Shadow AI is rapidly becoming a critical risk for enterprises as employees use and adopt AI tools outside the visibility of IT and security teams. These tools frequently bypass established security controls, creating blind spots that adversaries can exploit to access sensitive data or introduce misconfigurations that lead to breaches.
To close this gap, CrowdStrike and ExtraHop are giving SOC teams unified visibility and control over AI service usage across endpoints, networks, cloud environments, and on-premises infrastructure. By integrating deep network telemetry from ExtraHop with first- and third-party data from Falcon Next-Gen SIEM and automated remediation from Falcon Fusion SOAR, security teams can identify unauthorized AI models and agents, visualize usage patterns, and automate containment actions to reduce the risk of sensitive data exposure.

“Shadow AI has quickly emerged as a major security blind spot, often going undetected by legacy tools and exposing sensitive data,” said Daniel Bernard, chief business officer, CrowdStrike. “Together with ExtraHop, we’re delivering AI-native security and real-time network intelligence that empowers security teams to detect, stop and control unauthorized AI. This integration helps organizations embrace AI innovation without losing visibility, control or protection of sensitive data.”
“From the moment commercial AI services began to gain traction, ExtraHop recognized the vital role of network telemetry in providing crucial visibility into their burgeoning use across the enterprise,” said Kanaiya Vasani, chief product officer, ExtraHop. “Our deepening partnership with CrowdStrike allows us to build on this foresight, leveraging that visibility to deliver unparalleled insight into the broad spectrum of AI services in use today. Together, we offer organizations a streamlined solution for identifying and mitigating potential security risks from increasing use of AI tools across their environments.”
