Presales Consultant at Cyber Knight Technologies FZ LLC
Unified threat analysis has strengthened detection accuracy and accelerated incident response
The multi-platform analysis in the product is very effective, as it helps to identify threats through powerful scanning and detection, and in response as well. Comparing to other products, this product performs very well in terms of stability and detection, which is important because other products may encounter problems in operations. This product is powerful in detection, which is the most important part because any customer wants a solution that detects what's happening. This is the real strength of CrowdStrike Falcon Sandbox. It's really powerful in detection; it detects any minor change, any minor injection in the data or whatsoever. The visibility is really good. CrowdStrike Falcon Sandbox has one unified platform to manage everything, which is really nice. It has one agent and one console. One agent to install in the machine, and this one agent will give capabilities. I can have visibility into one console, and through this one console, I can do multiple things and manage multiple solutions within CrowdStrike Falcon Sandbox. I know that the memory forensic feature in CrowdStrike Falcon Sandbox is well-regarded, as CrowdStrike Falcon Sandbox is really famous for this. It's one of the most well-known companies in forensics, and many customers are getting CrowdStrike Falcon Sandbox involved when they are in threat or when they face a threat. They do their forensics in a really good way, and they are reaching a very powerful result. I have experienced this with multiple customers who asked CrowdStrike Falcon Sandbox to interfere and do the forensics, knowing exactly what amount of harm or what amount of breach has been done into their network. CrowdStrike Falcon Sandbox can manage this and give them full visibility about what has been done, what has been remediated, and what has been lost. The API integrations they offer are extensive and improve threat analysis and collaboration in general, as they have a wide range of integrations with multiple products and multiple vendors, multiple solutions. Throughout the one year and a half, I didn't face any scenario with integrations except for the file monitoring for the AIX. This is the only case I have faced with them, as they don't support IBM AIX file monitoring. But aside from this, their integration spectrum is really wide, really big, and strong, allowing them to integrate with multiple products.

Helps secure the infrastructure and control users with admin rights
There are many features that are currently missing. A customization option is required for certain policies. For instance, if we need to stop PowerShell scripting, we have to create a different policy for that. Being able to create a sub-level policy within a top-level policy would be good. Currently, no user-based policy option is available inside the EPM console. We can only create computer-based policies. The database is available, but there is a drawback in not being able to create local groups on the EPM console. We only have to depend on Active Directory. This limits infrastructure security as we depend on the Active Directory team to manage user groups. If they remove any users, we lose control. If we could create groups locally and block them or set specific policies, we would have more control. Local endpoint management is missing from the EPM site. Moreover, there is an issue with policies not running as expected when we make enhancements. We have to find multiple ways to whitelist applications or enhance policies.
