynet's product are the lightweight agent and good detection performance."

"The dashboard is very beautiful because it provides everything on a centralized console."

More Cynet pros

"There are many features available in this solution, such as asset management."

"The convenience has been great."

"I like Seqrite's web protection features and external device control."

"In case it works, we are looking to use features like USB blocking, file upload alerts, and other antivirus features as well, but this software has to work first."

"The solution is stable."

"The most valuable part of the solution is its ransomware backup feature."

"The solution is centrally managed, easy to configure, and easy to use."

"There are many features available in this solution, such as asset management."

More Seqrite Endpoint Security pros

Cons

"The solution needs better reports. I think they should let the customer go in and customize the reports."

"A little bit more automation would be nice."

"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."

"It is not a suitable solution if you are looking for a single product with multiple features such as DLP, encryption, rollback, etc."

"I would like to see better protection, specifically to protect email applications."

"The GUI could be improved. It's a little bit cumbersome. It could be more user-friendly."

"Currently, if you use Palo Alto endpoint protection as the only solution it's very complicated to remove pre-existing threats."

"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."

More Cortex XDR by Palo Alto Networks cons

"The solution just needs to keep maturing and they need to keep up with the threat landscape to ensure they're protecting clients well as time passes."

"Its dashboard is not so good. On the dashboard, they don't show the count for client endpoints, which is a failure of this product."

"The inability to add contact information inside the Cynet is also an issue because it makes things more complicated. I would like to have a simple feature to enter a contact name and number for the person taking care of that unit or that server."

"The command line interface 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."

"I would like to see more emphasis on building the data lake and storing all endpoint data in the enterprise data lake so that data mining can be performed"

"Its dashboard is not so good. On the dashboard, they don't show the count for client endpoints, which is a failure of this product. This count should be shown on the dashboard. I have 1,000 clients, but I can't see it anywhere on the dashboard."

"Functions-wise, at present the times for events are not a user's local time, but we assume that will be corrected soon."

More Cynet cons

"It should be able to detect and report any ransomware attack but currently, it doesn't detect and it doesn't report any."

"Endpoint Security would be improved by adding DLP."

"The solution could improve by providing better security and a cloud base version."

"User management is not that good currently, and so we have trouble with handling user management."

"Sometimes, small and medium businesses, or even startups with just five, ten, or fifteen systems, are also keen to secure their data. There is a reluctance on the part of the technical team to extend installation support when the opportunity sizes are smaller. Seqrite Endpoint Security has a lot of value. Still, its marketing could be done much better on a larger scale, especially in India, in light of the new DPDP 2023 Act, which the Indian Parliament passed. It would be even more valuable if Seqrite could incorporate features to help companies comply with this law, it would be even more helpful."

"We would like the solution to have integration with other security solutions so that we can have a single base for monitoring all the security incidents and concerns."

"I would like to see Seqrite add a remote profile so we can implement different policies for users connecting to the in-office LAN and those accessing the office network from home or a public internet connection."

More Seqrite Endpoint Security cons
