eBook: The CrowdStrike Security Cloud

Transforming Security for Today’s Modern Cloud Business

Upheaval is arguably one of the best words there is to describe the effects of recent events on enterprises in 2020. As quarantine restrictions forced workers remote, it accelerated the growth of both telecommuting and cloud service adoption. The result was a new proving point for the power of cloud computing and the criticality of securing and supporting both cloud applications and a remote workforce.

Gartner has already predicted that end-user spending on cloud services will grow more than 18% globally in 2021 . As enterprises shift more of their resources and attention to the cloud, having a cloud-native security platform that can properly secure cloud-native architectures and empower the development practices of DevOps culture is crucial.

The CrowdStrike Security Cloud is the world’s largest unified, threat-centric data fabric, powering the next generation of protection and elite threat hunting to stop breaches.

The CrowdStrike Security Cloud correlates trillions of security events per day with indicators of attack, the industry’s leading threat intelligence and enterprise telemetry from across customer endpoints, workloads, identities, DevOps, IT assets and configurations.
