Falcon Identity Protection is architected as alog-free identity security platform, a core tenet emphasized throughout the CCIS curriculum. Unlike traditional SIEM- or log-based solutions, Falcon Identity Protection doesnot require string-based queriesto continuously assess identity events or associate them with threats.

Instead, the platform relies onmachine-learning-powered detection rules,real-time authentication traffic inspection, andAPI-based connectorsto collect and analyze identity telemetry directly from domain controllers and identity providers. This approach eliminates the operational complexity of building, tuning, and maintaining query logic.

String-based queries are commonly associated with legacy log aggregation tools and SIEM platforms, where analysts must manually search logs to identify suspicious behavior. Falcon Identity Protection replaces this model withbehavioral baselining and automated correlation, enabling continuous identity risk assessment without human-driven query execution.

Because Falcon does not require string-based queries to operate,Option Dis the correct and verified answer.
