# CrowdStrike Identity Based Alerts

#### Overview

**Table name:** `crowdstrike_idp`

CrowdStrike's identity-based alerts are part of its advanced threat detection capabilities, focusing on identifying security threats that specifically target or involve user identities and credentials. These alerts play a critical role in an organization's security posture by helping to prevent unauthorized access, insider threats, and identity-related attacks. With the increasing sophistication of cyber threats, particularly those involving credential theft, social engineering, and lateral movement within networks, identity-based security solutions have become essential.

#### Send data to Hunters

⚠️ **Attention**

The process below requires you to select the **CrowdStrike API** tile (and not CrowdStrike).
