Compromise Assessment

The CrowdStrike® Compromise Assessment is designed to identify ongoing or past attacker activity in an organization’s environment. It leverages the Services team’s decades of experience in responding to intrusions by the most advanced attackers, the powerful CrowdStrike Falcon® platform, industry-leading cyber threat intelligence and 24/7 threat hunting to deliver the most comprehensive assessment of an organization’s IT environment, answering the critical question: “Has my organization been breached?”

The Challenge

Traditional cybersecurity solutions fail to identify today’s advanced persistent threats, allowing attackers to go undetected while they move laterally across your systems exfiltrating data and intellectual property.

 Silent Failure

Silent Failure

For many organizations, the time to detection for an intrusion or attack can be prolonged due to blind spots and silent failure of their current cybersecurity solutions.

Breakout Time

Breakout Time

Today’s sophisticated attackers can breach your network and breakout across your systems in as little as 20 minutes to achieve lateral movement without detection.

Tactics

Tactics

The threat landscape continues to evolve with stealthy, sophisticated attacks regularly evading the security technology and expertise of many organizations.

The Benefits of a Compromise Assessment

Minimize Dwell Time

Learn if attackers have breached your defenses and are moving unnoticed in your environment.

Reduce Risk

Receive a thorough analysis that reduces the risk of attackers stealing financial assets, customer data or intellectual property.

Improve Security

Proactively identify ineffective security practices that are putting your organization at greater risk.

The Approach

It is clear that experiencing a cyberattack against your organization is not simply a question of “if” but rather “when.” Achieving cybersecurity readiness requires a new detection and response strategy, one focused on proactively hunting for evidence of existing or past compromise.
