Case Study: Central National Bank of Waco strengthens cybersecurity and compliance with CrowdStrike Falcon Complete MDR

Central National Bank of Waco protects 15,000 customers with CrowdStrike

Central National Bank of Waco, a community bank with over $1 billion in assets, faced the challenge of protecting itself from sophisticated cyberattacks with a reactive and labor-intensive security strategy. The bank's CISO, Rusty Haferkamp, sought to elevate their cybersecurity capabilities and ensure robust protection for customer data. They turned to the vendor CrowdStrike for a solution, implementing their Falcon Complete managed detection and response (MDR) service.

The solution from CrowdStrike provided 24/7 monitoring and automatic remediation, giving the bank immediate visibility and dramatically reducing threat investigation time from days to seconds. Since deploying CrowdStrike Falcon Complete, the bank has experienced zero high-severity security issues and benefits from clear, actionable reporting. This partnership has instilled confidence in their security posture, facilitated compliance, and allowed the IT team to proactively protect the network.
