CrowdStrike vs. SentinelOne
Don’t settle for a product that’s hard to deploy, difficult to manage, and can’t stop breaches.
Why customers choose CrowdStrike over SentinelOne
SentinelOneWeak coverage, can’t stop attacks
- ×79% coverage in the latest MITRE Engenuity test, missing 30 sub-steps
- ×Supervised-ML detection engine misses advanced threats, including fileless and credential-based threats
- ×High false positive rate buries SOC teams in a mountain of alerts
- ×Anticipates missing threats, relying on “rollback” as an ineffective response that can’t guarantee remediation
The CrowdStrike difference
CrowdStrike Proven to stop breaches
CrowdStrike’s AI-powered Indicators of Attack (IOAs) and integrated threat intelligence deliver unmatched breach prevention and curated alert context, independently proven by MITRE with 100% detection and protection scores. We use unsupervised machine learning to find stealthy attacks and cut out false positives that drain your time.
SentinelOne Hard to maintain
- ×Multiple agents required for full platform capabilities, delaying rollout times and complicating module adoption
- ×Heavy agent consumes significant resources, potentially impacting endpoint performance
- ×Manual agent updates drive up operational burden
- ×Manual exclusions required for software interoperability issues, creating blind spots for adversaries
- ×Reboots required for extensive false positive tuning
The CrowdStrike difference
CrowdStrike Effortless to operate
CrowdStrike’s single, lightweight agent deploys all platform modules and installs in minutes to hundreds of thousands of endpoints. Our automatic update process eliminates operational workload for customers and ensures every endpoint always has the latest capabilities and protection — no cumbersome tuning or reboots required.
SentinelOneWeak, disconnected point products
- ×Multiple disjointed consoles slow down investigation and response
- ×Lacks integrated cloud security modules (CSPM, CIEM, ASPM), leaving gaps for adversaries
- ×Limited in-house MDR creates homework for SOC teams
- ×Ineffective identity security module lacks behavioral baselining needed to catch credential abuse
- ×Poor industry validation raises doubts over efficacy
The CrowdStrike difference
CrowdStrike The platform for cybersecurity consolidation
CrowdStrike’s unified console reduces complexity and cost, integrating industry-leading capabilities across endpoint, identity, cloud, MDR, next-gen SIEM, data protection, exposure management, and threat intelligence. Our platform automatically correlates data across products into a unified incident workbench, streamlining investigations, and accelerating response.
Proven by MITRE
CrowdStrike dominated the last two MITRE ATT&CK evaluations — one open-book and one closed-book — scoring highest among all vendors tested and leaving SentinelOne in the dust.
