Installation

Windows

Download the Falcon sensor from the Falcon Main view hub.

Paste in the Customer ID and install.

After a little while, Falcon has been installed successfully, no restart required.

The Windows Server 2025 virtual machine now appears in the list of active hosts.

Debian

Proceeded to Linux installation page.

Downloaded the correct version for my Debian 12 host.

Installed the Falcon sensor package file using apt.

Applied the Customer ID to the configuration. Started and enabled the falcon-sensor system daemon, so that the service is always running.

Refreshing the list of devices...

Debian host vbox has been added successfully.

The Host dashboard shows me an overview of all the types of devices that are communicating with the SIEM. In this case, I want to see the Linux-based hosts in more detail...

...Which takes me to the Host management page, filtered by the Linux platform. Here, I can see detailed information about the Debian host I just added.
