What happens to quarantined files after 90 days in CrowdStrike?

When a file is quarantined in CrowdStrike, it is essentially flagged as potentially harmful, and this action prevents it from executing on the host. After 90 days, these quarantined files are deleted from both the host and the cloud storage. This policy ensures that stale or unnecessary data does not accumulate over time, which can improve overall system performance and security posture. The automated deletion process also frees up storage space and mitigates the risk of retaining potentially harmful files for extended periods, which aligns with security best practices. This lifecycle management of quarantined files is an important aspect of maintaining an organized and secure environment within the CrowdStrike platform.
