Likelihood to Recommend QRadar is very well suited on environments where there are not multiple tenants or domains, we do have success on this kind of scenario. IBM Security QRadar SIEM is less appropriate for environments with multiple tenants, specially when each tenant represent a different End Costumer (such as for MSSP companies), those environments require a high amount of rules and building blocks replications, since each tenant will have its own "BB definitions", servers, rules exception, etc. Also, some information, such as EPS count or EPS dropped are generated by QRadar's own log sources, which takes place on default domain, therefore users associated with different domain can not have access to those logs, even when the information is related to other domain's environment. For example, even if Event Collector 1 is associated to Domain A, the log informing its dropped EPS is generated by System notification, log source that must be associated to Default domain.
Read full review Malware that doesn’t leave files behind has become widely available. Anyone who can afford to reverse this trend should purchase technology. Application whitelisting isn’t for everyone, and Palo Alto Networks Traps can help. Enterprises looking for a low-affected, next-generation solution with high protection should consider it. PAN Traps is a great product at a reasonable price, and I highly recommend it.
Read full review Pros Enables identification and prioritization of vulnerabilities in IT infrastructure for corrective action. Facilitates security incident investigation and forensic analysis. Provides a real-time view of security events, enabling immediate incident response. Can integrate with external threat intelligence sources to enrich data and improve threat detection. Enables the generation of detailed and customized reports. Read full review Direct Access to devices via Live Terminal which provides operations with scripting, triage, and preservation of artifacts. Behavioral Indicators of Compromise which provides alerts on events regarding groups of hosts and their signatures. Querying complex data sets involving a variety of devices for network connections, hashes, DNS, etc. Read full review Cons Need to spend more time configuring the system to properly interpret and normalize different type of data collected from multiple resources. While Rule creation QRadar uses that rules to detect security threats and generate alerts, but to creating and managing rules is bit complex & tedious work to complete. IBM Security QRadar SIEM is excellent in handling large & complex systems that requires in-depth knowledge and extensive training to configure and maintain the system which includes upgrading, optimization of performance & issue troubleshooting. Read full review Traps doesn't seem to function as a traditional A/V very well, so it's better as another layer to your endpoint protection Traps can cause issues with some legacy or custom programs, so exceptions may have to be made Traps falsely identifies things as malicious at times, this is not often though Read full review Likelihood to Renew With the arrival of IBM Security QRadar SIEM at our company, we have a better vision of all the security needs that may arise, it is a very safe software to use that prevents threats from damaging our IT environment, it is impossible to change it for another software.
Read full review Usability A very special system to use without problems, the process is very genuine and does not require complicated procedures.
Read full review Day to day, Cortex is easy to use when you have no alerts and when an agent upgrade doesn't go south. Alerts are far too "clicky", there's too many steps to drilling down to what actually happened to trigger an alert. Investigating alerts in Cortex takes about 5x longer than it should.
Read full review Support Rating Customer support is Good of IBM, While Using IBM QRadar its deployment is to slow and suddenly stop working and crashed we have contacted IBM Support and Rised a Ticket within a few minute we get call back from customer support and Query Resolved by them Fast And Rapid Support of Ibm
Read full review The support we receive from Palo Alto is one of the best aspects of Traps. It is very easy to recommend their support. It seems much easier to connect directly with someone with a deep understanding of the product rather than other companies where you basically have to make an airtight case that it is some kind of non-standard issue that can't be solved with existing documentation. Palo Alto digs deep and helps with advanced troubleshooting to get things working.
Read full review Alternatives Considered IBM Qradar takes the best from its competitors. Reliable and stable but sometimes very expensive, the SIEM from IBM offers a wide range of scenarios in which the customers can suite and size their own infrastructures. IBM Qradar doesn't really needs to stack up againt its competitors because it already sets an example in the SIEM world.
Read full review Traps is the slickest interface, easy to use and intuitive rule making, and the rest just didn't quite stack up to the performance level of Traps.
McAfee and Kaspersky just hog processor and RAM power. I didn't like the interface and functionality of
SentinelOne as much as Traps. Palo Alto really put a lot of time into the development of this software, and had some of the founding fathers of IT Security heading the development process. Can't beat that.
Read full review Return on Investment Offense investigation was really helped in tackling the incidents. It was accurate and brief The automation with IBM resilient (SOAR) was a milestone in elimination of user mistakes The X-Force threat intelligence supported us in getting the work done without any 3rd party enterprise OSINT database Read full review After putting Palo Alto Networks Cortex XDR on a user's system, users came back with a positive response that there are no performance issues now. We are able to track and control granular suspicious and malicious activities. Web controls are missing, which if they would have been there would have been very helpful.
