What you can see immediately
Why this matters
AI tools are becoming part of everyday work, which means they are also becoming part of your attack surface. Every AI service your users connect to represents a potential pathway for data to leave your environment, whether intentionally or not.
Understanding AI usage is the first step toward managing it. With visibility, you can have informed conversations about acceptable use, identify shadow AI adoption before it becomes a compliance issue, and make risk based decisions grounded in real data rather than assumptions.
The goal is not to block AI outright. It is to know what is happening so you can govern it appropriately.

Sample output
This is what the built in AI Service Usage Monitoring dashboard looks like in CrowdStrike Next Gen SIEM.
Key takeaway
AI risk does not require a new platform. CrowdStrike customers already have the visibility needed to understand, monitor, and govern AI usage. The value comes from knowing where to look and how to operationalize it.
