Cybersecurity vendor CrowdStrike has added new AI-powered indicators of attack (IoA) functionality to its Falcon platform. Announced at the Black Hat USA 2022 Conference, the enhancement leverages AI techniques to create new IoAs at machine speed and scale to help organizations stop emerging attack techniques and enable them to optimize detection and response, the firm said.
AI IoAs trained on real-world adversary behavior, rich threat intelligence
In a press release, CrowdStrike stated that Falcon now allows organizations to find emerging attack techniques with IoAs created by AI models trained on real-world adversary behavior and rich threat intelligence. Brian Trombley vice president product management, endpoint security at CrowdStrike, tells CSO that the AI-powered IoAs leverage intelligence from the CrowdStrike Security Cloud, where the firm collects over one trillion security events per day from its customer base.
