CROWDSTRIKE NG-SIEM
CrowdStrike NextGen SIEM. Managed.
AI-powered SIEM on the Falcon platform — operated by a CrowdStrike Elite Partner.
Falcon NG-SIEM unifies endpoint, identity, cloud, and third-party telemetry on a single AI-native platform. QMasters operates it as a fully managed service — onboarding, detection engineering, tuning, and 24/7 SOC response.
WHAT WE DELIVER
What's included. From day one.
AI-Native Detection
Charlotte AI + Falcon detections tuned to your environment, day one.

PLATFORM CAPABILITIES
What CrowdStrike NextGen SIEM Delivers.
Log Ingestion
Ingest logs from endpoints, cloud, network, identity, and SaaS into a unified data platform at petabyte scale.
Threat Correlation
Cross-source correlation detects multi-stage attacks that individual tools miss. 180+ data source connectors built in.
Detection Rules
4,800+ pre-built detection rules plus QMasters-authored custom rules tuned to your environment.
Automated Response
Falcon Fusion SOAR executes automated playbooks — from phishing quarantine to full endpoint isolation.
Adversary OverWatch
Elite threat hunting team operates 24/7, monitoring for novel adversary techniques beyond automated detection.
Reporting & Compliance
Pre-built compliance dashboards for SOC 2, ISO 27001, PCI DSS, and GDPR. Board-ready reports on demand.
END-TO-END OWNERSHIP
One team owns the SIEM from first log to last escalation.
A SIEM is only as good as the people who feed, tune and answer it. QMasters takes the whole loop, so detections do not stall between a platform team, a content team and an on-call rota.
- 01
Assess and inventory
Log sources, parsers, retention needs, existing rules and the response actions your team already trusts.
- 02
Migrate and validate
Sources onboarded, rules re-engineered, results compared against the incumbent SIEM before anything is switched off.
- 03
Operate 24/7
Analysts triage, enrich and investigate in-scope alerts, then hand you a decision-ready case rather than a raw detection.
- 04
Engineer and improve
Detection content, noisy-rule retirement, source health and ATT&CK coverage reviewed on a standing cadence.
- Onboarding, parsers and source health
- Detection engineering and tuning
- Triage, enrichment, investigation, reporting
- Authorization for response actions, per runbook
- Asset criticality and business context
- Risk acceptance and policy decisions
TANGIBLE DELIVERABLES
What lands in your hands, not just what we promise.
Coverage inventory
A living register of log sources, parser status, retention and gaps against the systems that matter to you.
Investigation write-ups
Each escalated case states what happened, the evidence behind it, affected assets and the recommended action.
Detection catalogue
Every active rule with its purpose, data dependencies, ATT&CK mapping and tuning history.
Response runbook
Which actions we may take immediately, which wait for your approval, and who is called for each.
Operational reporting
Alert volumes, validated-alert rates, source health and SLA performance as agreed in your contract.
Scheduled reviews
Regular sessions to close coverage gaps, retire noise and add content for threats relevant to your sector.
HOW AN INVESTIGATION READS
From detection to a decision you can act on.
Illustrative examples constructed to show our working style. They are not real customer events.
Sign-in from an unfamiliar country, followed by a new MFA method registered minutes later.
Approve session revocation and credential reset, or hold if the user is confirmed travelling.
- Enrich
- Match the account to its owner, role, recent travel notices and normal sign-in pattern.
- Correlate
- Search for mailbox rule changes, token use and sign-ins from the same address elsewhere.
- Scope
- Confirm which applications the session touched and whether data was accessed.

MIGRATION ACCEPTANCE
Your next SIEM. Validated before cutover.
Moving from QRadar or another legacy SIEM is a re-engineering exercise, not a file conversion. This is the approach we follow, scoped to each environment.
Rules are re-engineered, not blindly translated
QRadar rules and building blocks rest on its data model and reference sets. We rebuild the intent in Falcon query logic, then test it against known activity.
Coverage is inventoried first
Every log source, parser, field dependency and retention requirement is listed before a single rule is touched, so gaps are visible early.
Parallel validation
Both platforms run side by side. We compare what each detects and explain every difference.
Response stays yours
Automated actions are only enabled where you have authorized them in the runbook.
Cutover is controlled by acceptance gates
- Sources accepted
Agreed in-scope sources are flowing, parsed and retained as specified.
- Content accepted
Agreed detections are validated, with documented exceptions and owners.
- Operations accepted
Runbooks, escalation paths, historical-log access and a rollback plan are reviewed with your team.
- Cutover approved
You sign off. The legacy SIEM is retired on your decision, not on a timer.
Scope, sequence and timelines are set per environment and confirmed in the agreed contract.
CASE STUDY
A software company moves from QRadar to CrowdStrike.
Anonymous customer. Details shared with permission only.
For a software company moving from IBM QRadar to CrowdStrike, QMasters managed the migration end to end. The result was a smooth, efficient transition, with one team responsible for the full process—not a series of handoffs.
The engagement at a glance
- The customer is a software company.
- QMasters moved it from IBM QRadar to CrowdStrike.
- QMasters handled the full process, A to Z.
- The migration was smooth and efficient.
How QMasters typically runs such a migration
- Inventory sources, parsers and retention before design begins.
- Re-engineer and validate detections against known activity.
- Run both SIEMs in parallel and review differences together.
- Cut over only when agreed acceptance gates are met.
- Hand over to 24/7 operations with a tested runbook.
The typical approach describes our standard method. It is not a record of customer-specific steps, figures or outcomes.
FAQ
Questions. Answered straight.
Teams usually move to consolidate detection on the Falcon platform, query telemetry in one place and reduce the operational weight of maintaining a legacy SIEM. The benefit depends on your estate, so we start with an inventory of sources, parsers, rules and retention, then agree scope and licensing in your contract.
Yes. QMasters is a CrowdStrike Elite Partner and operates Falcon modules for customers, with certified engineers across NG-SIEM and related Falcon capabilities.
No. Rules are re-engineered and validated rather than blindly translated, because QRadar logic depends on its own data model. We inventory sources, parsers and retention first, run both SIEMs in parallel, and cut over only when agreed acceptance gates are met.
It depends on the number of sources, rule volume and how many environments are in scope. We give a scoped plan and timeline before commitment, and the agreed timeline is confirmed in the contract.
No. NG-SIEM can correlate third-party telemetry alongside Falcon. We connect the sources in scope for your environment. Falcon EDR deepens the integration but is not a prerequisite.
Pricing is quoted per agreed scope. Platform licensing and data volume terms depend on your CrowdStrike agreement, and we discuss them openly during scoping so there are no surprises.
Our SOC handles monitoring, triage, enrichment, investigation, detection engineering and reporting. You keep authorization for response actions, asset context and risk decisions. The split is written into your runbook, including which actions we may take immediately and which need your approval.
We keep a coverage inventory, map detections to MITRE ATT&CK, and report on validated alerts, source health and SLA performance. Scheduled reviews close gaps and retire noisy rules.
Response and escalation targets are defined per service tier and written into your contract, along with the runbook that governs containment actions.
We completed a QRadar to CrowdStrike migration for a software company, handling the full process end to end. The customer is anonymous, so we share further details only with their permission.
