Security analysts continue to face an ever-evolving threat landscape, and their traditional approaches are proving to be quite limited. They continue to be overrun with security alerts, and their SIEMs often fail to properly correlate all relevant data, leaving them more exposed to cyber threats. These analysts require a more effective method to understand threats faster and reduce security risks in their environment.

For years, Microsoft has been making significant inroads in the security space, earning number-one rankings from top industry analyst firms IDC and Forrester for its endpoint and extended detection and response (XDR) security tools. Taking full advantage of these tools, however, requires some significant know-how and 24x7 staffing, prompting many to turn to a managed detection and response (MDR) service provider for help.

Today’s adversaries are moving faster than ever. With the quickest attacks happening in just 7 minutes, adversaries are compromising endpoints and moving laterally before security teams can respond.1 It’s critical for organizations to have the technology to stay ahead of them.

If a picture is worth a thousand words, the 2023 Gartner® Magic Quadrant™ for Endpoint Protection Platforms says it all. Today, I’m incredibly honored and proud to announce CrowdStrike has been named a Leader in the 2023 Gartner® Magic Quadrant™ for Endpoint Protection Platforms. We have been positioned furthest right for Completeness of Vision and highest for Ability to Execute among 16 vendors evaluated in the report.

In the ever-evolving cybersecurity landscape, organizations are constantly striving to enhance their defenses against organized malicious actors. As cyber attacks become more advanced, regulatory bodies have created and enforced compliance requirements to ensure that organizations protect sensitive data and systems. One groundbreaking solution that can help your organization meet these challenges is Extended Detection and Response, known as XDR.
