About the Role:
Cloud Workload Protection Platform (CWPP) is a brand new and a key product area for CrowdStrike. We're extending CrowdStrike's mission of "stopping breaches" into the public cloud and cloud-native workloads. CrowdStrike's CWPP offering will give customers the ability to monitor and track their cloud-native workloads as well as hardening and protecting them against attacks prior to deployment. This offering will help with defending against potential adversary activities involving cloud-native resources. When coupled with Falcon, CrowdStrike's endpoint security offering, our CWPP offering will provide a more comprehensive perspective on how the adversary is targeting key customer infrastructure. Our ultimate goal is to provide a single platform for securing the entire lifecycle of cloud workloads.
