The weeks following the release of the MITRE Engenuity ATT&CK Evaluation can be confusing when trying to interpret the results and cut through the noise. But one thing is crystal clear in this year’s evaluation that every organization should know: The CrowdStrike Falcon® platform stands alone in delivering native identity protection capabilities that shut down adversaries and stop the breach before it even starts.
Falcon Horizon, CrowdStrike’s Cloud Security Posture Management solution, uses configuration and behavioral policies to monitor public cloud deployments, proactively identify issues and resolve potential security problems. However, customers are not limited to predefined policies. This article will review the different options for creating custom cloud security posture management policies in Falcon Horizon.
We are excited that Forrester has named CrowdStrike a “Leader” in The Forrester Wave™: Endpoint Detection and Response (EDR) Providers, Q2 2022 and recognized us as dominating in EDR while building our future in extended detection and response (XDR) and Zero Trust. We believe that to be a leader in XDR, you must first be a leader in EDR, which is why we are well-positioned to drive innovation and lead the XDR market forward.
Mistakes are easy to make, but in the world of cloud computing, they aren’t always easy to find and remediate without help. Cloud misconfigurations are frequently cited as the most common causes of breaches in the cloud. According to a 2021 survey from VMware and the Cloud Security Alliance, one in six surveyed companies experienced a public cloud security breach or incident due to a cloud misconfiguration in the previous 12 months.
CrowdStrike data science researchers recently explored and experimented with the use of Bidirectional Encoder Representation from Transformers (BERT) for embedding command lines, focusing on anomaly detection, but without detailing the model itself. Diving deeper into that research, CrowdStrike researchers explain the reasons for using BERT for command line representation and how to train the model and assess its performance.
As many organizations move to the cloud, CrowdStrike has noticed a significant increase in both opportunistic and targeted attacks against cloud resources, with a large number of these attacks targeting organizations’ Microsoft 365 (M365) infrastructure, often specifically around their business email service, or Exchange Online.
At CrowdStrike, we believe that rigorous, independent testing is a vital part of the security ecosystem. It provides customers with transparency and insight into the critical capabilities required to stop today’s sophisticated threats. That’s why I’m excited to share the results of Round 4 of the MITRE Engenuity ATT&CK Enterprise Evaluation: The CrowdStrike Falcon platform stops breaches with 100% prevention, comprehensive visibility and actionable alerts.
In today’s fast-paced world, mobility, connectivity and data access are essential. As organizations grow and add more workloads, containers, distributed endpoints and different security solutions to protect them, security can quickly become complex. Modern attacks and adversary tradecraft target vulnerable areas to achieve their objectives. Threats can originate at the endpoint to attack the cloud, or cloud-based threats can attack vulnerable endpoints.
CrowdStrike has been recognized as a Leader in the Forrester Wave™ for Cybersecurity Incident Response Services. When it comes to incident response (IR), time is of the essence. The longer it takes to detect threat activity, investigate an incident and remediate systems across highly distributed environments, the deeper into the threat lifecycle the adversary gets.
