CrowdStrike Falcon® for XIoT

OT security without disruption

Gain real-time visibility and stop threats across industrial systems from one unified platform.

Protect uptime across connected OT environments

Operational technology (OT) expands the attack surface. CrowdStrike delivers the unified visibility and risk management to secure it.

Maintain operational continuity

See every OT asset and act on the risks that impact critical industrial infrastructure.
Accelerate OT threat response

Detect and contain threats faster across production, remote sites, and connected operational infrastructure.
Align IT and OT security

Unify visibility, workflows, and risk management across enterprise and operational environments.

Secure complex OT environments at scale


Identify hard to reach devices, protect legacy assets, and reduce operational risks across industrial environments.

Uncover asset blind spots across critical OT systems


Gain continuous asset visibility across managed and unmanaged assets without additional hardware or disruptive scanning. Maintain device uptime with an accurate, real-time inventory, asset network mapping, and risk prioritization.

Prioritize OT risks by operational impact


Identify vulnerabilities across legacy and modern OT systems and focus remediation on the risks that matter most to operations. Help security and plant teams reduce exposures without creating downtime or production delays.

Streamline IT and OT security operations


Break down silos between IT and OT teams with shared visibility, consistent security controls, and a centralized detection approach. Reduce operational complexity with extended sensor support, legacy system support, and coordinated response efforts.

FAQs for OT Security

CrowdStrike Falcon for XIoT extends the CrowdStrike Falcon® platform to secure OT, Industrial Control Systems (ICS), and IoT environments with unified visibility, threat detection, and risk monitoring across IT and operational systems. It provides visibility into industrial assets, monitors device communications, and helps detect threats across both IT and OT environments from a unified platform.

OT systems often can’t tolerate downtime or intrusive scanning. CrowdStrike addresses this with lightweight architecture and zero-touch discovery capabilities that safely identify assets without requiring heavy agents, manual configuration, or disruptive network scanning. Falcon for XIoT also provides support for legacy assets, a long-term visibility (LTV) sensor that is purpose-built for ICS systems where standard sensor policy updates may not be feasible, and an OT software proxy to enable access without opening up your entire network.

Yes. CrowdStrike can integrate with OT-focused platforms to combine or enrich OT asset visibility and threat intelligence. With Falcon for XIoT and CrowdStrike Next-Gen SIEM, SOC teams can correlate IT and OT activity in one platform to reduce noise and respond faster to operational disruptions.

Falcon for XIoT identifies and protects operational technology systems that are commonly used across manufacturing, energy, utilities, healthcare, transportation, and critical infrastructure sectors. The platform has obtained validation by the leading ICS vendors to ensure safe, accurate asset discovery across critical systems. Falcon for XIoT discovers operational assets such as:

  • ICS
  • Supervisory Control and Data Acquisition (SCADA) systems
  • Programmable Logic Controllers (PLCs)
  • Distributed Control Systems (DCS)
  • Human Machine Interfaces (HMIs)
  • Industrial IoT (IIoT) devices
  • Smart sensors and more
