CrowdStrike FDR is a powerful tool for incident response and threat hunting.
To get started, you'll need to complete the configuration process, which involves setting up the agent and defining the playbooks.
The agent is the core component of FDR, responsible for collecting and sending data to the CrowdStrike cloud.
With the agent installed, you can then define your playbooks, which are essentially custom workflows that automate the response to specific types of incidents.
These playbooks can be tailored to your organization's specific needs and threat landscape.

Configuration
To configure CrowdStrike FDR, you'll need to contact the CrowdStrike support team to enable it. This is a crucial step, as your requests will receive HTTP 500 responses if it's not enabled.
First, navigate to the CrowdStrike console and go to Support > API Clients and Keys. Here, you'll need to create new credentials to copy the AWS Access Key ID, AWS Secret Access Key, and SQS Queue URL, which you'll provide to Sumo Logic when creating your CrowdStrike FDR Source.

To initiate logging configuration, you'll need to open a support ticket to [email protected] to enable the 'CrowdStrike Data Replicator'. This will create an S3 Bucket for your CrowdStrike account.
You'll need to provide the following information to AlphaSOC: your workspace ID, SQS queue ARN, and S3 bucket ARN. You can find these details in the AlphaSOC console.
To configure CrowdStrike FDR, you'll need to enable it, generate new FDR credentials, and collect the Secret value, SQS queue URL, and Client ID. You can find these details in the CrowdStrike Falcon console, under Support > API Client and Keys.

Overview
CrowdStrike Falcon Data Replicator is a powerful feature that collects and replicates telemetry data from endpoints, giving organizations detailed visibility into endpoint activities.
This data includes process executions, which records applications and processes running on the system.
It also captures file and network activity, such as logs of file changes and network connections.
Security events are another important aspect, detailing threats detected and actions taken by Falcon.
This data is essential for security monitoring, threat hunting, and incident response.
Here are some examples of the types of data collected by FDR:
- Process executions: Records of applications and processes running on the system.
- File and network activity: Logs of file changes and network connections.
- Security events: Details of threats detected and actions taken by Falcon.
Configuring S3 Storage
Configuring S3 Storage is a crucial step in setting up CrowdStrike FDR. To do this, you'll need to create an Amazon SQS queue and an S3 bucket.
Cyderes recommends using CrowdStrike FDR unless ingestion of CrowdStrike Detections is required. If you're using FDR, you can initiate logging configuration by opening a support ticket to [email protected] to enable the 'CrowdStrike Data Replicator'.
You'll need the following information to configure S3 Storage: workspace ID, SQS queue ARN, and S3 bucket ARN. These can be found in the AlphaSOC console.
Here's a list of the information you'll need:
If you're new to CrowdStrike FDR, you'll need to enable it and generate new FDR credentials. To do this, go to the Support > API Client and Keys page in CrowdStrike Falcon and validate that 'FDR AWS S3 Credentials and SQS Queue' is present.

Step-by-Step Guide
To set up CrowdStrike FDR, you'll need to contact the support team to enable it. This is a crucial step, as without it, your requests will receive HTTP 500 responses.
First, navigate to the CrowdStrike console and go to Support > API Clients and Keys. From there, you'll need to create new credentials to copy the AWS Access Key ID, AWS Secret Access Key, and SQS Queue URL.
To enable FDR, you'll need to open a support ticket to [email protected]. A CrowdStrike support representative will create an S3 Bucket for your account and provide you with the necessary credentials.
Once FDR is enabled, you can generate new credentials by clicking on the Create new credentials button next to FDR AWS S3 Credentials and SQS Queue. Collect the Secret value and store it in a secure location, as it will only be displayed when the credentials are created.
To configure CrowdStrike FDR, you'll need to ensure that it's enabled on your CrowdStrike instance. This can be done by going to the Support > API Client and Keys page in CrowdStrike Falcon. If FDR is not enabled, you'll need to contact CrowdStrike support to enable it before proceeding.
