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.

Exceptional malware protection with regular updates and behavior-based detection
There are no built-in backups or integrated backup options, which could be an opportunity. The free version is effective, however, the paid version is pricey compared to it. Other customers have mentioned issues with false positives. It lacks enterprise-level management and more enterprise functionality. CrowdStrike and SentinelOne are much more enterprise-grade solutions. Malwarebytes has limited integration with cybersecurity tools and lacks enterprise integrations because it is not an enterprise product.

Virtual patching has protected critical workloads and reduced downtime across financial environments
The best features Trend Micro Deep Security offers include virtual patching and comprehensive protection from multiple modules such as anti-malware, web reputation, firewall, integrity monitoring, and log inspection. It is very user-friendly, easy to understand, and helps us integrate multiple products with Deep Security. The user-friendly aspect and integration of Trend Micro Deep Security have helped my team significantly. For example, we can integrate our SIEM product, Active Directory, and multiple platforms. If an operations engineer cannot find something or forgets about a suspicious activity, we can identify the suspicious thing with the help of the SIEM. With Active Directory, we maintain our compliance, checking which server has Deep Security and which does not. By integrating these solutions, we effectively maintain compliance in our environment. Trend Micro Deep Security has positively impacted our organization because we have implemented it for multiple purposes, primarily for server security. It is installed on both multiple virtual and physical servers with minimal performance impact. It has been extremely stable throughout our usage, with no major disturbances.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"If the user leaves our premises or network, Palo Alto Traps will still be on that endpoint and will still apply our policies."
"Provides behavior-based detection which offers many benefits over signature-based detection."
"Stability is a primary factor, and then there's the ease of distribution and policy management."
"Based on my experience, I would recommend Cortex XDR by Palo Alto Networks to other people."
"One of the things that I enjoy the most is using policy extensions. It's like having host firewalls to control USB connections. I think it's a wonderful tool to restrict use when connecting to our computers. Another important tool is Home Insights. That is an add-on to the Cortex solution. I like that because we can see all the vulnerabilities in the environment and control what assets are connected to our network."
"The tool's use cases are relevant to security."
"The solution's stability is generally good."
"The interface is easy to use and it is more up to date than our previous solution."
"Ten times a day, improved signatures will be downloaded, so it is very up-to-date in terms of malware experience."
"The product provides notifications for suspicious events. We have several public access points. The product helps to prevent unauthorized entry. Its most valuable features are pre-installation procedures and a cloud console. The console's interface is simple and can be viewed easily to take action. It covers everything in terms of security threats."
"The most valuable features of Malwarebytes are the agents, user experience, efficiency of the findings, and MDR features."
"The most valuable features of Malwarebytes are the EDR and the complete feature set provided."
"It allows us to have better knowledge of the way people use the tool and how we can improve their workflows."
"The dashboard actually is good and it is simple."
"The solution is very good at scanning."
"We don't have to spend any time remediating bad things happening: Not viruses nor ransomware."
"DLP, Data Loss Prevention, and the complexity of how we manage the console and how this client, or this tool, will notify us when there is something going wrong within the server and endpoint, is good."
"The most valuable feature of this solution is the virtual path function, which is the reason we chose to implement it."
"I strongly recommend Trend Micro Deep Security to any organization looking for a powerful, scalable, and future-ready server security solution."
"The file integrity and log inspection are game-changing features for us."
"The most valuable feature of the product is vulnerability detection."
"There are a good signature set and a high rate of detection."
"The vulnerability scanning reduces false positives by quite a bit."
"The traceback feature in XDR is amazing. You can trace back an attack. You can playback where an attack actually occurred and see how the attacker moved. We can easily show this to management, and it makes it easy to make them understand and convince them, which is the best thing."
 

Cons

"Impact on system performance is horrible, adding a lot of delays for users."
"There are some false positives. What our guys would have liked is that it would have been easier to manipulate as soon as they found a false positive that they knew was a false positive. How to do so was not obvious. Some people complained about it. The interface, the ESM, is not user-friendly."
"I think sometimes Cortex XDR agent automatically stops event capturing from the device, and then even the dashboard does not get any notifications from the agent."
"The price could be a little lower."
"It should support more mobile operating systems. That is one of the cons of their infrastructure right now."
"It's very time-consuming to log support issues and the people that answer the tickets aren't very knowledgeable."
"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."
"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."
"Malwarebytes should improve its mobile compatibility."
"A solution must be installed in the main gateway to give an overview of the incoming and outgoing traffic. The technical support team's response time should be faster."
"There are no built-in backups or integrated backup options, which could be an opportunity."
"Strictly in terms of cyber security, the release cycle should be quarterly, at most. It shouldn't be more frequent than that because, for one thing, keeping up with tech support is difficult."
"Notifications are lacking."
"The product is a little bit more expensive than the other brands."
"The interface could be improved. Currently, you need to really dig around to find the elements you need."
"It's not good in search hunting."
"The updates for legacy systems are not rolled out frequently."
"When implementing this solution, sometimes we have challenges with SQL migration."
"Another issue is if I want to suggest this solution to a customer, we won't get the pricing immediately, which is a major problem."
"Customer support is sometimes delayed, but my overall experience with it is good."
"It would be better if they merge a few features into one product. For example, they have an encryption feature that is separately sold. If they could merge it with Apex One or any endpoint security solution, maybe it would also be good for the end user."
"It needs better global visibility of the virtual environment."
"We'd like to have more application control."
"The support for email protection can be improved."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"The pricing is okay, although direct support can be expensive."
"Our license will require renewal in August, after which the maintenance will continue as usual."
"I don't like that they have different types of licenses."
"Compared to CrowdStrike, Cortex XDR is an expensive solution."
"We pay about $50,000 USD per year for a bundle that includes Cortex XDR."
"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."
"The price of the solution could be reduced. I have customers that have voiced that the solution is good for the value but if I want to sell more of the solution the price reduction would help."
"Cortex XDR’s pricing is very reasonable."
"It is expensive."
"The price of Malwarebytes is in the middle range compared to other vendors."

"Yearly, it is around $50 per client."
"I rate the tool's pricing a five out of ten."
"Its licensing is annual. There are no additional costs beyond the standard licensing fee."
"The platform pricing is competitive with other antivirus products."
"The cost may be something in the ballpark of $20-25 a year per computer."
"We pay a yearly fee of between $10,000 and $15,000."

"The solution is offered at an average price point"
"We are paying approximately $50,000 each month, it's definitely expensive."
