CrowdStrike (NASDAQ: CRWD) today announced a new data security solution, CrowdStrike Falcon Data Security, which stops data exfiltration across the enterprise with agent-based AI. Leveraging real attacker intelligence and the integrated context of the Falcon® platform, Falcon Data Security detects, classifies, and stops data exfiltration in real-time, regardless of whether it originates from employee error, malicious insiders, or attackers exploiting legitimate credentials.
Elia Zaitsev, Chief Technology Officer at CrowdStrike, stated:
“AI has fundamentally changed the speed at which data is generated, accessed, and shared, meaning sensitive information is constantly in motion. Traditional data protection tools were built on the premise of an environment where data was static. Falcon Data Security detects, classifies, and protects sensitive data wherever it resides, whether at rest or in motion. This is data security for the age of agent-based AI.”
Data in Motion
AI has transformed how work is done, with sensitive data constantly being accessed and moved across endpoints, cloud services, SaaS applications, and AI-powered workflows. Traditional data protection was built for a different era, addressed by static endpoint DLP and point-in-time cloud inventory DSPM. Neither DLP nor DSPM were designed for comprehensive data security where sensitive information moves across domains. Modern data security requires real-time, cross-domain context and attacker intelligence to distinguish legitimate data movement from actual risk, preventing unintended exposure, data leakage, and theft wherever data resides.
Integrated Data Security
The Falcon platform's integrated architecture spans identity, endpoint, SaaS, cloud, and AI, combined with native attacker intelligence, to provide teams with the context to detect, classify, and protect sensitive data across the entire system. By integrating fragmented DLP and DSPM tools, Falcon Data Security simplifies protection and secures the entire data estate.
Key new features and benefits include:
AI-powered classification of data in motion: Automatically identifies and classifies sensitive data as it is created, transformed, and shared across endpoints, SaaS, cloud, browsers, and AI workflows.
Generative AI data protection: Protects sensitive data shared through browsers, local applications, and runtime cloud environments. It prevents unintended information exposure and blocks data leakage wherever managed and unmanaged generative AI tools are used.
Runtime cloud data visibility: Provides real-time insights into how sensitive data is being accessed and moved, beyond static inventories, to reveal active cloud data risks.
Cross-domain platform context: Evaluates data threats across endpoint, identity, and cloud activities. This provides teams with all the context about users, devices, and access in a single console, enabling faster correlation, prioritization, and stopping of threats.
Automated enforcement: Blocks risky external data movement at the endpoint, prevents unauthorized access in SaaS applications, and automates cloud data response actions through integrated SOAR workflows.
