International High-Tech Company Protects IT Infrastructure with Cloud-Native CrowdStrike Security
Schunk Relies on Cloud-Native CrowdStrike Security to Protect Its Networks
The rollout of the Falcon platform was extremely straightforward, with CrowdStrike’s next-generation technology and the legacy product running in parallel until the latter was fully uninstalled. At no time during either process did Maxeiner's team experience errors or other technical complications. Because of the Falcon platform’s cloud-native foundation, Schunk was able to easily upgrade the security of 9,400 endpoints within two months.
CrowdStrike Complements Security Technology with Managed Threat Hunting Service
To be truly effective in protecting against known and unknown threats, Schunk knew it could not rely on technology alone. The company therefore enlisted CrowdStrike’s Falcon OverWatch™ managed threat hunting team, whose expertise is available to Schunk around the clock and ensures that the company is well-equipped against potential attacks of all kinds. In addition to Falcon OverWatch threat hunting, Schunk relies on numerous CrowdStrike security modules including CrowdStrike Falcon<sup>®</sup> Intelligence, CrowdStrike Falcon<sup>®</sup> Insight endpoint detection and response (EDR), CrowdStrike Falcon<sup>®</sup> Device Control, CrowdStrike Falcon<sup>®</sup> Spotlight vulnerability management and CrowdStrike Falcon<sup>®</sup> Discover IT hygiene. "Now, thanks to the well-coordinated modules, we finally have the centralized overall view that I always wanted for our company,” said Maxeiner. “Of course, this also makes us feel more secure. My boss, our CIO, also sees it that way."
