CrowdStrike Falcon Platform and ISO Compliance Assessment

This white paper presents an independent technical assessment of the CrowdStrike Falcon platform in relation to ISO/IEC 27001:2022 and ISO/IEC 27017:2015. The objective is to evaluate how the platform's features and capabilities align with the information security controls required by these standards. The assessment focuses on mapping the functionality of the CrowdStrike Falcon platform to the control objectives outlined in ISO/IEC 27001:2022 Annex A and the associated ISO/IEC 27002:2022 control catalogue. Key control themes such as access control, threat detection, endpoint protection, audit logging, monitoring, and incident management are examined. Additionally, the paper discusses the platform's relevance to cloud-specific controls under ISO/IEC 27017:2015. Coalfire's methodology includes selecting operational scenarios, identifying applicable control areas, and evaluating the platform's technical role in supporting those areas. The review is limited to technical controls and does not encompass organizational processes or other non-technical requirements necessary for full conformity with ISO/IEC 27001:2022.
