What is one effect of Sensor Visibility exclusions?

Sensor Visibility exclusions specifically refer to the capability of the CrowdStrike sensor to be restricted from collecting data from certain paths or directories on a host system. When exclusion criteria are applied, the sensor effectively stops all collection activity for those specified paths. This action leads to improved host performance by reducing the resource strain on the system that might otherwise be caused by continuous data collection across those paths.

By limiting the areas from which the sensor gathers information, it reduces the overhead associated with data processing and can enhance the system’s speed and responsiveness. This aspect makes it particularly beneficial for high-performance environments or when particular paths do not require monitoring due to either their low-risk status or other operational considerations.

The other options do not accurately reflect the core function of Sensor Visibility exclusions, further reinforcing the correctness of this choice as the only viable effect in the context described.
