Fortinet vs Palo Alto: Comparing EDR software

▤ Summary

This next-generation antivirus capability is built into a lightweight agent and is configurable to make it easy for end-users to set anti-malware protection to the endpoint group of their choosing without further installation. Palo Alto then employs local analysis using machine learning on endpoints to establish whether a file is executable if it is still unidentified after querying WildFire. Palo Alto Networks Traps provides administrators and incident response teams a variety of methods to carry out their investigations, get the necessary data and make the required alterations to endpoints. Fortinet automates incident response actions like ending malicious processes, undoing persistent changes, removing files, opening tickets, isolating devices and applications, and sending out user notifications.
