How Falcon Shield helps secure Slack
Misconfigurations of Slack’s identity and device management security tools can create data and privacy risks. CrowdStrike Falcon® Shield keeps your content secured by continually reviewing configurations and alerting the security team when content is at risk.
Manage apps
Prevent third-party apps from accessing your Slack instance:
- Require approval for any connected third-party application
- Prevent users from logging into other applications with their Slack account, which grants permission to view basic profile and workspace information
Control guest access
Control the level of access guest users have:
- Limit users who can create public channels
- Limit guests to a single channel only rather than providing full access
- Members can only accept external invitations from verified organizations
Strengthen sharing policy
Secure files and prevent data leakage:
- Disable the ability to share files with external users
- Block the ability to download files on unmanaged mobile devices
