Palo Alto Networks Cortex XSOAR vs. Trellix ePolicy Orchestrator

XSOAR is well suited for phishing detection and response. Phishing alerts are as much of a
problem today as they were decades ago. This is because: ●Attackers Can leverage automation to launch high-quantity phishing attacks with the click
of a button.
●Spear Phishing attacks are sophisticated and sometimes indistinguishable from real
emails, resulting in compromise through human error.
●Security Teams aren’t able to follow set processes while responding to phishing alerts.
They must coordinate across email inboxes, threat intel, NGFW, ticketing, and
other tools. Each tool has different consoles, data conventions, and contexts,
making it difficult for security teams to fill in the gaps while minimizing
errors. XSOAR is less suited for analyzing traffic.

[McAfee ePolicy Orchestrator] seems to be better suited to large enterprise applications... I don't feel it really suits the or self-managed SMB market. The general joe is not going to understand how to wield this product to it's full potential. For those of us managing large networks, this is a very ideal product for managing multiple sites and users.

• Automation with immediate security responses.
• Comprehensive phishing protection and increased email protection.
• Analysis and reporting feature.
• Intuitive and easy-to-view panels.
• Alerts by email and sms of incidents for the administration.
• Centralized monitoring.

• Static malware scans for known bad processes and files works well and can be schedules on endpoints easily
• Preventing users from accessing USB drives and other peripherals is easily configured. We can also allow users to access to USB drives with user codes for the times they need it for business reasons.
• ePO provides access into our MSME software so that we're not managing many different products from different locations.
• In recent years the console has gotten much easier to navigate even though there is a ton of information to be accessed.

• The XSOAR bot creates a lot of noise on the summary page of any XSOAR incident. Although the filter is available to reduce the view, by default this should not be visible cluttering the whole scenario.
• The interface has too much data on a single pane. I would love to have many buttons to just click and do stuff.
• Also, I would love to have search areas more interactive and easier to navigate.

• It has a slow mechanism when adding custom threat feeds. For example, if McAfee didn't have a signature or detection about a new virus and we try to add it to our console it is like a really big process in adding that to our available signatures.
• Whenever a scan is performed, the system CPU utilization goes up 100 percent.
• Installation fails due to difference in timestamp when we try to shuffle between packages.

It has proven to be far to valuable and effective to consider getting rid of it. Until something better comes along, this is staying in our product stack.

McAfee support is definitely GREAT! It is one of the best technical support on a business level. GOLD support is recommended to business. Their website is easy and quick to create a ticket. Their technical team usually responds right away with an email or call. Via call and web they provide a full and complete support until the issue is resolved. The best, most of the time they explain in detail what is the issue, the reason and how to resolve it.

It was much easier than we all anticipated.

The quantity of integrations with security solutions is highest in Palo Alto Solution. The capacity to identify anomalous events is much better in Palo Alto Networks Cortex XSOAR. The flexibility of increased storage area is better as well. The dashboard is very intuitive about showing the most important incidents and how to resolve them.

I have used Symantec Endpoint Encryption before. Symantec and EPO are both good in their own ways. EPO allows integration of other McAfee products. I have been using ePolicy Orchestrator for years. I have a lot of experience with the product. That is why I like it.
