This announcement presents customers with two choices: Stay on Windows 10 for the time being, or begin planning for an enterprise-wide upgrade to Windows 11. For customers that rely on Microsoft to protect their attack surfaces, migrating operating systems isn’t only an IT decision — it’s also a security decision. Microsoft security features, including Microsoft Defender, are delivered as built-in components of Microsoft operating systems.

Since CrowdStrike’s founding in 2011, we have pioneered the use of artificial intelligence (AI) and machine learning (ML) in cybersecurity to solve our customers’ most pressing challenges. Our application of AI has fit into three practical categories.

After completing extensive tests designed to evaluate the tampering resistance of enterprise security solutions, the CrowdStrike Falcon® platform has achieved certification in the AV-Comparatives Anti-Tampering Certification Test 2023 for the Windows 10 operating system.

Forrester has named CrowdStrike a Leader in The Forrester Wave™: Managed Detection and Response (MDR), Q2 2023 which recognizes how CrowdStrike’s “exceptional” Falcon Complete MDR service “blends products, platforms, and services seamlessly for customers.” Forrester evaluated 13 top MDR providers based on the strengths of their current offering, strategy and market presence.

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.
