How does Falcon assist with forensic investigations?

The Falcon platform assists with forensic investigations by supplying detailed logs and artifact data. This capability is crucial for analyzing the activities that have transpired within an environment, as it helps security teams understand the nature and scope of a potential incident. The detailed logs capture a wealth of information, including endpoint activity, threat intelligence data, system changes, and more, which are essential for reconstructing the sequence of events during an attack.

By having access to comprehensive data, investigators can identify the tactics, techniques, and procedures (TTPs) used by adversaries, understand the impact of the incident, and formulate appropriate responses. The granularity and richness of the logs provided by Falcon ensure that investigators are equipped with the necessary information to carry out thorough and effective forensic analysis, supporting prompt remediation efforts and helping to improve overall security posture.
