The famed Falcon

CrowdStrike has come a long way since its inception and has honestly become a bit of a powerhouse in cybersecurity — as many customers and industry analysts like Gartner and Forrester.

Thanks to its simplification mindset — realized in single agent and the Falcon Platform.

Over the past few months I’ve been studying for certs, learning about their platform and so I wanted to talk about how CrowdStrike’s solutions have evolved, what’s in the portfolio right now, and how you can start diving into CrowdStrike certifications if you want to get really good at it.

CrowdStrike Solution Evolution

Alright, let’s go back to the beginning. CrowdStrike kicked things off in 2011. Back then, it was all about incident response and threat intelligence. Those early moves set the stage for what later turned into the market staple endpoint protection platform with the likes of Trend Micro, Cisco, Palo Alto and Microsoft fearing its reputation and capabilities. They put the world of endpoint detection and response (EDR) on the map, and honestly, it kind of shook things up in the whole industry. They were leveraging machine learning before it was cool — looking at what attackers were up to and using AI for detection.
