I use CrowdStrike Falcon Cloud Security primarily for endpoint protection, including detection and response. It acts like a modern antivirus, automatically detecting and responding to threats based on defined policies. Additionally, it offers a vulnerability management module, highlighting machine vulnerabilities based on the number of managed machines.

Enhances the overall safety of our company's environment from cyber threats
What is our primary use case?
What is most valuable?
The most valuable feature of CrowdStrike Falcon Cloud Security is its lightweight sensor, taking minimal space and not impacting server performance. The centralized console is a huge advantage, letting me manage everything from one place. It also allows running scripts directly on machines through the portal, making it highly convenient.
What needs improvement?
In terms of improvement, it would be more convenient if there was an easier way to install CrowdStrike, perhaps through better integration with Active Directory. This could automate the installation process for new machines in the environment.
For how long have I used the solution?
I have been using CrowdStrike Falcon Cloud Security since 2020.
What do I think about the stability of the solution?
CrowdStrike Falcon Cloud Security is highly stable, with minimal false positives and performance issues. It operates smoothly without requiring much intervention.
What do I think about the scalability of the solution?
CrowdStrike Falcon Cloud Security is scalable. While installation is manual on each machine, it is easy to deploy on any number of machines, and their console makes it simple to manage them all. CrowdStrike Falcon Cloud Security is widely used in our company, managing endpoint security on almost every device. The user base is around 50,000 plus.

We can easily monitor and manage security through their user-friendly interface. The installation and setup of CrowdStrike Falcon Cloud Security are very easy and require a good internet connection on your machine.
What's my experience with pricing, setup cost, and licensing?
CrowdStrike Falcon Cloud Security is not cheap but it is worth the money. It simplifies administration by handling both vulnerability and endpoint security with just one sensor installation.

Highly scalable, stable, and offers excellent technical support
What is our primary use case?
I use Falcon Cloud Security as our primary EDR solution, integrated with Splunk for alert management.

This allows us to ensure we are not being targeted and provides insights into potential threats to our environment.

Its precise visibility allows us to see everything entering and leaving our environment, enabling us to effectively mitigate attacks and respond to potential security incidents.

Falcon's comprehensive and technical approach aligns well with our SOC's needs.
How was the initial setup?
Deployment is generally straightforward, but like many tools, it takes time to fine-tune and achieve optimal configuration.
What's my experience with pricing, setup cost, and licensing?
While I have heard that Falcon Cloud Security can be expensive, I believe the investment is justified for the peace of mind it provides.
