Cloud Workflow Protection With Easy Setup, Strong Protection
CrowdStrike follows an internal guideline for most of its products called the 1-10-60 rule. That rule states that good cybersecurity in dynamic environments such as healthcare requires that attacks are detected within one minute, triaged within 10 minutes and mitigated within 60 minutes. That does not give cybercriminals, who can sometimes linger in unprotected systems for months on end, enough time to launch any major attack, outside of possibly compromising a single endpoint.
Setting up the Falcon platform is easy. It automatically discovers existing cloud workload deployments and can do so without installing an agent by using Amazon Web Services EC2 instances, Google Cloud Platform compute instances and Microsoft Azure virtual machines.
You can point Falcon at clouds of all types, including public, private and hybrids, hosted by Google, Amazon, Microsoft or others. It also works for containerized environments.
In testing, it was able to detect even small changes within a cloud infrastructure and analyze whether that change was normal or potentially malicious. Potentially harmful changes can be automatically fixed or put on hold and sent to staff for further analysis.
