If you have EDR, email protection and access control, that’s a good start. But the standard set of tools doesn’t answer the key question: who is actually monitoring security events at two in the morning, at the weekend or during a DDoS peak? Who will distinguish between noise and a genuine attack, and respond before it’s too late?

This is where MDR – Managed Detection and Response – comes in. And CrowdStrike offers something more than the traditional model: Falcon Complete NextGen MDR with an Agentic MDR approach, where round-the-clock protection is provided simultaneously by the platform, automation, AI and a team of live experts.

This is particularly relevant for Ukrainian companies. Cyber threats are on the rise, attacks are becoming faster and more sophisticated, and finding and retaining a strong security team is getting harder and harder. That’s why, for many organisations, the key question is no longer ‘do we need a SOC?’, but ‘how can we achieve SOC-level protection without spending years building our own monitoring centre?’.

What is Falcon Complete NextGen MDR

Falcon Complete NextGen MDR is a managed service for detecting, analysing and stopping attacks, provided by CrowdStrike 24 hours a day, seven days a week, including weekends and public holidays.

The client receives not just a licensed platform, but a team that works continuously with their environment: detecting suspicious activity, analysing events, confirming incidents, and helping to stop them and mitigate their consequences. In effect, it is a ready-made external SOC, integrated into the client’s processes.

The client does not need to recruit night-shift analysts themselves, set up threat hunting from scratch, or maintain a large in-house team that must perform to the same high standard both day and night. Falcon Complete meets these needs, acting as a natural extension of the client’s internal team.

Moreover, protection extends beyond endpoints. Thanks to the integration of Falcon NextGen SIEM, the monitoring perimeter includes identities, cloud workloads and data from other sources.
