CrowdStrike

CrowdStrike Falcon is a cloud-native endpoint detection and response (EDR) and endpoint protection platform developed by CrowdStrike Inc. It combines AI-driven threat prevention, real-time detection, identity protection, and vulnerability assessment across Windows, macOS, and Linux endpoints — all delivered through a single lightweight agent and managed from the Falcon console. CrowdStrike Falcon Spotlight is the vulnerability management module within the platform, providing continuous assessment of CVEs present on protected endpoints without requiring separate scan agents or scheduled scans.
