CrowdStrike Falcon vs. Symantec Control Compliance Suite

It helps to detect and prevent malwares automatically which saves the response time to act. The machine learning and AI feature which helps to detect unusual behavioural based malwares which use defence evasion techniques. The fusion workflow feature which helps to automate the detection and blocking of less important files such as PUP/Adwares so the focus can be on real threats. The host logs are easy to filter and use which helps to do quick incident response

• Updates are seamless and rarely fail compared to past products
• The tool leverages the largest Cybersecurity threat database in the world
• The response to a potential threat or inquiry by the managed services team is lightning fast
• Extremely thorough responses from the managed services team on potential threats
• Onboarding quick and painless

Incentivized

• The Dashboard can become overwhelming at times, too much information to absorb
• Computers that may have made it out into the field without the endpoint sensor are very difficult to find
• As with all systems that rely on machine learning false positives occurr

so far no major breaches occurred in the organizations that we deployed CrowdStrike at. so for me that is the biggest win

I think it is a complete and very trustful XDR platform, with very few False Positives. It is very well supported by highly skilled professionals on all levels: from pre-sales engineers, Customer Account Managers and support engineers.

Support is generally pretty fast and gets right to the issue. We haven't had to use them much, fortunately, but the issues and questions we've had are usually answered quickly. The customer success manager/account manager you're assigned will also follow up with you on a regular cadence to ensure you're getting the most out of the subscription. There's not a whole lot of room to improve, other than the general confusion about what is/what is not covered in custom packages you're subscribed to. The initial purchase took much longer because of a package name changes and realignments of different modules into those packages.

CrowdStrike Falcon Endpoint certainly comes in with a slight price premium compared to other offerings, but when you're talking about your last line of defense against malware it's well worth it. From a feature perspective, many players offer similar feature sets but what sets CrowdStrike apart is the ease of implementation. The management is simplistic in nature for the items we managed on our own (we were using Falcon Complete which is a managed solution).

• Centralized resource management means we need less tools to do the same job.
• EDR data is massive and has to be factored into the overall cost of the product. You are exponentially punished for more devices.
• CS has allowed larger coverage over devices and has discovered massive pockets of no protections.
