I then assigned specific endpoints to this Policy Rule and the rule is #1 in the policy order tab. The problem I am facing is that the targeted computers do not seem to receive the new policy. YES, the r...

Cortex XDR Alerts - Slack Integration

Is there any way to include the hostname for alerts received in Slack? They are very valuable to receive on the phone late at night, but would be even better if we had a bit more information: hostname, domain, something that indicates this is a test box... 🙂Any takers? Is there something we need to tweak, or is this a feature request?Examples:A...

CISCO ASA Firewall connection to Cortex XDR

Hi, We have an environment where by we have CISCO ASA Firewalls, our Client Base would communicate with a Proxy Server and then this would pass the details onto the Firewall and the ASA Firewalls would then communicate with Cortex XDR.

XDR agent based firewall for locking down communication between DC's&SCCM

Hello everyone, We are looking to implement agent based firewall rules to lock down the communication between DC's and SCCM servers we have 20+ of each and I am wondering what is the most feasible way of doing that? User Guide has pretty much no guidance on anything FW related. Any suggestions would be appreciated.

initial profiling?

when you first install the Cortex XDR agent on a new server (and reboot if on Windows), is it immediately 'active' and blocking suspicious processes? I was told that it ran in 'passive' mode for 30-days as it built a profile of "normal" activity for that agent. I ask because we are starting to use immutable servers which are recreated from-scrat...
