CrowdStrike (NASDAQ: CRWD) has been recognized as a Leader in the 2025 IDC MarketScape: Worldwide Exposure Management report. The company's Falcon Exposure Management solution stands out for its ability to unify proactive exposure management and threat detection in a single platform, providing continuous cross-domain visibility and automated workflows to help defenders prioritize and remediate exposures. This approach eliminates fragmentation and blind spots, empowering security teams to anticipate attack paths and reduce risk.

The IDC MarketScape report highlights several strengths of CrowdStrike's Falcon Exposure Management. A single agent enables continuous monitoring using the same console as other Falcon products, minimizing operational overhead and eliminating the need for dedicated scanners or on-premises infrastructure. The solution leverages a single, lightweight agent for both endpoint and network scanning, reducing the need for separate third-party solutions. Additionally, CrowdStrike's Charlotte AI agents work together to find and fix exposures more quickly without human input, enhancing the efficiency of vulnerability management.

The Falcon Exposure Management platform harmonizes first-party and third-party vulnerability scanner data with the company's own attack surface management and other security posture management tools. It is delivered as a SaaS platform with no additional infrastructure required, making it easy to deploy and operate. Security teams are often inundated with alerts, and legacy vulnerability management tools that indiscriminately flag every vulnerability only compound the noise. What matters is knowing how adversaries operate, the attack paths they’re most likely to take, and the exposures they will actually exploit. Falcon Exposure Management applies patented AI and agentic capabilities to deliver the clarity defenders need to anticipate adversary movement and proactively mitigate risk.

CrowdStrike's Falcon Exposure Management is part of the company's broader strategy to redefine modern security with its cloud-native platform for protecting critical areas of enterprise risk – endpoints and cloud workloads, identity and data. Powered by the CrowdStrike Security Cloud and world-class AI, the Falcon platform leverages real-time indicators of attack, threat intelligence, evolving adversary tradecraft, and enriched telemetry to deliver hyper-accurate detections, automated protection, and remediation.
