Which permission is typically required for CrowdStrike Falcon to successfully register and monitor a cloud account?

Question

Options

• AAccess to the root account credentials
• BIAM role with read-only permissions for specific services
• CAdministrator Access policy for full control of the cloud account
• DGranting SSH access to all cloud-hosted virtual machines

• B
  92% (22)
• C
  4% (1)
• D
  4% (1)

Explanation

Option A: This is incorrect because using root credentials poses significant security risks and is not a best practice. IAM roles are the recommended method for securely granting access. Option B: This is correct because CrowdStrike Falcon requires an IAM role with read-only permissions to access and monitor cloud services, configurations, and logs. This minimizes risk while providing sufficient visibility into the cloud account for security monitoring. Option C: This is incorrect because granting full administrative access is unnecessary and violates the principle of least privilege. CrowdStrike does not require full control to monitor cloud Option D: This is incorrect because SSH access is irrelevant to the cloud account registration process. CrowdStrike monitors at the account and service level rather than accessing individual instances directly.
