CrowdStrike and Stream Security: Full-Spectrum Threat Detection and Response

Enhancing Cloud Security from Detection to Response

As cyber attackers become more sophisticated, leveraging a multitude of techniques to breach security defenses, organizations must have visibility into the entire attack storyline. This need has driven the strategic integration between Stream Security and CrowdStrike, combining their strengths to offer detection and response capabilities from the cloud layer down to the workload level.

Stream Security's Cloud Detection and Response

Stream Security's CloudTwin® continuously monitors cloud activities and configurations in real-time. The platform uncovers adversary intent by modeling all cloud interactions, revealing detailed attack storylines and exploitability according to the unique environment properties. This approach allows organizations to detect and respond to threats with the necessary context, eliminating blind spots during attacks and providing a live cloud-state view of the environment.

CrowdStrike's Endpoint and Workload Defense

On the other hand, CrowdStrike excels in preventing threats in real-time with its industry-leading set of endpoint and workload telemetry, threat intelligence, and AI-powered analytics. CrowdStrike's Spotlight vulnerability management solution further enhances security by helping teams detect and manage susceptible assets in the cloud, ensuring that security teams are aware of their exposure.

Stream Security + CrowdStrike: A Powerful Integration

The integration between Stream Security and CrowdStrike brings a unique approach to detecting and responding to cloud threats. Stream Security uncovers activities at the cloud layer, including behavior patterns and identity correlations, while CrowdStrike detects threats at the workload level, revealing what attackers are doing inside instances. This integration provides security teams with the ability to:

  1. Uncover the Entire Attack Storyline: Understand the complete trajectory of an attack from the cloud level down to the workload level. This integration reveals the complete list of infected assets, allowing teams to respond effectively.
  2. Reveal Attack Paths: By understanding the attack trajectory from the initial foothold to the targeted sensitive assets, organizations can see the entire attack storyline, unveiling the list of infected assets and their impact.
  3. Prioritize Threats: Focus on the most critical threats based on their potential impact on the organization's most sensitive data. This prioritization considers the threat actor's foothold and the vulnerabilities within the environment.
  4. Uncover the Adversary's Intent: Immediately understand the impact of every configuration change made by an adversary without needing a new scan. This capability allows teams to assess the impact of every activity and every change in real-time.
  5. Outpace Adversaries: By revealing the attack path from any suspicious asset to the organization's crown jewels, security teams can predict and counteract adversaries' next moves, staying ahead of potential threats.

Conclusion

The integration between Stream Security and CrowdStrike offers a solution that seals every cloud attack all the way from accurate detection to effective response. By integrating cloud-level anomaly detection with workload-level threat detection and vulnerability management, this collaboration provides security teams with the tools they need to unveil the adversary's intent, reveal the attack’s exploitability, and predict their next move. With complete visibility, prioritized threat response, and proactive attack path analysis, organizations can outpace the adversary.
