Maximizing CrowdStrike ROI Is Seamless with Immersive One’s New Capability

I’m sure Ted Lasso would agree, leading a football team (or soccer, for our friends in the US!) doesn’t make you a professional player. Similarly, owning an industry-leading security platform doesn’t guarantee resilience from cyber threats. 

The strategic gap is by no means due to a lack of features on sophisticated platforms like CrowdStrike Falcon®; it's the readiness gap that leaders worry about. When Mean Time to Detect (MTTD) and Mean Time to Respond (MTTR) remain stagnant despite increased tooling spend, it’s a signal that your team—from your SOC analysts to your Incident Response (IR) specialists—hasn't progressed beyond theoretical knowledge to operational mastery.

To move security posture from an assumption to a data-backed reality, Zero Trust must apply to both your systems and to the people operating them. This is where Immersive One provides unparalleled cohesion between complex security technology and expertise, ensuring you can validate your response workflows and prove cyber readiness at scale. 

Today, as we continue to operationalize our uniquely integrated approach, we launched cyber simulations for CrowdStrike Falcon® on Immersive One. 

Prove Analyst Mastery of the CrowdStrike Falcon® Platform

By providing live, on-demand exercising capabilities for Falcon Insight XDR and Falcon Next-Gen SIEM, teams get instant access to a fully provisioned, high-fidelity CrowdStrike environment. This is the battleground your analysts, threat hunters, and IR teams need to build muscle memory that prevents freezing during critical crisis decision points. 

Thanos Karoupousiz, my roadmap partner and CTO at Immersive, knows all too well that even the best teams fail when teams operate in silos. He views this architectural integration as the key to operational cyber readiness. 

“Integrating live CrowdStrike Falcon® workflows into Immersive One means teams get hands-on in truly practical ways because the lab's architecture essentially replicates that of your SOC. This release goes well beyond tick-box exercises, truly enabling customers to validate the entire incident response and defense lifecycle, all within a unified, platform-native experience.”

Realizing ROI via Native Tools and Natural Workflows on Immersive One

Our customers confirmed that the pivot toward platform consolidation only works if your analysts can operate the unified stack at peak efficiency. This proficiency is what converts a massive technology investment into a functional defensive advantage. Expanding our platform-native capabilities to include CrowdStrike ensures your team’s proficiency keeps pace with the sophistication of the tools they use every day. We deliver the definitive proving ground for your teams to master the technology required for a modern defense.

Beyond technical proficiency, Immersive One provides verifiable proof of cyber resilience by testing your team’s proficiency with CrowdStrike against MITRE ATT&CK techniques.. You are no longer reporting on training hours; you are demonstrating the verifiable readiness of your defense.

Here is how we deliver that proof across the entire incident response lifecycle:

Gain Active Prevention, Not Just Detection

It is one thing to see an alert; it is another to orchestrate a containment strategy. Our exercises require analysts to orchestrate containment strategies by mastering Falcon Query Language (CQL) to tailor defense logic to your unique risk profile.

Unified Workflow Optimization

Consolidation only works if your team can navigate the unified stack at peak performance. We've designed our CrowdStrike capability to help SOC analysts, incident responders, and Threat Hunters transition seamlessly between Falcon Insight XDR and Falcon Next-Gen SIEM, eliminating the ‘swivel-chair’ tax that fractures focus and stalls Mean Time To Respond (MTTR) during high-pressure situations.

High-Fidelity APT Realism

 The ultimate test of whether your team is Falcon-Ready is our APT41 intrusion scenario. It’s the final, high-stakes exercise where your entire security response capability must hunt, identify, triage, and contain active threats within the CrowdStrike environment before a breach occurs.

Verifiable Outcomes for Modern CISOs

We’ve aligned this launch with the outcomes that matter most to you and your Board. By deploying these exercises, you can rest easier because you’re no longer assuming you are ready; you can prove it. With Immersive One driving cohesion across your tools, teams, and workflows, you can:

  • Maximize Security ROI: Fully utilize the prevention and orchestration features of your CrowdStrike investment rather than relying on passive alert monitoring.
  • Slash MTTD and MTTR: Build the muscle memory required to execute confidently, reducing response times by mastering natural workflows before a breach occurs.
  • Evidence-Based Compliance: Replace checkbox compliance with verifiable proof. Map team performance directly to the MITRE ATT&CK framework and generate the documented evidence of proficiency required to satisfy stringent regulatory mandates like NIST, DORA, and GDPR.
  • Build a Verifiable Cyber-Ready Workforce: Standardize training across SOC and IR teams to ensure even junior analysts can handle sophisticated threats within the Falcon environment.

The Road Ahead: Continuous Cyber Resilience

This launch is a major milestone, but it is only the beginning of our commitment to the CrowdStrike ecosystem. Looking ahead to next quarter, we are already preparing to integrate CrowdStrike SIEM into our Dynamic Threat Range capability. Doing so will allow for even more complex, multi-stage attack simulations.

I’ve spent my career realizing that security isn't a product you buy; it's a muscle you build. So until you can prove your defenses are optimized for the fight, your team’s defenses are a black box. With Immersive One you can get the proof you, your Board, and auditors require.
