Autonomous AI-driven endpoint protection and XDR
Overview
SentinelOne provides autonomous endpoint protection using AI to prevent, detect, and respond to threats in real time. Its Singularity platform combines EPP, EDR, and XDR with a strong storyline feature that visualises the full attack chain for faster investigation.
UK Pricing
Singularity Core from ~£6/endpoint/mo. Complete/Commercial tiers on request.
Target Size
100+ endpoints
Why Use It
SentinelOne is a strong alternative to CrowdStrike, particularly for organisations that want autonomous response (not just detection) and need ransomware rollback capability. Its storyline feature makes incident investigation accessible for smaller security teams.
Why Not
If your team relies on managed detection and response (MDR) partnerships or needs the broadest third-party integrations, CrowdStrike's ecosystem is more mature.
Pros & Cons
Pros
- Autonomous threat response without requiring analyst intervention
- Excellent attack storyline visualisation for investigations
- Strong ransomware rollback capability (Vigilance MDR)
- Native cloud workload protection (VMs, containers)
- Competitive feature set at slightly lower price than CrowdStrike
Cons
- Smaller threat intelligence database than CrowdStrike
- Console UI less polished than CrowdStrike
- Fewer third-party integrations than CrowdStrike Falcon
- MDR service less established than CrowdStrike's Falcon Complete
- Brand recognition lower with UK managed service providers
How to Get the Most Out of It
- Enable Automated Response in Protect mode once you're confident in baseline tuning
- Use Storyline to walk through any alert — it builds a visual process tree that shows the full attack chain
- Configure Ranger network discovery to identify unmanaged devices on your network
- Use the Rollback feature to recover files encrypted by ransomware without paying ransom
- Integrate with your SIEM early to export detections for correlation
