CrowdStrike Falcon Device Control

CrowdStrike released a new device control module to enable visibility into removable media activity, which the company said is critical for organizations looking to replace their legacy anti-virus with next-generation endpoint protection.

Falcon Device Control enables the safe utilization of USB devices across organizations by uniquely providing extensive visibility and granular control over those devices, the company said. It offers security and IT operations teams full understanding of how devices are being used, as well as the ability to precisely control and manage that usage.

Customers using Falcon Device Control have visibility into detailed device information and history, increased control over mass storage devices, and greater context into host activity to see what's happening in environments. This makes it easier for administrators to implement controls that protect critical data, the Sunnyvale, Calif.-based company said.
