Key Facts

  • High-risk detections automatically trigger step-up biometric checks through CLEAR1.
  • The integration is embedded in Falcon Next-Gen SIEM and Charlotte Agentic SOAR.
  • Identity proofs are corroborated against endpoint telemetry to surface compromised credentials.

Card Text

Placing person-level verification inside the detection pipeline treats identity as runtime telemetry rather than a gate crossed once at login. It targets the case endpoint security handles worst, where valid credentials are being used by the wrong person.
