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 effective real-time threat detection with potential for cost optimization
Some features such as device control, firewall management, and file analysis are standalone products that we need to purchase separately. If these features came out of the box within the product, it would be much more beneficial for us. Other providers such as SentinelOne include these features in their base product. We attended a CrowdStrike Falcon event where they discussed some shallow AI features, but we cannot see these in our panel yet. We work with different solutions such as Darktrace and SocRadar, where AI features are automatically displayed in our dashboards after release. However, for CrowdStrike Falcon, we cannot see these features.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"Being a cloud solution it is very flexible in serving internal and external connections and a broad range of devices."
"It's a nice product that's stable and scalable."
"They did what they said. This solution could apply to any scenario."
"The information the dashboard provides is very clear."
"Stability is a primary factor, and then there's the ease of distribution and policy management."
"Traps is quite a stable product. Once it was properly deployed and configured, you have nothing to be worried about."
"Cortex is the best tool for endpoint detection, with 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."
"Cortex XDR's most valuable feature is its intelligence-based dashboards."
"CrowdStrike provides a lot of visibility in their tool."
"The platform is very scalable."
"It's ability to do threat hunting is really great, quite robust, and even allows you to do hygiene stuff."
"The best benefit of CrowdStrike Falcon is 99% MITRE coverage."
"The ability to execute real-time response, or, that you can connect to the agent and see exactly what processes are operating, is the most important feature of this solution."
"This solution consistently releases improvements. They have communicated their next two years of development which is powerful and covers all of our needs."
"I like the detection rates of mobile threats."
"The stability is very good."
"The solution effectively detects malicious files and blocks sign-ins."
"The convenience has been great."
"I like Seqrite's web protection features and external device control."
"The most valuable features are the file activity monitors, DLP solutions, and application controls."
"The most valuable feature is its endpoint protection, particularly the antivirus component. It has been very effective in protecting our clients, and since its installation, we haven't encountered any issues with compromised endpoints or virus impacts."
"The most valuable features of the solution are DLP, XDR, and EDR functionalities."
"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."
 

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."
"We would also like to have advanced tech protection and email scanning."
"The setup is quite easy. We had appropriate support from the manager. One thing that was missing was the integration part."
"In the next release, I would like to see more UI improvements. Their UI is a bit basic. When we are speaking about Palo Alto Networks they are the big company, so they can improve the UI a little bit. The UI, the reports, the log system can all be improved."
"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."
"We had a problem with getting our older endpoints up to date, but their newest updates have been really good. I've been pleased with it in terms of what our needs are. It's doing what we want it to do."
"The solution lags to the real-time scenarios here and there."
"I would like to see some additional features related to email protection included."
"The management of the solution could improve."
"The console is a little cluttered and at times, finding what you're looking for is not intuitive."
"The price is too high."
"The solution could improve the policies themselves. It would be helpful if there were cost-cutting measures."
"Crowdstrike Falcon XDR can improve the integration. There are some locks on the cloud to on-premise integrations."
"It does take more time to scan than other solutions."
"We would like to be able to perform on-demand scanning, rather than relying on the scheduler."
"I think there's an opportunity to enhance the AI or at least the traps to say, if something changes from this baseline, let us know and flag it."
"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."
"The solution's integration capabilities are moderate and could be improved."
"The interface is slow."
"A handbook of known issues and quick fixes should be given so that troubleshooting and frustration are less."
"User management could be improved."
"I don't feel that the scalability part of Seqrite Endpoint Security is better than the other products in the market."
"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."
"The support offered by the tool is an area of concern where improvements are required."

We are very comfortable with their level of expertise. So, it's kind of worth the price that we pay.""
"This solution offers annual subscriptions. The pricing for this solution could be reduced."
"The licensing fee is 200 Bangladeshi Taka per client per year."
