- The Falcon platform's proprietary Threat Graph processes over 1.8 trillion signals daily, enabling sub-250 millisecond response times and powering elite threat intelligence that underpins OverWatch threat hunting and Charlotte AI (the company's generative AI SOC automation tool, growing 6x year-over-year).
