CrowdStrike Falcon Cloud Security Reviews

I am working for an MSSP. We use CrowdStrike on a daily basis for different clients across the globe for security purposes and for monitoring and remediating threats.

We have installed agents on the machines of employees in different organizations. We monitor their activities and block several applications. For example, if an organization does not want its employees to use WhatsApp on company-provided laptops, we block such applications. We also monitor malicious activities. If an employee downloads a file from the internet that is not legitimate, such as a virus or malware, we connect to the machine, remove all the files, and run different scans to ensure nothing is harmed.

Additionally, we use it for inventory purposes. At the end of the year, for audit and compliance, I gather information about how many devices, servers, and workstations we have and what their types are.

It helps us by automatically blocking certain applications or activities. We can prevent employees from copying data or attaching any personal USB devices to company machines, thus avoiding malware transfer or data theft. We can block USBs and unwanted applications. It automatically blocks and remediates malicious activities, so we do not have to do regular checks.

We give MDR services to many clients and extend the basic capabilities with these modules.

The automation capabilities that the tool has in order to automate responses and actions.

It's quite easy to use, as I understand the feedback from the team.

I use the solution in my company to collect information about protecting the endpoint, configuration assessment, and vulnerability assessment.

The solution's most valuable feature is its threat emulation part, but there are many other important features for cybersecurity security, including endpoint protection. However, vulnerability management is for prevention, and so on.

We are a small company using CrowdStrike Falcon Cloud Security for next-generation endpoint security and antivirus protection. We do not have dedicated threat hunters on the platform and primarily use it for endpoint protection.

CrowdStrike Falcon Cloud Security helps us ensure that our endpoints are protected, which was essential for achieving the Cyber Essentials Plus certification. It also allows us to demonstrate to partners that we are diligent about protecting both our data and theirs.

I have been using CrowdStrike Falcon Cloud Security extensively for maintaining endpoint security. It is mainly used to protect systems against malicious binaries. In our cloud environment, we use it by deploying agents on our cloud instances operating in AWS and GCP to protect these instances from malicious binaries.

The solution has significantly enhanced our incident response times when dealing with malware or possible malicious file activities. It allows me to log into machines and pull copies of suspected files, eliminating the need to physically obtain the machines for analysis.

We are using CrowdStrike Falcon for endpoint protection across the organization.

I think the UI could be improved, but the technical support said CrowdStrike will improve the UI in the near future. But right now, it’s so messy.

I use the solution in my company primarily for endpoint detection and response. Our company has multiple endpoints at different levels, and this is basically to detect anomalies. At the back end, we have a Splunk Data Lake, where all the data goes. We use the same for alerting and monitoring purposes, on the basis of which we take action. The tool is basically used in combination with Splunk and other tools that we have in our company.

I am not part of the current monitoring team, so I do not know how they feel about the tool. I am sharing information related to the tool based on the feedback and on my experience deploying it four to five years ago.

I would not say the tool's integration capabilities were straightforward because the complexity depends on the volume of the data. I am talking about petabytes of data, so sometimes, the integration part is not so straightforward. I would say we have had our own share of issues. All in all, we were able to manage it in the long run. I tried to integrate the issue with Splunk Enterprise Security and Splunk Data Lake, too. I am not a user of Splunk, but I have just implemented it to support my customers, who are the primary users of the data.

I sell and resell CrowdStrike Falcon Cloud Security as part of my company's cybersecurity portfolio for endpoint detection platforms.

CrowdStrike Falcon Cloud Security assists in detecting malware and provides effective security solutions without the need for hardware servers, saving resources on infrastructure.
