AI-powered Risk-based Patching enables customers to identify, prioritize, and fix the vulnerabilities that matter most through a single unified platform

CrowdStrike announced Risk-based Patching with Falcon for IT, accelerating cybersecurity and IT consolidation on the Falcon platform. With the combination of AI-powered Risk-based Patching and Falcon Exposure Management, customers can identify, prioritize, and fix the vulnerabilities that matter most through a single console and workflow – accelerating safe, large-scale patching and expanding CrowdStrike’s platform leadership beyond cybersecurity.

“Adversaries exploit known vulnerabilities within minutes, yet most organizations are slowed by silos between security and IT that delay fixes and leave dangerous gaps,” said Elia Zaitsev, chief technology officer at CrowdStrike. “With Falcon for IT Risk-based Patching, we unify teams and processes with a shared, risk-prioritized view so they know what to fix first – and can actually fix it. This is the last mile of risk reduction, closing gaps that adversaries exploit by eliminating the silos that have slowed organizations for too long. With built-in safety controls we give teams the confidence to patch both quickly and safely at scale.”

Closing the Gap Between Security and IT

Vulnerability management is fragmented – not just by tools, but by teams and processes. Security relies on one set of tools to find vulnerabilities, while IT depends on another to deploy patches. This disconnect creates blind spots between what’s found and what’s fixed, duplicate agents that add complexity, and slow handoffs that give adversaries time to exploit unpatched systems. The result is that risk lingers while attackers move faster.

From Identification to Remediation on One Platform

CrowdStrike eliminates the silos between security and IT. Falcon Exposure Management prioritizes vulnerabilities most likely to be exploited based on adversary activity and real-world attack paths. Falcon for IT Risk-based Patching turns this insight into action – applying AI-powered patching with Patch Safety Scores and sensor intelligence to rapidly remediate the risk safely. Together on the Falcon platform, they eliminate the gap between knowing where you’re exposed and fixing it, giving security and IT one unified workflow to reduce risk before attackers can exploit it.
