Case Study: CrowdStrike accelerates detection and response to external and insider threats with Code42 Incydr

CrowdStrike and Code42 vs. External Threat and Insider Risk

CrowdStrike, a cloud-based endpoint and workload protection provider, and Code42, an Insider Risk Management leader, partnered to address a dual challenge many organizations face: defending against external cyberattacks while quickly detecting and verifying insider data loss (including departing employees who may take IP). Security teams need high-fidelity alerts and multiple sources of evidence to distinguish malicious exfiltration from benign misuse and to reduce false positives.

By combining CrowdStrike Falcon’s fast, granular endpoint detection with Code42 Incydr’s file-level visibility and history, teams get alerts plus proof—speeding investigations and confident responses. In practice this combination has enabled rapid validation of incidents (for example distinguishing torrent-based movie downloads from IP theft), faster containment actions like blocking USBs, simpler workflows for monitoring departing employees, and overall quicker, more accurate protection of corporate data.
