Organizations today are embracing cloud-native technologies to increase time-to-market, scalability and cost savings. A big part of the cloud-native transition is moving legacy systems and architectures to the cloud. With this comes both complexity and new risks because modern applications are often composed of dozens of microservices, housed in containers and hosted on immutable, dynamically scaling platforms like Kubernetes.

CrowdStrike recently demonstrated the power of the Falcon platform and its integrated approach to providing robust protection by exposing all attack tactics used as part of the MITRE Engenuity ATT&CK Enterprise Evaluation released in April 2022. The evaluation focused on emulating two of today’s most sophisticated Russian-based threat groups: WIZARD SPIDER and VOODOO BEAR (Sandworm Team).
