Resilient cybersecurity posture can only be achieved with a full understanding of your internal and external attack surface. CrowdStrike Falcon® Surface builds on our award-winning adversary intelligence with cutting-edge external attack surface management (EASM) capabilities for a complete picture of known and unknown externally exposed assets, all delivered via the unified CrowdStrike Falcon® platform.
Cybercriminals continuously adapt to stay a step ahead of the organizations they target. Over more than a decade, CrowdStrike has carefully tracked the evolution of eCrime tactics and capabilities and codified them in more than 4,900 intelligence reports. Today’s threat landscape is dominated by sophisticated ransomware operators and data extortionists that are supported by a robust and increasingly specialized market-based ecosystem of criminal service providers.
At CrowdStrike, we’re always looking for new ways to share the power of CrowdStrike Falcon® LogScale, our log management and observability solution. The latest advancement to Falcon LogScale, previously known as Humio, is adding Corelight demo data to the Falcon LogScale Community Edition.
Eighty percent of modern attacks are identity-driven. Why would an attacker hack into a system when they can simply use stolen credentials to masquerade as an approved user and log in to the target organization? Once inside, attackers increasingly target Microsoft Active Directory because it holds the proverbial keys to the kingdom, providing broad access to the systems, applications, resources and data that adversaries exploit in their attacks.
With the end of the year fast approaching, many of us are looking forward to a well-deserved break. However, security practitioners and security leaders worldwide are bracing themselves for what has become a peak period for novel and disruptive threats. In 2020, the holiday season was marked by the SUNBURST incident, and in 2021 the world grappled with Log4Shell.
Time and again, analyst reports, independent tests and numerous other awards and acknowledgements affirm CrowdStrike is a leader in cybersecurity. Why is this important? Because when CrowdStrike is #1, it’s our customers who win. But to us, the best validation of the power of the CrowdStrike Falcon® platform comes from our customers themselves. We are proud to have earned the trust of so many organizations — over 20,000 customers and counting — around the world.
When the CrowdStrike Services team conducts a proactive security engagement, such as a Cybersecurity Maturity Assessment or Tabletop Exercise, it often uses CrowdStrike Falcon® Spotlight to identify what vulnerabilities exist in the environment. Unfortunately, this can be a disheartening experience, as many organizations we see have millions, even tens of millions, of unpatched vulnerabilities. It’s typical to see at least a quarter of those listed with a CVSS rating of Critical.
If you run CrowdStrike Falcon® LogScale, previously known as Humio, locally or on-premises, one of your first steps is to configure local storage so that LogScale has a persistent data store where it can send logs. If you’re running LogScale as a cluster setup, then you’ll have some data replication as a function of how LogScale manages the data. However, even with that replication, you’ll probably still want something outside of your local infrastructure for resiliency.
