Which Falcon sensor is best suited for securing a hybrid cloud environment with both containerized and non-containerized workloads?
Correct Answer: C
Option A: Falcon Horizon is designed for cloud security posture management (CSPM) and not for runtime protection of workloads. While it helps identify misconfigurations and compliance issues, it does not directly secure containerized or non-containerized workloads.
Option B: While the Falcon Kubernetes Sensor provides excellent runtime protection for containerized workloads in Kubernetes environments, it does not extend its capabilities to non- containerized workloads, making it insufficient for hybrid environments.
Option C: Falcon Container Sensor is optimized for securing containerized workloads, including runtime protection and integration with CI/CD pipelines. Additionally, it can coexist with Falcon Linux Sensor to provide coverage for hybrid environments, making it the best choice in this scenario.
Option D: The Falcon Linux Sensor is ideal for securing traditional Linux workloads but does not provide the specific runtime container protection and orchestration-level insights needed for Kubernetes-based environments.
