Explanation

Option A: Falcon Spotlight focuses on identifying vulnerabilities in systems where a Falcon sensor is deployed. It cannot independently identify running workloads in a cloud environment without sensors. Option B: Falcon Horizon (CrowdStrike's Cloud Security Posture Management tool) is specifically designed to provide visibility into cloud environments, including identifying running workloads, exposed services, and configurations. It achieves this without requiring a Falcon sensor, as it integrates directly with the APIs of cloud service providers such as AWS, Azure, and Google Cloud Platform to collect data on workloads and resources. Option C: Falcon Prevent requires the deployment of a Falcon sensor on workloads to provide protection and visibility. It is not suitable for identifying running workloads without sensor Option D: While cloud provider dashboards can be used to manually view running workloads, this approach lacks the automation, centralization, and advanced analytics provided by Falcon Horizon. It is a time-intensive and error-prone process compared to using CSPM tools.
