Explanation
Option A: Falcon Insight requires the installation of the Falcon sensor on endpoints to provide EDR capabilities. It cannot operate in agentless mode for runtime process discovery. Option B: The Falcon Discover module enables organizations to perform agentless visibility of cloud workloads. It allows security teams to find what is running in the environment without deploying a Falcon sensor, making it particularly useful for runtime protection and initial assessments. This approach reduces the overhead of agent installation and provides instant visibility into unmanaged resources. Option C: Falcon Horizon focuses on cloud posture management by identifying misconfigurations and compliance risks, not runtime visibility into processes or workloads. It does not offer runtime insights into active processes without a sensor. Option D: Falcon OverWatch is a proactive threat hunting service that leverages Falcon Insight and related modules. It requires the deployment of sensors to function, making it unsuitable for environments without sensors.
