Since 2020, CrowdStrike has increasingly observed big game hunting (BGH) threat actors deploying Linux versions of ransomware tools specifically designed to affect VMWare’s ESXi vSphere hypervisor (read Part 1 and Part 2 of this series).
CrowdStrike Falcon® LogScale provides a full range of dashboarding and live query capabilities out of the box. Sometimes, however, you’ll work in an environment where there are other solutions alongside LogScale. For example, let’s say your operations team takes an observability approach that includes metrics scraped by Prometheus, tracing with Tempo and dashboard visualizations with Grafana.
Cybersecurity, privacy and data flows will be key topics at this year’s G7 in Japan. Against this backdrop, it has been a year since last year’s amendments to the Act on Protection of Personal Information (APPI) introduced revised data breach reporting and cross-border data flow rules. Meanwhile, developments in the Asia-Pacific (APAC) region have introduced data localization obligations in a variety of countries.
The power of the CrowdStrike Falcon® platform lies in its ability to detect and protect customers from new and unknown threats by leveraging the power of the cloud and expertly built machine learning (ML) models. In real-world conditions and in independent third-party evaluations, Falcon’s on-sensor and cloud ML capabilities consistently achieve excellent results across Windows, Linux and macOS platforms.
Are you getting the most from your data? Collecting data from across your environment can provide security teams with the visibility needed to detect and respond to threats, but large volumes of data and alerts can be overwhelming and cause excessive noise. And, not all data is useful data — some details or feeds may be irrelevant for your teams, causing unnecessary complexity and bogging down infrastructure.
CrowdStrike is defining the future of cloud-native application protection platforms (CNAPP) with CrowdStrike Falcon® Cloud Security. As the industry’s most comprehensive agent-based and agentless cloud security platform, we stop cloud breaches. The 2023 Gartner® Market Guide for CNAPP shares that there are multiple CNAPP offerings in the market that meet the core requirements mentioned in the report. Vendors of these offerings are listed in the report as 26 Representative Vendors.
One set of valid employee credentials can provide an adversary with all they need to log into a business, move laterally, escalate privileges and achieve their goals — whether that’s removing access to accounts, terminating services, destroying data or deleting resources. Identity-based attacks are subtle, but destructive, and organizations must be on high alert for them. CrowdStrike reported 80% of cyberattacks now leverage stolen or compromised credentials.
Each day, enterprise and public sector IT teams face new challenges when managing hybrid work for networks of hundreds, or even thousands, of users. A more distributed workforce means an increased reliance on collaboration and productivity tools. It also requires a strong strategy to protect these systems against vulnerabilities and modern cyberattacks.
