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.

Provides contextual alerts and risk ratings on findings

It's kind of difficult to quantify areas for improvement. In the larger picture, one challenge is that the NDR space is very crowded today. I can mention half a dozen names just off the top of my head. There are at least 12 to 20 different players. All of them are well-known brand names, and it's difficult to compare them. They all claim to be giving you the same network difference capability: catching malware, dealing with all the minor taxonomy of attack, all that. Still, it's very difficult to compare them side by side because they all do things a little differently, and they all have different presentations and output. We haven't deployed it, so I can't give you what we felt about it exactly. But in the larger perspective, the critical feature is really giving a clear separation between a low, high, and medium criticality. You need a rating that is really true to the actual attack. There's one other capability we are evaluating them for, and it's for custom alerts detection. A lot of these products are trying to profile the threats that are already out there in the industry. They're very well known and published. Today, there are targeted acts being played against organizations, so you have to be sensitive to how your firewalls, protocols, and your HTTP are all operating. You might have some fine-tuned threats that are targeting you, and you should be able to build custom defenses. They should have some openness in terms of how you specify your threats. You get a standard library of threats. On top of it, every organization builds its own.

Built faster threat response and improved visibility with real-time monitoring and flexible deployment

TrendAI Vision One allows us to monitor attacks in real time, which is a significant benefit. We can quickly see where the attack is coming from. TrendAI Vision One enables us to use different products with a flexible license. For example, if a customer is using endpoint security and wants to switch to another solution, they can instantly use a different Trend Micro product, such as email. TrendAI Vision One has helped to reduce the time to detect and respond to different threats, as it can respond to attacks very quickly. With playbook templates, in cases of recurring attacks, responses can be made quickly using predefined playbooks. TrendAI Vision One has helped to reduce noise from false positives. There have been false positives before, but it was due to the customer not telling us which app they were using. Best practice configurations must be applied properly to avoid such issues. TrendAI Vision One helps customers consolidate the use of security vendors and reduce silos by offering one platform for all product management.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"The tool is easy to use."

"Palo Alto is the best security solution in the market."

"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."

"Cortex XDR's most valuable feature is its intelligence-based dashboards."

"One of the main benefits of the solution is its intelligence to correlate the events into an incident."

"The biggest positive impact I see from Cortex XDR by Palo Alto Networks is a significant reduction in the number of people required to manage it."

"After installing this solution, it identified, blocked, and provided the complete attack chain, which was very helpful."

"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."

More Cortex XDR by Palo Alto Networks pros

"They can provide you very contextual alerts on if something bad is happening—coming into your network or going out of your network. As part of that, they gather a lot of threat intelligence and map your connections against that. The larger benefit is that they give you a risk rating on their findings."

"The best features in TrendAI Vision One are the workbench and the XDR feature for the playbooks; we continue to use these two features extensively."

"TrendAI Vision One allows us to monitor attacks in real time, which is a significant benefit, and enables us to use different products with a flexible license, helping to reduce the time to detect and respond to different threats through rapid responses and predefined playbook templates."

"Overall, we have managed to reduce our resolution time by approximately 99% due to our multiple teams working 24/7."

"It is really straightforward, it is very easy to understand, and therefore, I highly recommend the solution."

"The most valuable feature is the network protection shield on every server, which isolates attacks and prevents our clients from being affected."

"For our day-to-day use cases, the correlation and attribution of different alerts are valuable. It is sort of an SIEM, but it is intelligent enough to run the queries and intentionally detect and prioritize attacks for you. At the end of the day, it is different data that you see. It correlates data for you and makes it meaningful. You can see that someone got an email and clicked a link. That link downloaded, for example, malware into the memory of the machine. From there, you can see that they started moving laterally to your environment. I quite like it because it gives visibility, so Workbench is what we use every day"

"TrendAI Vision One has greatly reduced my time to detect and respond to threats."

"The organizational view simplifies management and improves visibility, helping us identify areas for action."

More TrendAI Vision One pros

Cons

"Cortex XDR by Palo Alto Networks could improve by offering remote management. It would be useful to look at the client's issue to fix it."

"While using Cortex, I noticed some aspects that could be improved, such as increasing the synchronization speed between XDR and Xnor."

"I have seen lagging with Cortex XDR by Palo Alto Networks. There was one time when we faced a threat actor trying to gain access to our system. When our team utilized the tool, we were all on the same dashboard and we faced a lag issue at that time of around five minutes, which was quite significant."

"The installation should be easier and the Palo Alto pre-sales and sales teams should have more information on the product because they don't know what they are selling."

"The setup is quite easy. We had appropriate support from the manager. One thing that was missing was the integration part."

"Impact on system performance is horrible, adding a lot of delays for users."

"It takes time to scan the servers and devices."

"Cortex XDR by Palo Alto Networks is a very good product, but financially, it is very expensive, so the company should look into that area."

More Cortex XDR by Palo Alto Networks cons

"My challenge is actually comparing offerings from different vendors across a threat spectrum that is very large."

"My challenge is actually comparing offerings from different vendors across a threat spectrum that is very large. We are talking about millions of threats. How are you confident that Blue Hexagon is catching all one million of them and Palo Alto is doing the same thing? They all have their strengths. Within that, Blue Hexagon might cover 990,000 of them. Palo Alto might cover another 990,000. It's a bit difficult to compare them and say, "Oh, are they catching the same 990,000?" I don't know."

"We do use the automation capability a little. However, we noticed some limitations, especially on the playbook side."

"Integration with other tools and deploying in hybrid environments need improvement."

"Areas that need improvement in TrendAI Vision One include the AI-based mechanism, AI-based detections, and AI-based autonomous detections, which are currently lacking."

"For XDR threat investigation, there is not enough documentation about how to search for different keywords. The documentation for keywords used in attack techniques is lacking, making it difficult to understand certain aspects."

"Trend Vision One has some usability issues."

"Results were delayed."

"There should be improvements in risk quantification, where the risk is displayed in a quantified manner, showing the dollar value loss."

"The deployment process could be more streamlined over the existing infrastructure, as it was not as easy as we thought."

More TrendAI Vision One cons

Pricing and Cost Advice

"The cost of Cortex XDR by Palo Alto Networks is $55 to $90 USD per endpoint per month."

"Traps pays for itself within the first 16 months of a three-year subscription. This is attributed to OPEX savings, as security teams spent less time trying to identify and isolate malware for analysis as a result of a reduction in malware incidents, false positives, and breach avoidance."

"The pricing is okay, although direct support can be expensive."

"This is an expensive solution."

"I don't have any issues with the pricing. We are satisfied with the price."

"The price was fine."

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

"I don't recall what the cost was, but it wasn't really that expensive."

More Cortex XDR by Palo Alto Networks pricing and cost advice

"It's difficult to state the setup cost. All the NDRs range anywhere between $500,000, plus or minus, to $2 million. There's a spread of pricing here, depending on who you are talking to. Obviously the major brand names want more money. They typically bundle it with their other offerings. With Cisco, for example, you don't just buy an NDR. So, typically it gets rolled into the cost."

"Trend Vision One offers a competitive price-to-value ratio."

"Trend Micro solutions are very expensive compared to other solutions. Even though everything is in one console, each feature requires a separate license."

"I find it to be a cost-efficient platform."

"Trend Micro XDR is expensive but we got a good deal from Trend Micro."

"It is definitely not cheap. I do believe you get what you pay for to some degree. It is cost-effective."

"The price for Trend Vision One is reasonable compared to Microsoft and Symantec."

"The pricing for Trend Vision One is reasonable."

"The pricing is fair and not on the higher side."
