CrowdStrike Launches Falcon for AWS Security Incident Response

CrowdStrike has launched Falcon for AWS Security Incident Response, a new program designed to enhance cybersecurity for AWS customers by integrating CrowdStrike’s AI-native Falcon platform directly within AWS environments at preferred rates through the AWS Marketplace. This collaboration enables organizations to detect 96% more threats in half the time and investigate incidents 66% faster, significantly improving breach prevention and accelerating incident response in cloud settings. The program seamlessly combines CrowdStrike’s threat detection with AWS Security Incident Response’s automated triage and investigation workflows, providing a comprehensive solution that spans the entire incident lifecycle while reducing complexity and cost. Daniel Bernard, CrowdStrike’s chief business officer, emphasized the importance of speed in cybersecurity and the accessibility of AI-powered incident response, while AWS’s Hart Rossman highlighted the value of optimized pricing and integrated enterprise-grade security. The service allows AWS customers to activate protection on-demand, even during active incidents, facilitating immediate access to endpoint protection, threat intelligence, and identity security services. Beyond crisis management, Falcon for AWS Security Incident Response also supports continuous posture assessment and ongoing protection, addressing the evolving challenges of cloud security threats.
