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

"It has pretty much everything we need and works well within the Palo Alto ecosystem."

"The most valuable aspect of Cortex XDR by Palo Alto Networks for me is its integration with AI detection, where we get to know the behavioral detection based on users, traffic patterns, and different services that we consume."

"Cortex XDR is stable, offering high quality and reliable performance."

"The protection offered by this product is good, as is the endpoint reporting."

"There has been a significant reduction of approximately 70% to 80% in our internal MTTR and MTTD metrics, now around five to eight minutes whereas previously it was hours, which has helped tremendously."

"The behavior-based detection feature is valuable."

"Has great threat detection capabilities."

"It'll not slow down your system when compared to others."

More Cortex XDR by Palo Alto Networks pros

"We are very satisfied with the level of performance we get."

"The product is very easy to use. Customers really appreciate that."

"The EDR, as well as the XDR features, are very valuable."

"A reliable security system that automatically quarantines anything suspicious."

"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."

"For overall satisfaction, I rate Cynet between nine to ten out of ten, and I wholeheartedly recommend it to other users."

"The feature I find most valuable, is the reality graphical user interface."

"Advanced detection and protection against ransomware paired with SOC monitoring are the most valuable features. They have 24/7 SOC monitoring and file activity. It is a very robust tool."

More Cynet pros

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

"The setup process was easy for our remote clients and us as well."

"Seqrite Endpoint Security provides external protection in terms of hard drives."

"The only thing that I have found useful is that I have an overview of my systems in the networks."

"The solution's current features include antivirus, web filtering, file activity monitoring, PAM, firewall, IDS/IPS, and DLP. Though I'm not familiar with the whole solution, it is good."

"Endpoint Security's best features are inventory, asset management, and quick scanning."

"Seqrite Endpoint Security is a good solution."

"The solution is stable."

More Seqrite Endpoint Security pros

Cons

"It is not very strong in terms of endpoint management. It should have additional features like DLP, encryption, or advanced device control. Currently, Cortex is good in terms of the security of the endpoints, but it is not as good as other vendors in terms of the management of the endpoint."

"Managing the product should be easier."

"Cortex XDR could be improved with more GUI features."

"Based on our experience so far, its implementation is quite complex."

"Cortex XDR should have a lightweight agent, and the agent size should not be heavy."

"A little bit more automation would be nice."

"The technical support is not very good. I find the process difficult."

"The deployment is pretty hard."

More Cortex XDR by Palo Alto Networks cons

"They have automated response capability, and they're moving more and more into SOAR capability. They have built-in deception technology with host-file users, phantoms, etc. We used to call them honeypots. So, they're on target. They're doing a really good job, and they should continue to improve with SOAR."

"One thing to note is that I highly recommend adding a deep learning-based prevention environment as an additional layer to Cynet. However, I always advise my customers to start with Cynet or XDR, for example, and then focus on the people, technology, and processes involved. This is the best approach to ensure that you are not breached with ransomware. While Cynet can prevent most attacks, there have been cases where ransomware has been quicker than Cynet's detection capabilities. In these situations, an additional tool is necessary to ensure complete protection, and that is what I sell as well."

"One client said that they faced an issue with Cynet's vulnerability assessment feature."

"Increased application for SOAR abilities across interconnected devices would be a welcome improvement."

"I suppose everybody's working on AI these days. So, I would like to see more about AI-based threats."

"I have had a bit of trouble in the commercial support as a reseller in a country where we started to sell Cynet."

"Sometimes, it is necessary for me to make important changes to a hard drive of a computer, and because Cynet does not allow me to do that, I have to go to the console and remove the computer from the security group just for Cynet."

"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."

More Cynet cons

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

"Deployment of Seqrite Endpoint Security is generally straightforward. The only complexity we encounter is that, since it is cloud-based, there can be delays in updating the endpoint's status."

"In the next version, they should improve the areas of utility and centralized control."

"The cost of the solution can be improved."

"Endpoint Security would be improved by adding DLP."

"The product or service could be improved by incorporating SIEM integrations to enable the collection of logs."

"The stability is zero, Seqrite doesn't work, and the company doesn't accept the problems."

"We are using Apple devices, and the advanced device control service doesn't work for M1 chips devices, like Apple MacBooks."

More Seqrite Endpoint Security cons

Pricing and Cost Advice

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

"It's way too expensive, but security is expensive. You pay for your licensing, and then you pay for someone to monitor the stuff."

"The return on investment is from the user side because we have seen the performance of it increase the delivery time of the product if we are using too many web-based and on-premise applications. In indirect ways, we saw the return of investment in terms of performance and user satisfaction increase."

"This is an expensive solution."

"It is "expensive" and flexible."

"In terms of the cost Cortex XDR by Palo Alto Networks is very expensive because we are a Mexican company and when you translate dollars to pesos the cost is very high. The solution is very expensive for Mexican companies. I understand that they have international prices, but I do not think it offsets the price enough for many companies in countries, such as Mexico. The amount it is reduced is not a massive percentage."

"I feel it is fairly priced."

"It is present, but when compared to other competitive products, I would say it is not less expensive; however, when all of the other added values are considered, the price is reasonable."

More Cortex XDR by Palo Alto Networks pricing and cost advice

"Its licensing is on a monthly basis."

"The pricing was good."

"Our billing is on a quarterly basis, but they have monthly or annual billing availability."

"The licensing for Cynet is yearly. The solution pricing depends on the customer, but it is not very expensive."

"Cynet has a pay-as-you-go pricing model."

"My company's customers have to make yearly payments towards the licensing costs of the solution. Cynet is not expensive."
