SE Labs recognizes the efficacy of cloud-native
CrowdStrike Falcon in stopping targeted and fileless attacks across
the entire kill chain
CrowdStrike® Inc. (Nasdaq: CRWD), a leader in cloud-delivered
endpoint protection, today announced that CrowdStrike Falcon® was
named winner of the Best New Endpoint category in SE Labs' 2019
Annual Report. This recognition marks yet another third-party
validation for the power of CrowdStrike Falcon – the only
cloud-native, single-agent endpoint security platform on the
market.
Evaluating solutions against a full spectrum of targeted attack
techniques, SE Labs bases the criteria of their annual report on a
combination of third-party public testing, private assessments and
feedback from their testing teams. The Best New Endpoint category
was based on SE Labs’ assessment of Falcon using criteria such as
usability and efficacy of the solution and vendor engagement in the
market, and involved testing the platform against both standard
malware and fileless attacks.
The CrowdStrike Falcon platform was built as a transformative
cloud-native solution to establish a new standard in security.
CrowdStrike’s unique approach starts with its intelligent
lightweight agent that enables frictionless deployment of the
platform at scale. It enables customers to rapidly adopt technology
across any workload running on multiple endpoints. The agent sends
data to the cloud, while retaining local detection and prevention
capabilities, providing a consumer-grade security experience to the
enterprise without burdening the end-user.
“In today’s complex threat landscape, it’s imperative that
today’s IT decision makers have information on the best solutions.
SE Labs prides itself on being able to provide guidance to security
teams to make more informed decisions to help stop cyber threats,”
said Simon Edwards, director of SE Labs Ltd. “When it comes to
endpoint protection, CrowdStrike is a clear market leader.
CrowdStrike Falcon is able to provide customers with the speed and
precision needed to protect endpoints and stop frequent
cyberattacks.”
Today, the Falcon platform integrates 10 cloud modules that span
multiple capabilities, including endpoint security, security
operations and threat intelligence to deliver comprehensive breach
protection against today's sophisticated attacks. CrowdStrike’s
innovative Threat Graph® technology processes, correlates, and
analyzes over two trillion endpoint-related events per week in real
time and maintains an index of events to stay ahead of future
threats. Threat Graph continuously looks for malicious activity
with graph analytics powered by cloud-scale AI, while feeding
information to the Falcon platform. This creates a powerful network
of crowdsourced intelligence that provides actionable insights to
customers. The platform enables intelligent, dynamic automation at
scale to detect threats and stop breaches.
“CrowdStrike Falcon was built to provide customers with an
innovative approach that leverages the power of the cloud through a
single, intelligent agent to defeat the adversary and, ultimately,
to stop breaches. Winning the new endpoint category award from SE
Labs is especially important to us because it validates our ability
to not only protect against malware, but also defend against more
sophisticated threats that go beyond malware with fileless and
other advanced techniques. This award showcases the value that our
customers see in our single solution that combines next-generation
antivirus (NGAV), endpoint detection and response (EDR) and
proactive managed threat hunting to deliver maximum protection,”
said Dan Larson, vice president of product marketing at
CrowdStrike.
This August, CrowdStrike was positioned by Gartner, Inc. in the
Leaders quadrant of the “Magic Quadrant for Endpoint Protection
Platforms.”i The report, which evaluates vendors based on
completeness of vision and their ability to execute, positioned
CrowdStrike furthest for completeness of vision in the entire Magic
