Option A: Falcon Horizon does not function as a firewall. It provides security posture management and misconfiguration detection rather than controlling network traffic.
Option B: Falcon Horizon offers continuous security posture assessment, identifying misconfigurations, compliance violations, and security risks across multi-cloud environments (AWS, Azure, GCP). It helps organizations proactively address vulnerabilities.
Option C: Falcon Horizon supports multiple cloud platforms, including AWS, Microsoft Azure, and Google Cloud, enabling organizations to manage security posture across different cloud providers.
Option D: While Falcon Horizon provides remediation guidance and automation options, it does not force automatic remediation of all vulnerabilities without administrator control.

Option A: Simply tagging the devices without further action does not address the potential security risks associated with unmanaged assets. Additional steps, such as identifying and deploying the Falcon sensor, are required.
Option B: Unmanaged devices pose significant security risks, regardless of their perceived criticality. Ignoring them could lead to blind spots in your security posture.
Option C: Blocking these devices at the firewall could disrupt legitimate operations, particularly if they are critical to business processes. Investigating and managing them is a better approach.
Option D: Deploying the Falcon sensor is the most appropriate action to ensure these unmanaged assets are properly monitored and secured. Without the Falcon sensor, these devices remain unprotected and could serve as attack vectors. This step ensures they are brought under management and included in the asset inventory for continuous monitoring.

Option A: Enabling container security without process blocking may still allow unauthorized processes to execute, potentially leading to container escapes or privilege escalation attacks.
Process blocking is essential for preventing unauthorized execution.
Option B: While file integrity monitoring is crucial, allowing all processes by default increases the attack surface and enables unauthorized execution of malicious scripts or binaries. A proper runtime sensor policy should also include process blocking.
Option C: This option prioritizes system performance at the cost of security, making the system highly vulnerable to runtime threats such as unauthorized code execution and data exfiltration.
Option D: This configuration provides a balanced approach to security, ensuring unauthorized processes are blocked, file integrity is monitored for changes that could indicate tampering, and container security policies are enforced to mitigate container runtime threats. This setup aligns with best practices for runtime security in cloud environments.

Option A: Storing credentials in plain text poses a significant security risk. Credentials should always be encrypted or securely stored using tools like AWS Secrets Manager or HashiCorp Vault.
Option B: Sharing credentials across multiple teams violates the principle of least privilege and increases the risk of unauthorized access.
Option C: Using default admin credentials is highly insecure and can lead to unauthorized access if the credentials are compromised.
Option D: Best practices recommend using a service account with the least privilege necessary to reduce the risk of over-privileged access in case of a breach. This ensures security while granting Falcon Cloud Security access for image assessments.

Option A: Granting the Falcon application the appropriate permissions ensures it can access logs, telemetry, and security configurations necessary for monitoring and protection. Without these permissions, Falcon cannot function correctly in the cloud environment.
Option B: Two-factor authentication is a general security best practice but not directly relevant to cloud account registration in Falcon. CrowdStrike integrates with the account through APIs and IAM permissions.
Option C: Deleting unused IAM roles is unnecessary and could disrupt existing configurations.
This step does not contribute to successful cloud account registration.
Option D: While endpoint agents provide additional security, they are not a requirement for registering a cloud account. The account registration focuses on permissions and integrations, not endpoint installations.
