CrowdStrike Falcon offers several subscription-based bundles, each priced per device per year. As of the latest available information:
Each CrowdStrike Falcon bundle includes a different set of features:
The total cost of CrowdStrike Falcon depends on several factors:
CyCognito is a platform designed to help organizations manage and secure their external attack surface. It autonomously discovers, tests, and prioritizes external risks by simulating real attacks and surfacing only issues that are both exploitable and urgent. CyCognito focuses on protecting external digital footprints, including networks, web applications, cloud services, and APIs. Note: CyCognito is best suited for organizations seeking automated, outside-in attack surface management; teams needing deep internal endpoint protection may require additional tools.
CyCognito offers:
CyCognito integrates with leading security and IT platforms, including Armis, Palo Alto Networks, Tenable, Wiz, Axonius, CrowdStrike, Cobalt, JupiterOne, ServiceNow, Splunk, Zendesk, and Jira. Supported automation categories include vulnerability management, incident management, asset management, SIEM/SOAR/XDR, cloud security posture management, and ticketing solutions. Note: Integration availability may vary by platform version and customer environment.
CyCognito and CrowdStrike Falcon Surface both offer external attack surface management (EASM), but differ in several key areas:
Compared to Qualys, Tenable, and Microsoft Defender EASM:
CyCognito is designed for IT security teams, CISOs, and security operations teams in enterprises with complex infrastructures, government agencies, Fortune 500 companies, and organizations in industries such as gaming, media, education, hospitality, and telecommunications. It is especially valuable for organizations with untracked IP ranges, inherited assets, or third-party environments. Note: Organizations focused solely on internal endpoint protection may require additional solutions.
Customers can expect:
Examples include:
CyCognito is designed for rapid deployment and minimal setup. It features autonomous mapping, continuous discovery, and does not require agents or sensors. Most organizations can begin continuous discovery and validation immediately, with little manual configuration. Resources such as the Knowledge Center, Support Portal, and Customer Success Team are available to assist with onboarding. Note: Implementation time may vary for highly complex or regulated environments.
CyCognito provides datasheets and resources covering platform overview, automated security testing, discovery and contextualization, prioritization and remediation, exploit intelligence, vulnerability management, active security testing, remediation planning, cloud connector, customer success, and NIST 800-53 alignment. These are available in the Knowledge Hub. Note: Some technical documentation may require NDA or customer status for access.
CyCognito holds SOC 2 Type II and ISO 27001 certifications, demonstrating adherence to robust security controls and information security management practices. Reports are available for review under NDA. CyCognito also supports compliance with frameworks such as ISO27001:2022, NIST 800-171 R2, PCI-DSS v4, and CIS CSC, and provides a Privacy, Compliance, and Trust Center for transparency. Note: For detailed compliance mappings or reports, contact CyCognito directly.
Customers have praised CyCognito for its intuitive platform and ease of use. For example, Stefan Romberg (Global CISO) noted that CyCognito solved multiple pain points through automatic asset detection and continuous vulnerability analysis in an easy-to-use platform. Alex Schuchman (CISO, Colgate-Palmolive) highlighted global visibility and an easy-to-use interface. Darrell Jones (CISO) appreciated that CyCognito could be purchased to fix a specific problem without needing multiple products. Note: User experience may vary based on organization size and complexity.
CrowdStrike Falcon is a cloud-native endpoint security and workload protection platform offered through subscription-based bundles. Pricing is typically on a per-endpoint, per-year basis, with costs varying by feature set, deployment scale, and add-ons.
The main bundles include:
The following factors influence costs on the CrowdStrike Falcon platform:
CTEM breaks when it turns into vulnerability chasing. Too many issues, weak proof, and constant escalation…
This whitepaper offers a practical starting point for operationalizing CTEM, covering what to measure, where to start, and what “good” looks like across the core steps.

While both CrowdStrike Falcon Surface and CyCognito offer external attack surface management (EASM) capabilities, there are significant differences in approach, depth of automation, and risk validation.
CyCognito positions itself as a more comprehensive and autonomous platform, offering zero-input discovery and automated, unauthenticated security testing at scale. It offers a fully autonomous, zero-input platform with deep discovery, automated risk validation, and remediation planning, making it suitable for organizations seeking full visibility and precision without heavy manual input.
CrowdStrike Falcon Surface, based on its acquisition of Reposify, relies more heavily on passive discovery methods and customer-provided input, which can limit its ability to uncover unknown exposures. It provides foundational EASM capabilities and integrates with the broader Falcon ecosystem, but its reliance on manual configuration and passive discovery may limit visibility and effectiveness in dynamic environments.
Key comparison points:
| Feature | CyCognito | CrowdStrike Falcon Surface |
|---|---|---|
| Discovery Approach | Zero-input, autonomous discovery using OSINT and graph-based mapping | Requires seed data and manual tagging to identify assets |
| Testing Methodology | 100,000+ automated, unauthenticated black-box tests across OWASP Top 10, weak credentials, CVEs | Primarily passive scanning; lacks comprehensive agentless active testing |
| Coverage | Covers entire attack surface, including shadow IT, subsidiaries, SaaS, IaaS, and cloud environments | Limited to known assets and domain-based discovery |
| Risk Prioritization | Next-gen algorithm prioritizes <0.01% of issues as critical based on threat intelligence and exploitability | Limited by lack of active testing and contextual data |
| Remediation Tools | Includes automatic remediation validation, executive reporting, and integrations with tools like ServiceNow and Splunk | Lacks remediation validation and relies on manual reporting and export |
| Red Team Support | Accelerates red teaming with asset attribution and automated tests to reduce manual efforts | Requires red teams to spend time on basic asset discovery and testing |
| Business Context Mapping | Uses NLP and ML to automatically map organizations, subsidiaries, and asset ownership | Depends on customer input to identify business structure and related assets |
