CrowdStrike Accelerates Real-Time Data Classification with On-Device AI

CrowdStrike announces Falcon Data Security to secure data wherever it lives and moves

Access is step one. Data theft is the goal.

From malicious insiders to skilled adversaries, stealing data is the endgame.

Famous Chollima

1. 2x increase in voice phishing intrusions1

2. 42% increase in zero-day vulnerabilities exploited prior to public disclosure2

3. 27 seconds — fastest breakout time2

4. 82% detections in 2025 were malware-free2

Data moves in new ways.
Traditional DLP and DSPM can’t keep up.

Fragmented tools create blind spots

Noisy alerts, slow rollout, and relying only on point-in-time scans miss data theft as it happens.
Unpredictable paths break old assumptions

Traditional tools create gaps as data is constantly created, accessed, transformed, and shared across endpoint, browser, SaaS, GenAI, and cloud.
Valid credentials hides real risk

Whether it’s a mistake, an automated process, or an adversary using valid credentials, teams need adversary intelligence context to spot real risk.

Modern security for data that’s constantly on the move


Turn data movement into a security signal and stop threats before exposure becomes a breach.

Deploy instantly


Deploy quickly at scale with the Falcon platform’s unified sensor. Experience minimal configuration, no added infrastructure, and see known and unknown egress paths — all from a single console.

This screenshot shows the Insider Threat Dashboard correlating identity and data activity to surface a high-risk user. It highlights sensitive files moved to a personal cloud account, flags the behavior as insider-driven risk, and provides analysts with context to investigate and stop potential data loss.
×
Falcon Data Protection secures sensitive data both at rest and in motion—detecting classified files stored on endpoints and monitoring real-time activity like uploads to web destinations, ensuring comprehensive visibility and control across your environment.
×

Discover and classify consistently


Discover and classify sensitive data as it’s created, accessed, and used across endpoints, browsers, SaaS, GenAI workflows, and cloud services. A shared classification engine uses AI-powered classification to improve accuracy at scale, reduce manual tagging, and keep policies consistent as data changes.

Gain real-time visibility into data in motion


See who moved sensitive data, what it was, where it went, and how it left. Falcon Data Security turns data movement into a security signal so teams can surface emerging risk as it happens — not after the fact.

Falcon Data Protection visualizes data flows from web origins to destinations, enabling rapid insight into data movement by web origins, classification, and more.

Focus on threats, not tuning


Use out-of-the-box, adversary-informed detections to spot the highest-risk data threats and reduce guesswork so teams can move faster without drowning in alerts.

Enforce before threats become data loss


Stop data theft before it leads to exposure. Block risky data movement at the endpoint, prevent access to sensitive data in SaaS applications, and gain runtime visibility into sensitive data movement in cloud environments.

Falcon Data Protection enables flexible, granular policy enforcement for sensitive data classifications. This screenshot shows a rule for corporate GitHub source code, allowing uploads only to approved destinations while blocking all other egress paths, including web, removable media, and printers.

Act with cross-domain context


Evaluate data threats with cross-domain platform context, not standalone alerts. See the user, device, and cloud access behind each interaction, alongside broader endpoint, identity, and cloud activity.

FAQs

Falcon Data Security helps organizations secure sensitive data wherever it lives and moves across endpoints, browsers, SaaS applications, GenAI workflows, and cloud environments. It discovers and classifies sensitive data, provides real-time visibility into how data moves, and helps security teams stop data theft before it becomes a breach.

Traditional data loss prevention (DLP) often relies on static policies, fragmented tools, and ongoing tuning. Falcon Data Security takes a modern approach by understanding what data is sensitive, seeing how it moves in real time, and enabling teams to stop risky data movement across endpoints, browsers, SaaS, GenAI workflows, and cloud environments. It also uses Falcon platform context to help teams distinguish real threats from routine activity.

Data Security Posture Management (DSPM) helps organizations discover and understand sensitive data at rest. Falcon Data Security extends cloud data security beyond discovery and inventory with runtime visibility into data in motion. Using eBPF-based telemetry, Falcon Data Security for Cloud shows how sensitive data is accessed and moved across cloud workloads, APIs, services, and storage in real time — without requiring proxies, sidecars, or added infrastructure.

Falcon Data Security assesses sensitive data as it moves across endpoints, browsers, SaaS applications, GenAI workflows, and cloud services. It captures context including the user, source, destination, and egress channel so security teams can understand who moved sensitive data, what it was, where it went, and how it left — and take action before exposure becomes a breach.

Falcon Data Security helps organizations identify sensitive data shared with GenAI tools and control risky interactions in real time. This helps employees use GenAI productively while reducing the risk of sensitive data exposure.

Falcon Data Security is delivered natively through the unified Falcon sensor and managed from a single Falcon console. This enables organizations to expand data security coverage without deploying a separate data security stack, additional endpoint agents, or disconnected workflows.
