CrowdStrike launches Falcon AI Detection and Response to secure the AI prompt layer

Summary

CrowdStrike has announced the general availability of Falcon AI Detection and Response (AIDR), a new module in its Falcon platform aimed at securing the fast‑growing "prompt and agent interaction" layer of enterprise AI. The system monitors prompts, responses and agent actions in real time to block prompt injection, jailbreak attempts and risky AI use, while automatically detecting sensitive data before it can be sent to external models. CrowdStrike frames AIDR as extending its traditional EDR strengths into a full AI Detection and Response stack that covers data, models, agents, identities, infrastructure and interactions end‑to‑end. Strategically, this positions CrowdStrike as an early category owner in "AI security" at a time when enterprises are racing to deploy GenAI and agentic workflows but struggling with guardrails and compliance.([businesswire.com](https://www.businesswire.com/news/home/20251214418582/en/CrowdStrike-Announces-the-General-Availability-of-Falcon-AI-Detection-and-Response-to-Secure-the-New-AI-Attack-Surface))
