Cybersecurity company CrowdStrike has announced the launch of its CloudStrike Falcon Complete Next-Gen MDR solution for managed detection and response (MDR).
The new solution expands MDR operations beyond native endpoint, identity and cloud security telemetry to other security operations centre operations. The tool promises to enable detection of threats up to 11 times faster than competing solutions.
CrowdStrike said Falcon Complete Next-Gen MDR can detect sophisticated threats across all critical data sources, and can also improve investigation, response and remediation capabilities to help stop breaches at their inception. The solution supports functionality including AI-powered incident creation, visualisation and investigation, and uses a single agent, single platform architecture to unify native and third-party data for comprehensive threat intelligence.
CrowdStrike Chief Global Services Officer Tom Etheridge said the company originally pioneered the MDR category to address the cybersecurity skills gap facing customers.
“Today, time is the greatest enemy. Security teams need to operate at the speed of the adversary to stop breaches. Falcon Complete Next-Gen MDR is the force multiplier that enables partners and customers to stay ahead of modern attacks and secure critical assets,” he said.
IDC Research VP of Security Services Craig Robinson added that the ability to ingest data form a range of sources is crucial for companies like CrowdStrike to be able to perform their role of finding and stopping attacks.
“Pairing the capabilities of Falcon Next-Gen SIEM to be able to properly ingest data regardless of the source, along with an expanding set of AI security use cases that properly correlates this data to detect attacks and speed up response times, is a key next-generation capability for the market to consider utilising,” he said.
