Falcon Platform for Government Now Offers Falcon for XIoT to Secure Connected Assets

CrowdStrike has expanded its Falcon Platform for Government by introducing Falcon for XIoT, a FedRAMP High authorized solution designed to enhance the security of connected assets and critical infrastructure within federal agencies. This addition provides native visibility and protection for both IT and operational technology (OT) environments, addressing the growing attack surface created by IoT devices in critical sectors such as public health and power grid controls. Falcon for XIoT employs AI-powered risk prioritization to help agencies identify and mitigate vulnerabilities in legacy systems and unsupported devices, enhancing security without disrupting operations. The platform also extends its AI-native endpoint detection and response capabilities to XIoT assets, ensuring continuous threat detection and response across unmanaged devices. By unifying IT and OT security measures, CrowdStrike aims to reduce fragmentation and blind spots in federal cybersecurity efforts, providing comprehensive protection against sophisticated threats and establishing a foundation for securing future connected government systems.
