How Our MDR Service for CrowdStrike Falcon Works

Critical Start MDR adapts to your environment to deliver the full power of CrowdStrike Falcon Pro, Enterprise, or Elite.

Our bi-directional integration ingests every endpoint alert from CrowdStrike Falcon into our Cyber Operations Risk and Response™ platform, where they’re compared against known good behaviors in the Trusted Behavior Registry^® (TBR) and playbooks auto-resolve known good alerts at scale. Alerts not matching the TBR are escalated to our Security Operations Center (SOC) analysts for further enrichment and investigation. Best of all, we can take response actions on your behalf, and we will work with you until remediation is complete.
