What CrowdStrike Falcon for Mobile is

CrowdStrike Falcon for Mobile extends CrowdStrike endpoint security to Android and iOS devices. If your laptops and servers are already protected by CrowdStrike Falcon, it brings your phones into the same platform.

It is licensed as an add-on to a CrowdStrike Falcon bundle, per mobile device.

What it detects

In CrowdStrike's terms, Falcon for Mobile:

Detects suspicious activity and links in texts, email, browsers and QR codes
Blocks malicious links and unauthorised domains
Uncovers mobile malware, network disruption and jailbroken devices
Works across device types: fully managed, BYOD and personal devices

CrowdStrike states that Falcon for Mobile does not read or scan personal texts, emails or photos, which helps when staff use their own phones for work.

Deploying through your MDM

Falcon for Mobile deploys through your existing UEM or MDM tools, with zero-touch enrolment, so users do not have to install and set it up themselves. That makes it a good fit if you already manage phones with Microsoft Intune, IBM MaaS360, Sophos Mobile or another MDM.

If you need an MDM first, see mobile device management and security for the options we supply, and zero-touch enrolment for how new phones can arrive ready to use.

Is CrowdStrike Falcon for Mobile the right fit for you?

We will check it against your systems and requirements and recommend the right option.

Who it suits

Falcon for Mobile is a natural choice when:

You already use CrowdStrike Falcon on laptops and servers and want phones in the same console
Staff use personal phones for work, and you need protection that respects their privacy
Phishing by text and QR code is a concern for your teams
You run an MDM and want threat defence deployed through it

Pair it with a written company mobile phone policy so staff know what is protected and why.

Licensing

Falcon for Mobile is an add-on to a CrowdStrike Falcon bundle, licensed per mobile device, through our software licensing service; see CrowdStrike Falcon for Mobile licensing. Licensed software can be billed monthly, with terms confirmed at quote.
