The third generation of Cortex XDR \u2014 already delivering top performance in the MITRE ATT&CK<\/a>\u00ae<\/a><\/sup>\u00a0evaluation<\/a><\/u> \u2014 now offers security operations center (SOC) teams even broader protections across their attack surface.\u00a0 By extending detection, monitoring and investigation into cloud environments, and detecting malicious user activities and insider threats through analysis of identity data, SOC teams benefit from security analytics across endpoint, network, cloud and identity for organization-wide detection and response \u2014 critical in an era of increasingly interrelated attacks. <\/p>\n

In addition, Cortex XDR 3.0 offers security teams forensic investigation features based on the advanced proprietary tools of Palo Alto Networks’ world-class Unit 42 Security Consulting group, and supports ingestion and custom correlations for virtually all third-party data sources.<\/p>\n

“Palo Alto Networks created the extended detection and response (XDR) category in 2019 \u2014 understanding that only by integrating data from across all security sources can we detect complex threats accurately, prevent attacks automatically, and investigate them much faster. We’ve been innovating against that mission ever since,” said Tim Junio<\/span>, senior vice president of products, Cortex at Palo Alto Networks. “With our third-generation XDR solution expanding to cloud and identity analytics, Cortex XDR 3.0 has taken a large step towards being the most comprehensive platform for the SOC to protect endpoints, entities, assets, workloads, and critical data.”<\/p>\n

Cortex XDR has delivered top performance for three years running in the MITRE ATT&CK evaluation and achieved the highest overall combined detection and protection rate. As cybersecurity threat actors get faster, more organized and more sophisticated in their tactics, techniques and procedures, the new features of Cortex XDR 3.0 prepare SOC teams to know and stop attacks:<\/p>\n
