CrowdStrike’s AI-powered Falcon Platform stopped 13 of 13 protection scenarios spanning every stage of an attack, without relying on prior knowledge or legacy signatures

AUSTIN, Texas – September 20, 2023 – CrowdStrike (Nasdaq: CRWD), announced its results in Round 5 of the MITRE Engenuity ATT&CK® Evaluations: Enterprise. In this latest round, the CrowdStrike Falcon® Platform achieved 100% coverage scores across protection, visibility, and analytic detections, an industry-first, never achieved on any previous MITRE Engenuity ATT&CK Enterprise evaluation.

As the leader in AI-powered cybersecurity, the CrowdStrike Falcon platform stopped 13 of 13 protection scenarios spanning every stage of an attack, without relying on prior knowledge or legacy signatures. The evaluation demonstrated the power of a modern, AI-powered platform, rigorously testing CrowdStrike’s pioneering EDR, XDR, identity protection, and threat intelligence capabilities, all delivered through a single, powerful agent that consolidates point products to stop breaches.

In this latest round of evaluations, the MITRE Engenuity ATT&CK team chose to emulate the tactics, techniques and procedures (TTPs) of Turla, which CrowdStrike classifies as VENOMOUS BEAR, a sophisticated Russia-based adversary assessed to be attributable to the Federal Security Service (FSB) of the Russian Federation and known for its targeted intrusions, innovative stealth and its adaptability and willingness to evolve behaviors and tools to achieve campaign objectives.

As the pioneer of cloud-native Endpoint Detection and Response, the CrowdStrike Falcon platform empowers customers to stop breaches. MITRE Engenuity’s ATT&CK® Evaluation: Enterprise further validates CrowdStrike’s market leadership and superior customer outcomes with 100% visibility and 100% analytic detection coverage across all 19 steps and 143 tested substeps of VENOMOUS BEAR’s tactics and techniques, validating the platform’s superior efficacy and deep context for faster, better security outcomes.

“CrowdStrike is the foundational cybersecurity platform for the modern AI and cloud powered world. Hitting the 100% coverage hat trick across protection, visibility, and detection in MITRE’s evaluation validates the superior security outcomes we deliver across every stage of an attack,” said Michael Sentonas, President of CrowdStrike. “We’re proud to break new ground in this evaluation, achieving a “perfect three” across MITRE’s coverage categories, and demonstrating our platform’s AI-powered protection and industry-leading visibility and detection to stop breaches faster, with absolute accuracy, and far less time and effort.”
