CrowdStrike Falcon Cloud Security Reviews & Product Details

Crowdstrike Falcon Cloud Security is the only CNAPP to stop breaches in the cloud Built for today’s hybrid and multi-cloud environments, Falcon Cloud Security protects the entire cloud attack surface - from code to runtime - by combining continuous agentless visibility with real-time detection and response. At runtime, Falcon Cloud Security delivers best-in-class cloud workload protection and real-time cloud detection and response (CDR) to stop active threats across hybrid environments. Integrated with the CrowdStrike Falcon platform, it correlates signals across endpoint, identity, and cloud to detect sophisticated cross-domain attacks that point solutions miss—enabling teams to respond faster and stop breaches in progress. To reduce risk before attacks occur, Falcon Cloud Security also delivers agentless-driven posture management that proactively shrinks the cloud attack surface. Unlike typical solutions, Crowdstrike enriches cloud risk detections with adversary intelligence and graph-based context, enabling security teams to prioritize exploitable exposures and prevent breaches before they happen. Customers using Falcon Cloud Security consistently see measurable results: 89% faster cloud detection and response 100x reduction in false positives by prioritizing exploitable, business-critical risk 83% reduction in cloud security licenses due to elimination of redundant tools

"Threat and remediation ready Solution by CrowdStrike"

4.5/5

"Marrying High Performance Cloud Infrastructure With High Performance Cloud Securtity"

5/5

What do you like best about CrowdStrike Falcon Cloud Security?

Crowdstrike Cloud Security has enabled more profound insights and visibility into processes running within our cloud infrastructure. The product and the people at Crowdstrike have both helped drive value by highlighting what may be a true risk and fine-tuning the alerting thresholds of what should be allowed and disallowed to run on our systems. With Crowdstrike Cloud Security implemented across our entire cloud environment, we now have a trusted sense of what is going on 24/7 with continuous monitoring + Crowdstrike's Overwatch. It is also reassuring that we can automatically prevent/kill any processes which are deemed to be anomalous and/or suspicious behavior. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about CrowdStrike Falcon Cloud Security?

There is a lot functionality within Crowdstrike to take advantage of and distribute across a security team. This is not necessarily a dislike, but is a very powerful and useful tool that should be staffed accordingly to unlock the full value of which it offers. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is CrowdStrike Falcon Cloud Security solving and how is that benefiting you?

Crowdstrike provides visibility into processes running on our cloud infrastructure to ensure that our company, data and customer's data are best protected from adversaries. In addition to this, we are able to detect any attempts of container drifts, lateral movements, breakouts, etc. We combine the visibility that Crowdstrike Cloud Security detections alert us on and will customize rulesets based on the investigative outcome. This helps fine-tune the tool to alert more on what is dangerous and take a more passive stance on what should be deemed more normal behavior. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Powerful, light and safe"

4.5/5

What do you like best about CrowdStrike Falcon Cloud Security?

It is a very complete EDR, capable of identifying and stopping most threats, with a very light agent that consumes few resources. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about CrowdStrike Falcon Cloud Security?

The management console is complicated and to allow a user to access several tenants it is necessary to generate email aliases. In another case, permission management should go through support, which is unfeasible for day-to-day work. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
