Item: CrowdStrike Falcon
Rating: 8
Author: Verified User

Use Cases and Deployment Scope

Falcon was installed on all systems in an effort to support attacks. We were recently the victim of an attack and needed to quickly recover and get systems back up and running. CrowdStrike helped us do that securely.

Pros and Cons

Stops breaches.
Identifies unauthorized systems and applications, and monitors the use of privileged user accounts anywhere in the environment.

Install limitations - Windows XP not capable.

Return on Investment

Allowed us to safely reconnect machines onto the network.
Give us the piece of mind to continue business.

Alternatives Considered

McAfee Advanced Threat Defense

McAfee did not stop the attack we received. We hope that Crowdstrike proves that it can going forward.

Support Rating

So far it's been great. Giving us the piece of mind that our systems are safe. Until it detects a known threat we won't see it in action. Just like any insurance we hope to never have to use it, but glad it's there.
