Join us, and leverage our expertise to utilize best practices built up over years of implementing and managing thousands of cloud customers across multiple cloud platforms.
This year’s Cyber Intrusion Services Casebook focuses on in-depth digital forensics, incident response (IR) and remediation services performed on behalf of actual CrowdStrike clients. Real-life examples drawn from notable CrowdStrike Services IR engagements in 2016 — including the now-infamous hack of the Democratic National Committee (DNC) —are covered with an emphasis on best practices organizations can follow to identify and eject attackers before a devastating breach occurs.

One of the biggest challenges to effectively stopping breaches lies in sifting through vast amounts of data to find the subtle clues that indicate an attack is imminent or underway. As modern computer systems generate billions of events daily, the amount of data to analyze can reach petabytes. Compounding the problem, the data is often unstructured, discrete and disconnected. As a result, organizations struggle to determine how individual events may be connected to signal an impending attack.

The frequency of “mega breaches” continues to rise at an alarming rate. In fact, crippling incidents involving tens of millions of customer records, theft of highly valuable intellectual property, and related criminal activity have become commonplace.
This report asserts that many such breaches could be prevented by deploying next-generation endpoint protection technology in concert with an aggressive proactive hunting strategy. This potent combination provides the most effective means to reduce attack surfaces and defend against advanced adversaries.

A large and growing number of security solutions are being touted as the "next generation" in cyber defense, and endpoint protection products are no exception. This has led to widespread confusion about which solutions have truly incorporated next-generation technologies and approaches, and which ones are making empty claims or half-hearted attempts.
CrowdStrike developed this white paper to help you sift through the hype and uncover the critical elements that a true next-generation endpoint security solution must include.

Once a “consumer-only” problem, Ransomware now has an established business case for profitability, and that’s driving criminals to expand their operations and hunt for more lucrative prey. As a result, commercial enterprises and other large organizations are increasingly in the cross-hairs.
Consider these facts:
This white paper dives into the inner workings of ransomware, its perpetrators and how they are evolving to maximize profits. You’ll also learn how companies are fighting back, and review best practices for protecting your organization from becoming another victim of electronic extortion.
Closing the gap for the potential of a targeted attack and becoming a breach statistic is an ongoing challenge for organizations of all types and sizes. The adoption of continuous security information and event monitoring (SIEM) offers organizations a more holistic, intelligent and comprehensive approach to reduce the window of discovery.
Gartner’s paper - Use SIEM for Targeted Attack Detection - details research on how IT security leaders can improve targeted attack detection capabilities using SIEM tools and appropriate investments in expertise, processes and complementary technologies.
The latest advanced threats take advantage of the flat and open internal network. Once they get past traditional firewall defenses at the perimeter, it’s very easy for them to spread and extract valuable trade secrets and sensitive data.
Download the “Protecting Your Network from the Inside Out” white paper, which details the emergence of a new class of firewall that helps address this critical security gap—the Internal Segmentation Firewall (ISFW). Deployed at key strategic points in the network, it identifies and contains threats before they spread.
ISFWs can be deployed rapidly with minimum disruption while keeping up with the multi-gigabit speeds of internal networks. They offer instant visibility and critical protection that can protect internal data/assets if a threat gets past the perimeter.
The combination of cloud technologies and ever-increasing worker mobility have required firewalls to expand their reach from securing applications and network traffic to address the entire broad and complex threat surface.
Gartner’s paper One Brand of Firewall is a Best Practice for Most Enterprises details research that enables you to learn more about the importance of a unified security posture:
The risk of a breach is growing rapidly due to more devises and more applications hitting your infrastructure. We asked security experts about their biggest concerns for advanced persistent threats and application based attacks.
Two Security experts reveal their challenges and share advice on advance persistent threats. Read what they have to say about:
The rise of BYOD and the Internet of Things (IoT) are bringing new flexibility and functionality to organizations of all sizes and unfortunately, also new WiFi vulnerabilities and attack vectors that put critical assets within your network at risk.
Download Wireless Defense Strategies in the IoT Era to learn how critical it is to deploy more integrated security at the access layer for comprehensive protection that spans the full breadth of the network.
Regardless of an organization’s security maturity model, when the growing level of sophisticated attackers and threats collide with the ever evolving and expanding network environment, a multifaceted defense approach is no longer a luxury, but a necessity.
This white paper - Countering Evolving Cyber Threats - outlines clear prioritization of solutions and the key areas that should be addressed in order to minimize the impact of potential threats while filling in the gaps that span across all the access vectors.
Increasing the strength of your company’s defense against the latest persistent threats means providing coverage across the entire attack chain: prevention, detection and mitigation. This checklist will help you assess your current Advanced Threat Protection solution needs through a baseline set of requirements, including:
