CrowdStrike launches fully-managed identity threat solution
CrowdStrike Holdings, a provider of cloud-delivered protection of endpoints, cloud workloads, identity and data, has introduced Falcon Identity Threat Protection Complete, a fully-managed identity threat protection solution.
The suite brings together the Falcon Identity Threat Protection module and Falcon Complete managed service to deliver identity threat prevention and IT policy enforcement, with expert management, monitoring and remediation.
According to the 2022 CrowdStrike Global Threat Report, nearly 80% of cyberattacks leverage identity-based attacks to compromise legitimate credentials and use techniques like lateral movement to quickly evade detection. Defending against identity-based attacks requires a mix of technology and human expertise, ensuring organisations can respond swiftly to these threats.
“Today’s adversaries are amazingly adept at obtaining and abusing stolen credentials, taking advantage of blind spots in legacy systems, contractor systems and other unmanaged devices to gain a foothold into an organisation and blend in undetected. This is increasingly problematic as it relates to ransomware campaigns," said Thomas Etheridge, Senior VP, services at CrowdStrike.
"Organisations need to adapt their defences to stay a step ahead of adversaries. As an MDR leader, CrowdStrike continues to innovate in the market to address the ever-evolving threat landscape."
MDR stands for managed detection and response.
Etheridge added that Falcon Identity Threat Protection Complete enables organisations to "get full visibility into identity-based threats and respond to them in real-time, preventing attacks from progressing."
Falcon Identity Threat Protection Complete can:
Stop identity-driven attacks
Receive automated protection and real-time detection from Falcon Identity Threat Protection, augmented with expert incident response from Falcon Complete.

CrowdStrike’s experts learn an organisation’s identity protection needs, via an onboarding process, and immediately deploy policies aligned with best practices and the organisation's unique compliance, business and technical requirements.
CrowdStrike stands strongly behind its breach protection capabilities. Falcon Complete comes with a Breach Prevention Warranty* to cover costs should a breach occur within the protected environment.
