SentinelOne vs
Broadcom

Broadcom: Disjointed and Ineffective

With Broadcom, customers experience a disjointed, ineffective combination of Symantec and Carbon Black, with serious gaps in AI, remediation, and native MDR. See why SentinelOne is a faster, smarter, easier-to-use Broadcom alternative.
AI

Purple AI is the Most Advanced AI Security Analyst

Accelerate SecOps with natural language querying on first- and third-party data, hunting quick starts, natural language summaries of results and events, and suggested follow-up questions. Customers have unlimited queries, and it’s all included in Singularity Complete.

Basic AI Integration

Broadcom lacks generative AI assistant capabilities and assisted querying. This results in increased workload, manual investigation, and advanced skill requirements for human analysts.

Deployment

Single Agent and Flexible Deployment

SentinelOne delivers a single, lightweight agent with superior behavioral detection models and on-device AI to deliver highly accurate, real-time threat detections and fewer alerts. Customers can deploy in the cloud, on-premises, hybrid, or air-gapped environments.

Compartmentalized Consoles and Heavy Footprint

Broadcom customers must choose Carbon Black or Symantec, or both—and they are not unified. This results in complicated procurement, major system impacts, and large resource consumption.

Detections

Stop More Threats with Behavioral AI

SentinelOne’s Behavioral AI engines autonomously detect and block malicious activity in real-time, even zero-day and fileless attacks. In the most recent MITRE ATT&CK Evaluations, SentinelOne detected 100% of threats and generated 88% fewer alerts than the median across participating vendors.

Weak Coverage and Detection

Broadcom has not participated in the MITRE ATT&CK Evaluations since 2023, when both Symantec and Carbon Black (before the Broadcom acquisition) had excessive missed detections. Broadcom’s signature-based approach cannot keep up with modern threats.


Investigations

Disjointed Consoles and Slow Investigations

Due to poor integration with third-party dashboards, consoles, and data sources, as well as not having a SIEM solution, Broadcom customers must constantly switch between different portals or interfaces. This manual process is tedious and slows investigations.

Response

Lightning-Fast Remediation

When a threat is detected, SentinelOne’s extensive automation and one-click remediation and rollback feature instantly reverses malicious changes, drastically outperforming manual remediation processes.

Manual Containment Only

Response and remediation capabilities are limited to containment or scripted, rather than rollback, remediation, or automated workflows. This legacy approach is outdated and slow, putting businesses at unnecessary risk.

Native MDR Service

SentinelOne offers the flexibility to choose the best operational model for your business. Our superior MDR service ensures you get the best possible protection, no matter who is at the keyboard.

No Native Managed Services

Broadcom customers have to navigate the challenges of engaging a third-party MDR provider. This can lead to complex integration, gaps in coverage, data silos, higher cost, and more.
