The IDC MarketScape highlights CrowdStrike’s ability to integrate proactive exposure management with reactive threat detection within the Falcon platform. Unlike legacy systems that rely on multiple agents and siloed consoles, Falcon Exposure Management uses a single, lightweight agent for continuous monitoring, eliminating operational complexity. “CrowdStrike is bringing together both proactive exposure management and reactive threat detection and response into the Falcon platform operating on the same data in the same console enabling risk prioritization algorithms to help security teams respond to threats efficiently with a focus on what is most critical to the organization,” the report notes.
Falcon Exposure Management provides cross-domain visibility through built-in network vulnerability assessment and attack path analysis. This enables defenders to anticipate how adversaries might navigate across assets, identities, and cloud resources to reach critical data. The platform’s recent addition of network-based vulnerability scanning reduces the need for separate third-party solutions, streamlining operations and enhancing security posture management.
CrowdStrike’s Charlotte AI agents enhance Falcon Exposure Management by automating vulnerability research, risk analysis, response, and reporting. These agents enable faster identification and remediation of exposures without requiring human intervention at every step. “Security teams are inundated with alerts, and legacy vulnerability management tools that indiscriminately flag every vulnerability only compound the noise. What matters is knowing how adversaries operate, the attack paths they’re most likely to take and the exposures they will actually exploit,” said Cristian Rodriguez, field CTO, Americas, CrowdStrike. This AI-driven approach prioritizes critical risks, transforming visibility into actionable outcomes.
Delivered as a SaaS platform, Falcon Exposure Management requires no additional infrastructure, ensuring rapid deployment and operational simplicity. The solution harmonizes first-party and third-party vulnerability scanner data with CrowdStrike’s attack surface management tools, providing a comprehensive view of the security landscape. This eliminates blind spots and empowers security teams to proactively mitigate risks before exploitation.
CrowdStrike’s recognition as a Leader in the 2025 IDC MarketScape underscores its innovative approach to exposure management. By combining AI-driven insights, unified visibility, and seamless deployment, Falcon Exposure Management equips organizations to stay ahead of evolving cyber threats and prevent breaches effectively.
