The future of security requires next-gen SIEM technology built for scale and speed, powered by automation and AI. To liberate organizations from the constraints of legacy SIEMs, we built CrowdStrike Falcon® Next-Gen SIEM, which converges data, AI, workflow automation and threat intelligence in one platform with one console and a single-agent architecture.
Security teams are often plagued by noisy SIEM correlation rules that flood them with useless alerts. Analysts must manually sift through a deluge of alerts, struggling to find real threats. Investigations drag on, often ending in false positives and leaving critical threats unaddressed. While analysts chase down dead ends, adversaries move laterally, expand their control and achieve their objectives, all while staying under the radar.
Today’s SOC teams are bogged down with tedious tasks — enriching alerts, gathering investigative insights, manually responding to attacks and documenting incidents. Endless alerts, false positives and complex investigations delay response, increasing the risk of a costly breach. Teams are ready for a change — and we can deliver it.
AI and Workflow Automation Innovations Unlock the AI-Native SOC
New Falcon Fusion SOAR enhancements allow analysts to run workflows, enrich incidents with threat context and view full execution details from the Incident Workbench. Falcon Fusion SOAR now integrates with on-premises tools and supports automated security workflows that can handle advanced tasks like complex loops, polling and pagination.

CrowdStrike takes a unique approach to threat detection by integrating key data sources like endpoint, cloud workload and identity data from the start. With Detection Posture Management, teams can evaluate detection capabilities across all data sources, including Falcon and third-party data — all in one place.
Falcon Next-Gen SIEM makes CrowdStrike’s industry-leading detection, threat intelligence and adversary research immediately accessible, covering all data sources to protect every user and asset. Tight integration with the Falcon agent drives real-time detection of endpoint and identity-based attacks, with AI-powered indicators of attack (IOAs) that work out-of-the-box, without tedious rule tuning and testing.

Stop Breaches with Industry-Best Detection, Extended to All Data
Falcon Next-Gen SIEM makes it easy to collect and process data from any source, even if a prebuilt parser does not exist, with our new, industry-first AI-generated parsers. By analyzing sample logs with multiple large language models, Falcon Next-Gen SIEM can classify log structure and contents on the fly to build parsers, saving hours of busywork and speeding up the adoption of Falcon Next-Gen SIEM. Users can review and update AI-generated parsers with a flexible parser editor.
An expanding set of correlation rules accurately detects threats across a vast array of data sources, from network and cloud data to phishing and credential compromise threats. Analysts can detect ransomware, encryption parameter tampering and privileged user escalation attempts with new correlation rule templates. Teams can rapidly deploy, customize and scale threat detections with new detection-as-code capabilities.
To outsmart them, organizations need total threat visibility and laser-accurate detection. Enter Detection Posture Management: It maps detection rules to MITRE ATT&CK® techniques, providing a crystal-clear view of detection coverage. Analysts can instantly identify gaps and get actionable recommendations to elevate their security posture. Granular filters let them assess coverage by adversary, severity, log source and more.
Investigate with CrowdStrike® Charlotte AI™ helps teams analyze incidents faster by providing a clear picture of attacks with investigative context and building LLM-powered incident reports to save analysts valuable time. We’ve also elevated the analyst experience with multiple Incident Workbench enhancements. Incident Workbench simplifies investigations by visualizing all key elements of an incident, including users, entities, malicious events and threat context, in an elegant visual graph. New features let teams upload files and save notes in a feature-rich text editor.
With the latest capabilities from CrowdStrike, organizations can effortlessly migrate from their existing SIEM to Falcon Next-Gen SIEM. Existing CrowdStrike customers are well on their way because their endpoint, identity and cloud security data is already in the Falcon platform. Plus, they can easily extend CrowdStrike’s 24/7 managed detection and response to all of their data with Falcon Complete Next-Gen MDR.
Analysts can also reduce the alert backlog and focus on the threats that matter by automatically handling duplicate and low-fidelity alerts with automated noise reduction and alert suppression.

Organizations considering SIEM replacement might be worried about deployment and data onboarding processes — which, let’s face it, can be a headache with traditional SIEMs. To make the move to Falcon Next-Gen SIEM hassle-free, we’ve added 45 new data connectors and 58 new parsers since our last major release in May. These integrations ease setup and reduce time-to-value.

That’s not all. Teams can also collect and forward logs from Linux, Windows and macOS hosts with the Falcon Log Collector. We’ve recently introduced features that let them remotely deploy, configure, manage and monitor a fleet of log collectors from the Falcon platform.
All of these advancements, especially our new AI and automation capabilities, help reduce complexity and costs. Most importantly, the innovations we’re announcing today empower organizations to achieve the ultimate goal: stopping breaches.
Are your legacy technologies slowing down your security operations? You’re not alone. Seventy percent of critical incidents take over 12 hours to resolve. Legacy SIEMs burden security teams with endless manual processes and agonizingly slow search speeds, delaying investigation and response while increasing the risk of a breach.
