CrowdStrike Earns FedRAMP High Authorization to Protect U.S. Government and National Security Operations

CrowdStrike announced that the CrowdStrike Falcon platform has achieved Federal Risk and Authorization Management Program High Authorization, FedRAMP’s most rigorous security compliance standard. This designation makes the Falcon platform available to U.S. federal agencies, public sector organizations, the Defense Industrial Base and critical infrastructure entities that handle highly sensitive information to secure mission-critical systems and data against cyber threats. The CrowdStrike Falcon Platform for Government ensures compliance with the highest federal security standards while delivering industry-leading protection.

As nation-state and eCrime adversaries escalate attacks against federal systems and supply chains, U.S. agencies require real-time, AI-driven security to detect and stop breaches before they disrupt critical operations. With FedRAMP High Authorization, CrowdStrike delivers unified, cloud-native protection that eliminates security gaps and strengthens cyber resilience, while simplifying operations, streamlining compliance and reducing complexity—empowering organizations to stay ahead of evolving threats and defend mission-critical systems with confidence.

"The U.S. government operates in one of the most severe cyber threat environments, where securing mission-critical systems and maintaining compliance is increasingly complex,” said Michael Sentonas, president of CrowdStrike. “The Falcon platform simplifies security by unifying  endpoint, identity, data and cloud workload protection into a single, AI-powered platform, eliminating operational silos, accelerating response and delivering continuous visibility and protection across hybrid environments. With FedRAMP High authorization, agencies can deploy the Falcon platform to fortify the nation’s most critical systems against relentless cyber threats.”

CrowdStrike’s FedRAMP High authorization validates that the Falcon Platform for Government meets the NIST SP 800-53 Revision 5 FedRAMP High Impact Baseline, following rigorous third-party security assessments. The Falcon platform offers FedRAMP High authorization for nearly all of its products and services—covering 26 authorized offerings across endpoint, cloud, identity, next-gen SIEM, intelligence, vulnerability management, data protection and more. By consolidating critical security capabilities into one cloud-native platform, federal and public sector organizations can streamline compliance, eliminate redundant tools and reduce operational costs.
