Crowdstrike Falcon EDR

For SpyCloud Compass.

🛡️ Enterprise Protection for CrowdStrike Falcon (EDR)

Malware-infected devices are a launchpad for identity-based threats: plaintext credentials, cookies, and tokens can be siphoned from endpoints and abused for ATO, session hijacking, and lateral movement. SpyCloud + CrowdStrike Falcon delivers the post-infection identity evidence your SOC needs to find compromised users and remediate fast – even when malware bypasses EDR or lands on unmanaged devices.

Integration page: https://spycloud.com/products/integrations/crowdstrike-falcon/

⚠️ Requirement

SpyCloud Compass license is required to use this integration with Crowdstrike Falcon EDR.

🚀 What you get

  • Post-infection visibility: See compromised endpoints and the identity artifacts criminals can exploit (credentials, cookies/tokens).
  • Detect bypass & blind spots: Identify infostealer malware that evaded EDR or infected unmanaged devices outside corporate control.
  • Automated containment: Isolate compromised endpoints and block ransomware entry points via Crowdstrike Falcon policies.
  • Operational workflows: Route alerts and cases to Slack, Jira, email, or your IR tooling for repeatable remediation.
💡

Bottom line: reduce MTTD/MTTR by acting on reliable identity evidence – not just process or network heuristics.

🧭 Quick start

  1. Connect SpyCloud post-infection identity data to Crowdstrike Falcon (via your established ingest/automation method).
  2. Validate detections by listing compromised endpoints and matched identity artifacts (hostnames, usernames, IPs, timestamps).
  3. Create policies/playbooks to quarantine endpoints, revoke sessions, and reset exposed credentials.
  4. Automate notifications (Slack/Jira/email) and ticketing to keep owners and responders aligned.

🔎 Investigate & act on real evidence

Focus on the identity signals that matter most:

  • Plaintext or previously exposed credentials tied to the infected host/user
  • Malware-sourced session artifacts: cookies/tokens enabling account abuse
  • Indicators of reuse/variations attackers can easily guess

Use Crowdstrike Falcon to:

  • 🔍 Locate impacted endpoints/users and pivot into host telemetry
  • 🧩 Correlate SpyCloud identity evidence with detections, process trees, and network activity
  • 🧯 Contain quickly: isolate endpoints, expire tokens, reset passwords, and enforce re-auth

🛠️ How it works

1) Detect – identify malware-infected devices & exposed identities

SpyCloud surfaces evidence from malware-infected devices (infostealer logs). This includes plaintext credentials and session artifacts that criminals actively resell and reuse.

2) Enrich – tie identity artifacts to endpoints/users

Match credentials, cookies, and tokens to your users and Falcon-managed hosts to understand blast radius and prioritize.

3) Contain – isolate & block

Use Falcon policies to isolate compromised endpoints and block further data exfiltration or lateral movement.

4) Remediate – reset & revoke

Reset exposed passwords, revoke sessions/tokens, and force re-authentication. Notify users and owners via Slack/Jira/email.

📊 Validation & reporting

  • Confirm compromised endpoint lists and identity matches are populating as expected
  • Track containment time, reset/revoke counts, and endpoint quarantine rate
  • Trend infection sources and identity artifact types (password vs. cookie/token)

Tip: Pair Crowdstrike Falcon’s response telemetry with SpyCloud’s identity evidence for clear “before/after” reporting.

🔗 Resources

✅ Expected outcomes

  • Faster containment of malware-infected devices and identity abuse
  • Fewer blind spots (catch infections that bypass EDR or occur on unmanaged hosts)
  • Reduced exposure window for workforce identities; measurable MTTD/MTTR improvements 📸 Image placement map (exact slots)
