What type of alerts signals an automated response in CrowdStrike Falcon?

Automated responses in CrowdStrike Falcon are primarily triggered by high-priority alerts that indicate immediate threats. These alerts signify potential security incidents requiring rapid action to mitigate risks before they can escalate. High-priority alerts are designed to highlight situations where there is a significant attack vector or a breach, prompting automated measures such as blocking files, isolating endpoints, or initiating other security protocols to protect the environment.

In contrast, general alerts that indicate low risk do not warrant immediate action since they represent less critical issues. Weekly summary alerts are informative and provide an overview of system activity but do not trigger any automated responses. Similarly, alerts that necessitate a full system shutdown might indicate severe threats, but they aren't categorized as automated responses; rather, they would be part of a more manual and deliberate incident response strategy. Consequently, high-priority alerts serve the purpose of ensuring timely interventions that safeguard the system.
