A federated identity provider is an outside service provider that has been entrusted by an organization as an authority regarding user authentication and identity management. In the context of a service that leverages single sign-on (SSO), when an individual user requests access to the service, the service contacts the identity provider (IdP) to validate the user’s identity.
At CrowdStrike, we’re on a mission to stop breaches. As adversaries weaponize vulnerabilities with increasing speed, organizations must accelerate their ability to identify security gaps and proactively manage their risk exposure before an adversary breaks in.
Ransomware is a scourge that is on track to inflict over $30 billion in damages in 2023. Businesses and organizations that are hit by a ransomware attack face a potentially devastating data breach, with system downtime, recovery, negative publicity and the likelihood of a ransom payment to deal with. Many small businesses are unable to recover from the ordeal and end up permanently shutting their doors within months of being hit.
Today, mobile devices are ubiquitous within enterprise environments. But with their proliferation, it provides adversaries with yet another attack surface with which they can target users and cause a breach. From phishing attacks to malicious apps, mobile users tend to let their guard down and potentially click on obfuscated links to malicious sites. Falcon for Mobile protects users by preventing connections to malicious sites on both iOS and Android devices.
Like so many legacy technologies, legacy data loss prevention (DLP) tools fail to deliver the protection today’s organizations need. Implementation challenges, visibility gaps and inconsistent policies negatively impact customers and make data breaches far too easy for adversaries. With U.S. data breach costs averaging a staggering $4.45 million last year, organizations need a way to better secure their data as cloud adoption accelerates and IT environments evolve.
Within your incident response plan, there typically is (or should be) a trigger to notify your executive team of an impending crisis. While many organizations believe they’ve worked out the logistics of gathering leadership on the phone, getting decisions made, and garnering their support for your proposed response plan, they often find out in the heat of an incident that the leadership team is miles apart in your understanding of what happens next.
Mobile devices have become critical endpoints for accessing enterprise applications, systems and data. Adversaries know this all too well, as evidenced by the growing numbers of attacks that target mobile devices. Verizon’s 2022 Mobile Security Index found almost half (45%) of enterprises had recently suffered a mobile-related compromise involving devices in the last 12 months — almost double the amount compared to the year prior.

In an increasingly connected digital landscape, the security of your organization’s data and publicly facing assets is more critical than ever. According to the CrowdStrike 2023 Threat Hunting Report, more than 20% of all interactive intrusions are associated with the exploitation of public-facing applications. As an organization’s attack surface expands and cyberthreats proliferate, it is imperative IT and security teams take a proactive approach to safeguarding their digital footprint.
