We are at the edge of closing a contract with Crowdstrike Falcon Complete, a MDR-solution including managed service for monitoring the security of our infrastructure 24/7. The functionality looked promising during a short pilot we organized. We are now in the contracting phase and discovered that we need to pay upfront for a three years contract. For a managed service I find this rather strange, while I am used to pay on a monthly, quarterly or sometimes yearly basis. Does someone in the peer group has the same experience with Crowdstrike?

I was always under the perception that Crowdstrike operated on a net-60 opex model. Are they asking for the TCV in a lump sum?

Anomaly Detection / Mindbridge: We’re exploring tools that support continuous monitoring of financial transactions (e.g., inventory adjustments, journal entries, credit memos, disbursements) to help us identify anomalies earlier than our traditional periodic audits allow. We are a $20B company with 50+ different ERP systems globally (some data is mastered). Our goal is to enhance fraud detection and internal controls using modern, AI/ML analytics tools. We've started a vendor assessment process and MindBridge seems to be the only vendor that fairly fits the bill. I'd appreciate if someone can share any feedback/experience on the solution/vendor.

Has anyone been successful in implementing a FinOps Cost Optimization policy to turn down idle cloud instances during off hours (nights/weekends)?  DId you start with non-prod environments?  How are you handling logging/monitoring alerts during that time?
