How to Speed Investigations with Falcon Forensics

Threat hunters and incident responders are under tremendous time pressure to investigate breaches and incidents. While they are collecting and sorting massive quantities of forensic data, fast response is critical to help limit any damage inflected by the adversary. This article and video will provide an overview of Falcon Forensics, and how it streamlines the collection and analysis of point-in-time and historic forensic data.

What Is Data Logging?

Humio is a CrowdStrike Company. Data logging is the process of capturing, storing and displaying one or more datasets to analyze activity, identify trends and help predict future events. Data logging can be completed manually, though most processes are automated through intelligent applications like artificial intelligence (AI), machine learning (ML) or robotic process automation (RPA).

CrowdStrike Services Launches Log4j Quick Reference Guide (QRG)

How to Find and Eliminate Blind Spots in the Cloud

Visibility in the cloud is an important but difficult problem to tackle. It differs among cloud providers, and each one has its own positive and negative aspects. This guide covers some of the logging and visibility options that Amazon Web Services (AWS) and Google Cloud Platform (GCP) offer, and highlights their blind spots and how to eliminate them.

Reduce Active Directory Security Risks

Since a majority of the breaches are credential based, securing your multi-directory identity store - Microsoft Active Directory (AD) and Azure AD - is critical to protecting your organization from adversaries launching ransomware and supply chain attacks. Your security and IAM teams are concerned about securing AD and maintaining AD hygiene - and they need to be in sync, for example, to ensure that legacy and deprecated protocols like NTLMv1 are not being used and that the right security controls are in place to prevent breaches in real time.
