About the Role:

CrowdStrike is a cyber security company founded on the principle that effective computer security cannot be achieved without understanding the goals, tactics, and techniques used by determined attackers who can be expected to purposefully and repeatedly pursue their objectives to the detriment of our customers. This is a full stack development position in the Spotlight content team. The content team focusses on continuous extraction in near real time and analysis of security vulnerability information and knowledge base available in public domain from various vulnerability databases, and other locations for ever growing list of OS, components and applications, including zero day vulnerabilities. It then creates a world class comprehensive vulnerability intelligence database that is used by the Falcon platform for assessing, prioritizing and remediation of vulnerabilities in the customer environment. This role requires strong focus on analysis, rapid prototyping, research automation, scalability and development of required services and APIs.

The Product

Falcon Spotlight is the industry’s first scanless endpoint vulnerability assessment solution, delivering real-time, zero-impact assessments of endpoint security posture. Falcon Spotlight adds preparation and readiness to the unparalleled prevention, detection and response provided by the Falcon platform, resulting in a stronger security posture and unprecedented breach protection.

The Platform

CrowdStrike Falcon is a two-component security product. One component is a “sensor”, which is a lightweight agent installed on client machines that observes system activity and recognizes malicious behavior, then provides on-box prevention capability and remote telemetry to the Falcon cloud. The cloud component aggregates sensor telemetry for each customer’s network, can correlate malicious behavior across multiple machines, and presents our customers’ operations teams with a prioritized summary of the threats detected in their environments.
