The CrowdStrike 2025 Global Threat Report highlights the ongoing threat of identity-based attacks. Adversaries are increasingly exploiting stolen credentials to evade detection, and 79% of detections overall were classified as malware-free. Valid account abuse became the primary initial access method in 35% of cloud intrusions. The report also shares that access broker advertisements rose by 50% year-over-year, indicating a rise in demand for valid credentials and other forms of access.

In recent years, Transformer models have been the backbone of the revolution within the artificial intelligence sector. They are the basis of large language models (LLMs) and responsible for LLMs’ ability to understand and generate text of a human-like quality. Transformers are able to learn long-range interactions between words and sentences, allowing them to retain high-level concepts and insights into their training data.

Since CrowdStrike’s acquisition of Bionic, we have been embedding application security posture management (ASPM) capabilities into CrowdStrike Falcon Cloud Security, creating a unified solution that bridges the gap between proactive security for cloud security teams and cloud runtime protection for security operations. We are excited to share new ASPM updates in Falcon Cloud Security, built to help teams detect and respond faster to today’s cloud-focused adversaries.

Cross-domain attacks have become a defining challenge in modern cybersecurity, with adversaries exploiting gaps across endpoints, identity systems, and cloud environments to achieve their objectives. These sophisticated attacks use stealthy, malware-free techniques and legitimate tools, making them exceptionally difficult to detect and disrupt.
