Overview

CrowdStrike Falcon Host is a two-component security product. One component is a sensor, a driver installed on client machines that observes system activity and recognizes malicious behavior, providing on-box prevention capability and remote telemetry to the Falcon Host cloud. The cloud component aggregates sensor telemetry for each customer’s network, correlates malicious behavior across multiple machines, and presents customers’ operations teams with a prioritized summary of detected threats.
