CrowdStrike brings the power of the cloud-native Falcon platform to popular Japanese recipe service provider which have 55 million monthly users
Tokyo, Japan – July 11, 2019 – CrowdStrike® Inc., a leader in cloud-delivered endpoint protection, today announced that Cookpad Inc. has adopted the CrowdStrike Falcon® platform for comprehensive endpoint protection and to increase overall security posture.
Cookpad, the Japan based tech company, offers a global community platform for consumers to share recipe ideas and cooking tips. They found themselves struggling with frequent detection errors from their existing antivirus product. The Cookpad security team sought to find an endpoint protection platform to improve their security posture and ultimately deployed three modules of the CrowdStrike Falcon platform: CrowdStrike Falcon Prevent™ for next-generation antivirus (NGAV), Falcon Insight™ for endpoint protection and response, and CrowdStrike Falcon OverWatch™ to proactively hunt for threats in their environment. The CrowdStrike Falcon platform, powered by AI, continues to set the standard in endpoint protection by unifying next-generation antivirus, IT hygiene, endpoint detection and response (EDR), cyber threat intelligence, and proactive threat hunting for customers around the globe.
Through the seamless deployment of CrowdStrike Falcon, Cookpad experienced the following benefits:
- Substantial reduction in detection errors or false positives, enabling more robust security: The single-agent, cloud-native infrastructure of CrowdStrike Falcon enables a substantial reduction in detection errors without impacting operations for the organization.
- Detailed event assessments for faster remediation: CrowdStrike Falcon can quickly investigate and identify malicious behavior on endpoints. This allows for rapid triage of system environments and quickly backtracks process sequences and timelines enabling quicker remediation.
- A comprehensive viewpoint into the IT environment through proactive hunting on networks: Integration of Falcon OverWatch provides an additional layer of oversight and analysis on malicious behaviors. OverWatch proactively hunts, investigates, and alerts threat activity within Cookpad’s environment, improving overall security posture.
