What is included in the "Falcon OverWatch" service?

The Falcon OverWatch service is a key component of the CrowdStrike Falcon platform, focusing specifically on proactive threat hunting. This service leverages a team of security experts who continuously monitor a client’s environment to identify and mitigate potential threats before they can cause significant harm. The dedicated analysts utilize advanced tools and methodologies to detect sophisticated attacks and anomalies that may bypass traditional security measures.

While automatic updates for all applications, data backup and recovery services, and basic antivirus protection are important elements of a comprehensive cybersecurity strategy, they do not fall under the specific offerings of Falcon OverWatch. The primary aim of this service is to provide ongoing surveillance and expert analysis, making it essential for organizations seeking to enhance their threat detection and response capabilities beyond standard security measures. This proactive approach allows organizations to stay ahead of cyber threats and improves their overall cybersecurity posture.
