What CrowdStrike Falcon for Mobile is
CrowdStrike Falcon for Mobile extends endpoint security to Android and iOS devices, helping businesses address mobile threats. It detects suspicious activity and links in texts, emails, browsers, and QR codes without reading or scanning their contents. It can block malicious links and unauthorized domains, and identify malware, network disruptions, spoofed identities, jailbroken devices, insider threats, and accidental data exposure. A centralized console shows mobile activity and device trust posture. Deployment supports zero-touch enrollment and existing unified endpoint management and mobile device management tools. CrowdStrike says it does not read or scan personal data in texts, emails, or photos, and supports fully managed, BYOD, and personal unmanaged device modes. FalconID provides phishing-resistant multifactor authentication with real-time risk-based access decisions. Falcon for Mobile offers a 15-day trial with no credit card required. It is available for Android, iOS, and web.
