CrowdStrike Falcon for Mobile vs Deep Instinct Prevention Platform

CrowdStrike Falcon for Mobile extends endpoint security to business Android and iOS devices. It detects suspicious activity and links in texts, emails, browsers, and QR codes without reading or scanning their contents. It can block malicious links and unauthorized domains, and surface malware, network disruptions, spoofed identities, jailbroken devices, insider threats, and accidental data exposure. A central console displays mobile activity and device trust posture. Deployment supports zero-touch enrollment and existing unified endpoint management and mobile device management tools, with fully managed, BYOD, and personal unmanaged modes available. FalconID, delivered through the app, provides phishing-resistant multifactor authentication with real-time risk-based access decisions. Built-in blocklisting can act on malicious IPs, and Falcon Fusion enables custom incident-response workflows. Zero Trust Assessment covers iOS and Android, with an integration to Device Trust from Android Enterprise. Plans include Falcon Go at $7.99 per device per month, capped at 100 devices; Falcon Pro at $14.99 per device per month; and Falcon Enterprise at $19.99 per device per month. A 15-day free trial requires no credit card.

Deep Instinct Prevention Platform, or DSX, provides real-time prevention and explainability for zero-day threats across cloud, NAS, applications, and endpoints. Its DSX Brain is trained on raw data and is designed to prevent threats without signatures or heuristics. The product page claims greater than 99% unknown-threat accuracy, a false-positive rate below 0.1%, and malware prevention in under 20 milliseconds. DSX Companion, also called DIANNA, gives security teams real-time threat explanations and AI-driven insights. DSX for NAS scans files at rest or in motion and can quarantine or delete malicious files. Cloud coverage includes Amazon S3, Amazon FSx for NetApp, and Microsoft Azure. Endpoint integrations include SIEM, SOAR, and EDR tools, with use cases featuring Microsoft Defender and Tanium; listed native NAS integrations include Dell CAVA and NetApp Vscan. Deep Instinct says verdict-making requires no cloud lookups or external threat feeds, keeping sensitive data within the environment for that process. The company states it is SOC 2 Type II certified, with its report available upon request. Pricing is available on request; support depends on the purchased bundle and is offered only in English.
