FAQs
General
CrowdStrike Falcon® is a 100% cloud-native solution, offering unprecedented endpoint capabilities that scale and deliver on endpoint requirements like never before. Falcon requires no on-premises servers, databases or controllers to be installed, freeing you from the cost and hassle of managing, maintaining and updating on-premises software and hardware.
FedRAMP
The Federal Risk and Authorization Management Program (FedRAMP) is a government-wide program that provides a standardized approach to security assessment, authorization and continuous monitoring for cloud products and services. This approach uses a “do once, use many times” framework that reduces the cost, time, and staff required to conduct redundant security assessments across different agencies.
The CrowdStrike Falcon Platform for Government has been FedRAMP authorized since 2018. Previously at a Moderate, and since March 2025 at a High Impact Level.
For additional information, visit the CrowdStrike FedRAMP Marketplace listing.
Both FedRAMP and FISMA (Federal Information Security Management Act of 2002) use the NIST SP 800-53 security controls. The FedRAMP security controls are based on NIST SP 800-53 Revision 5 baselines and contain controls above the NIST baseline that address the unique elements of cloud computing. FedRAMP operates on a "do once, use many times" framework. This approach is designed to simplify and standardize the process of achieving FISMA compliance for Cloud Service Providers (CSPs).
CrowdStrike’s FedRAMP High authorization is sponsored by the Department of Justice.
For customers who are subject to FedRAMP or DoW Cloud SRG requirements, it greatly simplifies procurement of Falcon platform solutions and helps agencies improve services by migrating to the cloud. The FedRAMP and DoW cloud authorizations that CrowdStrike maintains and is pursuing are in alignment with the protection of controlled unclassified data as laid out in a variety of compliance programs including FedRAMP, DoW Cloud SRG, and NIST SP 800-171. Meeting these stringent requirements reinforces CrowdStrike’s commitment and ability to serve customers of all types by safeguarding their enterprises with the most effective endpoint protection platform and ultimately stopping breaches. Customers who are not subject to these requirements gain assurance, knowing that the Falcon platform has been audited and validated against some of the strictest security requirements in the world — they can move their endpoint security to the cloud with complete confidence.
Continuous Diagnostic and Mitigation (CDM) program
The CDM program is a dynamic approach to fortifying the cybersecurity of government networks and systems. The CDM program provides cybersecurity tools, integration services and dashboards to participating agencies to support them in improving their respective security posture. The CDM approach is consistent with guidance from the Office of Management and Budget (OMB) and the National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST) and helps meet federal reporting requirements. CDM offers industry-leading, commercial off-the-shelf (COTS) tools to support technical modernization as threats change. To start, agency-installed sensors are deployed and perform an ongoing, automated search for known cyber flaws. Results from the sensors feed into an agency dashboard that produces customized reports to alert network managers of their most critical cyber risks.
The CDM program enhances government network security through automated control testing and progress tracking. This approach:
- Provides services to implement sensors and dashboards
- Delivers rapid results
- Prioritizes the worst problems within minutes, versus quarterly or annually
- Enables defenders to identify and mitigate flaws at network speed
- Lowers operational risk and exploitation of government IT systems and networks
Additionally, for federal cyber investments, the CDM program fulfills Federal Information Security Management Act (FISMA) mandates.
Yes. CrowdStrike products, intelligence and services are listed on the CDM Approved Products List. For additional details on how CrowdStrike maps to CDM phases and functional areas, please contact your CrowdStrike representative.
