Summary

CrowdStrike has integrated firmware attack detection capabilities into its Falcon® platform, becoming the first endpoint security provider to offer such comprehensive visibility into BIOS vulnerabilities. This enhancement addresses the critical gap in protection against BIOS attacks, which are challenging to detect due to their position below the operating system. These attacks can persist through system reboots and are often overlooked by traditional security tools. By partnering with Dell SafeBIOS, CrowdStrike now provides continuous monitoring and enhanced detection of BIOS threats, offering organizations a clear view of their firmware's integrity and settings. This development is part of CrowdStrike's broader mission to prevent breaches by exposing areas where attackers might hide, ensuring security measures extend to all computing layers.
