Small and medium-sized businesses (SMBs) face many of the same cybersecurity threats as large enterprises but often lack the resources to maintain robust security across all devices. As SMBs rely on a growing number of smartphones and tablets, they must defend against a range of mobile-focused cyberattacks.
The need for comprehensive security has never been more urgent. We're thrilled to announce CrowdStrike FalconĀ® for Mobile is now included in CrowdStrike FalconĀ® Go, CrowdStrike's endpoint protection bundle specifically designed to meet SMB needs. Android and iOS devices can now be protected by Falcon Go, along with Windows Mac and Linux devices.
This integration is a major step forward in protecting SMBs from mobile cyber threats. Here's what it means for your business.
Why Mobile Security Matters for SMBs
Mobile devices are indispensable in today's hybrid work environments. Employees use their smartphones and tablets to communicate, access corporate data and manage tasks on the go. But with this convenience comes risk. Mobile devices are prime targets for cybercriminals who seek to target businesses with phishing attacks, malware, vulnerability exploitation and more.
One compromised mobile device can lead to data breaches, ransomware attacks and unauthorized access to sensitive business data - all threats that SMBs cannot afford. In a 2024 survey of CrowdStrike's small business customers, 33% reported they would likely or definitely go out of business in the event of a cyberattack. Given many SMBs may not recover from a significant cyber incident, proactive protection is essential.
Falcon for Mobile addresses these risks by providing real-time, AI-driven mobile threat detection and response, all powered by CrowdStrike's cloud-native platform. With its inclusion in Falcon Go, SMBs now have access to mobile device protection in an all-in-one security solution that's easy to deploy, manage and scale.
Key Benefits of Falcon for Mobile in Falcon Go
Comprehensive Protection for All Devices: By bringing Falcon for Mobile to Falcon Go, we ensure SMBs' desktops, laptops and mobile devices are shielded from known and unknown threats.

AI-Powered Detection and Response: CrowdStrike's advanced machine learning models are designed to detect and respond to mobile threats in real time, ensuring threats like malware, phishing and unauthorized access are stopped before they can cause damage.

The addition of Falcon for Mobile doesn't add complexity - SMBs can easily set up and maintain protection, allowing them to focus on growing their business, not managing cybersecurity.

With Falcon for Mobile included in Falcon Go, SMBs can access enterprise-grade mobile security at a price point that fits their budget. They no longer have to compromise on mobile protection due to cost or complexity.
