Cortex

About Cortex

Cortex is a comprehensive cybersecurity platform developed by Palo Alto Networks. It leverages artificial intelligence and machine learning to provide advanced threat detection, investigation, and response capabilities. Cortex integrates various security tools and data sources to offer a unified approach to security operations.

Key features of Cortex include:

  1. Cortex XDR: An extended detection and response solution that collects and correlates data across multiple security layers.
  2. Cortex XSOAR: A security orchestration, automation, and response (SOAR) platform that helps streamline incident response processes.
  3. Cortex Data Lake: A centralized data repository that enables efficient storage and analysis of security-related data.
  4. Cortex Xpanse: An attack surface management solution that helps organizations discover and secure their internet-exposed assets.

Cortex is designed to help security teams improve their overall security posture, reduce response times, and enhance their ability to detect and mitigate sophisticated threats across cloud, network, and endpoint environments.

How it works

We work hand-in-hand with you to implement Cortex

Step 1

Process Audit

Conduct a comprehensive assessment of your existing security operations, incident response procedures and threat management workflows. Our consultants evaluate your current tools, data sources and team capabilities to establish a baseline for Cortex integration, ensuring alignment with your cybersecurity objectives and compliance requirements.

Step 2

Identify Automation Opportunities

Analyse your security operations to identify high-value automation opportunities across threat detection, investigation and response processes. Our specialists map potential integration points between Cortex XDR, XSOAR and your existing security infrastructure, prioritising workflows that will deliver the greatest operational efficiency gains.

Step 3

Design Workflows

Develop detailed workflow architectures that leverage Cortex’s AI-driven capabilities for enhanced threat detection and response. Our experts design automated playbooks and custom integrations that optimise your security operations, incorporating industry best practices and your organisation’s specific requirements.

Step 4

Implementation

Execute the staged deployment of Cortex components, beginning with Data Lake implementation and progressing through XDR and XSOAR integration. Our implementation team manages the technical configuration, data source connections, and customisation of detection rules while minimising operational disruption.

Step 5

Quality Assurance Review

Conduct thorough testing of all implemented Cortex components and automated workflows. Our security specialists verify threat detection accuracy, response procedures, and integration performance, ensuring your security operations are optimised and meeting defined objectives.

Step 6

Support and Maintenance

Provide ongoing support and regular system health checks to maintain optimal Cortex performance. Our team monitors system effectiveness, fine-tunes detection rules, updates automation playbooks, and delivers continuous improvement recommendations to enhance your security posture.
