CrowdStrike Falcon Guardian is CrowdStrike's flagship AI detection and response (AIDR) solution, delivering unified AI visibility, governance, runtime protection, investigation, and response. Falcon Guardian extends CrowdStrike's runtime security architecture into the agentic layer, connecting agent and AI activity with endpoint execution to establish a direct causal chain from prompt to agentic runtime processes. Falcon Guardian secures both workforce adoption of agents and AI tools as well as enterprise-developed agents and AI systems, securing AI across endpoint, cloud, and SaaS environments.
What features enhance Falcon Guardian?
- Shadow AI & Agent Discovery: Continuously discovers known and unknown agents, mapping where they operate and who deployed them, prioritized by risk score.
- Granular AI Governance & Access Control: Enforces contextual policies across users, agents, and models, sanctioning approved agents and blocking disallowed ones.
- Sensitive Data Protection: Detects and blocks PII, credentials, secrets, source code, and confidential data across AI interactions.
- Prompt Injection & AI Threat Detection: Detects direct and indirect prompt injections, jailbreaks, and malicious agent behavior, including unauthorized MCP activity.
- Enterprise AI Development Protection: Applies runtime guardrails to enterprise-developed agents and AI workloads via SDKs, AI gateway and cloud integrations.
- Investigation & Automated Containment: Traces prompts to runtime impact and automatically contains compromised agents, with full audit trails for compliance.
What benefits should users expect?
- Discover shadow AI: Continuously surface approved and unknown AI agents and AI tools, understanding where they operate, who deployed them, and where risk exists.
- Enforce AI governance at scale: Turn AI governance policy into technology-enforced controls, governing supported AI use and protecting sensitive data to maintain compliance and prevent accidental breaches.
- Stop agentic breaches at runtime: Stop attacks like prompt injection against both third-party agents deployed on the endpoint and enterprise-developed agents hosted in the cloud and prevent both accidental agentic data leaks and adversary attacks on AI.
- Accelerate AI threat investigation and containment: Detect AI-specific threats, reconstruct agent execution, investigate blast radius, and respond before threats spread across the environment with telemetry flowing natively into Falcon Next-Gen SIEM for cross-domain correlation without added ingest costs or normalization overhead.
Falcon Guardian can be extended with expert-led managed detection and response and proactive threat hunting through Falcon Complete for Guardian and Falcon Adversary OverWatch for Guardian. CrowdStrike Falcon Guardian is deployed across industries such as financial services, healthcare, and manufacturing, where organizations need continuous, high-fidelity AI threat detection and rapid response. By combining AI-powered automation with expert analyst support, organizations in these sectors can defend against sophisticated AI-specific attacks while optimizing the efficiency and effectiveness of their security operations.
Radware Agentic AI Protection is a service that helps organizations discover, govern, and secure the AI agents operating across their environment, including unsanctioned "shadow AI" such as external services like Perplexity used without approval. It continuously maps agents, tools, and their access to enterprise resources such as databases and file repositories, and provides governance reporting aligned with frameworks like ISO 42001, the NIST AI Risk Management Framework, and the EU AI Act. The service evaluates AI risk posture across agents and tools, identifying sensitive data exposure and potential attack paths. It provides real-time, intent-aware behavioral protection against threats specific to autonomous AI systems, including prompt injection, agent behavior hijacking, tool misuse, memory poisoning, and supply chain attacks between agents. It integrates with agent platforms such as Microsoft Copilot, Azure AI Foundry, AWS Bedrock, Anthropic Claude Code, OpenClaw, and N8N.
Radware Agentic AI Protection software utilizes a subscription-based pricing model, typically structured according to the scale and features required by the organization. Pricing may vary based on factors such as deployment size and the range of protection offered, with options for annual or multi-year terms. The software provides flexibility in coverage and can be integrated into broader Radware security solutions to suit different enterprise needs.
