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.

Comprehensive visibility has strengthened endpoint control and automated threat response across networks
When it comes to improving Forescout Platform, I have faced some issues recently, particularly with the switch integration part. When integrating a switch, it asks for the vendor type, and often it does not match. For example, one series of HP switches may not be found in that vendor list. This leads to frustration because you have to check again with different HP models, and once you integrate a switch, you cannot edit the vendor list without removing it. Other issues are being worked on, particularly related to switch integration. I believe they will be fixed in the next upgrade or patch fix. There are no major issues, but the configuration changes needed for the switch model are necessary, and I think it would help if during integration, an admin user could check the password or credential used, as they currently cannot see the password after it is entered and saved.

Centralized security management has unified risk visibility and enables faster, AI-driven response
Regarding improvements for TrendAI Vision One – Network Security, I think users can take advantage of customized reports. Additionally, clients sometimes find it difficult to integrate third-party open-source integrations, so this area could be improved. Regarding the needed improvements for TrendAI Vision One – Network Security, the deployment guide and migration guide can be better. If clients are migrating, for example, from on-premises to cloud or from one solution to another, the documentation should be more understandable for non-technical teams, helping them decide where to start. I rate it nine out of 10 due to issues with documentation and support for deployment and migration-related activities. Sometimes I find it difficult for clients to understand the requirements for migration. If the guide or documentation is easier, clients can understand it better and decide where to start. In email security with TrendAI Vision One – Network Security, I found one bug related to inbound emails. If we apply attachment policies, such as requiring analysis for incoming email attachments, the AI sometimes flags email signatures as attachments. This issue can lead to quarantining emails without malicious attachments, which is problematic.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"We have found in our test Cortex XDR by Palo Alto Networks to be a very good tool."
"If you are looking to deploy a security solution as a whole, this is a good option."
"Cortex XDR by Palo Alto Networks has changed the way my security team detects, investigates, and responds to threats, as we are able to see the files, unwanted files, unsecured files, and unauthorized files, so we are quarantining them."
"Cortex XDR by Palo Alto Networks is specifically designed to prevent zero-day attacks and is part of an ecosystem of Palo Alto, providing customers with a long-term vision to modify and redesign how security is applied in their company."
"Its interface and pricing are most valuable, and it is better than other vendors in terms of security."
"The solution doesn't need a high level of technical training."
"It has absolutely improved the way our organization functions, we are more secure, it is giving us more peace of mind, and it has found malicious activity happening on our endpoints that probably would not have been detected if we didn't have it."
"Based on my experience with Cortex XDR by Palo Alto Networks, I highly recommend it due to its quick response to zero-day attacks and low utilization from end-user devices."
"You can quickly filter your view of devices and zero in on the ones you want using a variety of tools, such as what subnet it is on or what it has been classified as."
"Obtaining visibility into the network and connected devices is very simple with this tool. It takes me three minutes to do a base deployment when all the parameters are available."
"The most valuable feature for us is the visibility into all connected devices."
"ForeScout is a powerful network access control tool that has some features found in insider threat solutions, though it is not exactly made for that."
"Forescout Platform's best feature is plug-in integration."
"The support from the Forescout Platform is great."
"The most valuable feature is the ease of deployment, which does not require the use of an agent."
"We are provided with real-time visibility and control of devices accessing our network."
"Trend Vision One - Network Security has positively impacted my organization as our network operations team has found it very useful for monitoring all threats coming in via the network layer and taking swift actions compared to earlier."
"From the single console, clients can see everything, including each log coming from endpoints, networks, emails, and all attack surface configurations, and they can manage everything from a single dashboard."
 

Cons

"For working with the solution, you only really need a web browser, however, we've found that working on Chrome, for example, is horrible."
"The solution could improve by providing better integration with their own products and others."
"The server sometimes stops continuously to check things so it would be helpful to receive access updates or technical reasons."
"It's not an ideal choice for smaller businesses, as you need a minimum of 200 endpoints to even use the solution at all."
"The solution should offer more dashboards and they should be better customized."
"If they had pulse rate detection, it would be better."
"Being able to filter the events to see those that are related to the actual alert would save time spent by the engineer."
"The MAC agent is not as robust feature-wise as the PC version."
"We need to pay for integration for each integration that we want to do and there is an additional license fee."
"Regarding pricing, there is room for improvement to enhance competitiveness with other vendors and solutions."
"Forescout Platform sometimes returns false positives, so there's some fine-tuning to be done there."
"It needs easier integration to other partners that automate functions within the security phase."
"We only looked at it in terms of discovery modes and I think it's too expensive to use for that purpose alone."
"I would rate this solution 7 out of 10."
"Search - needs boolean functionality (or pseudo operand now working)."
"The technical support could be improved in terms of response time and first-level support quality."
"In email security with TrendAI Vision One – Network Security, I found one bug related to inbound emails. If we apply attachment policies, such as requiring analysis for incoming email attachments, the AI sometimes flags email signatures as attachments."
"Trend Vision One - Network Security can be improved by integrating with the native firewall and bringing in that telemetry feed."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"The tool's price is moderate."
"It's the most expensive solution, but features-wise, it's quite strong. It's very good for protection, so the results are very good in the case of protection. I would rate it a two out of ten in terms of pricing."
"This is an expensive solution."
"The pricing is a little high. It is per user per year."
"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."
"I don't recall what the cost was, but it wasn't really that expensive."
"Very costly product."
"The solution is expensive. It's pricing is on a yearly-basis."
"We paid between $20,000 and $25,000 for a three-year license with maintenance."
"The fact that we were allowed to spin up as many servers as we had need of to support our geographic requirements while paying for licensing as an enterprise truly set Forescout apart from the crowd and improved the way we could design our access."
"The price of the solution is reasonable. We have paid for the license for five years. We have integration with Symantec AV for orchestration, and we have an additional license."
"The solution’s pricing is fine."
"We might have paid in the ballpark of $20,000 yearly for our licenses. I do not recall there being other fees over and above the standard licensing fee."
"I would rate Forescout Platform's pricing as four out of five."
"Forescout Platform is too expensive, so the price should be reduced."
"You can have a flexible license depending on your environment."
