# Setting up CrowdStrike Falcon for Computer

> Set up CrowdStrike Falcon to monitor activity and block threats in Computer’s cloud sandboxes according to your organization’s Falcon policies.

CrowdStrike Falcon monitors activity and blocks threats in Computer’s cloud sandboxes according to your organization’s Falcon policies.

The integration is available to all organizations. Falcon runs in Computer’s cloud sandboxes; it is not installed on users’ local devices.

## Before you begin

* Organization admin access in Perplexity.
* A CrowdStrike Customer ID (CID), including its checksum. Find it on the **Sensor Downloads** page in your Falcon console. See [CrowdStrike’s guide](https://www.crowdstrike.com/tech-hub/endpoint-security/installing-falcon-sensor-for-linux/).
* A provisioning token, if configured in your CrowdStrike environment.

## Configure the required sensor version

Before enabling the integration, configure the default Linux sensor update policy in your Falcon console:

**1. Open the Linux sensor update policy**

Open **Sensor Update Policies**, select **Linux**, and open the **default policy**.

**2. Pin both sensor versions**

Explicitly set both **Sensor version** and **Linux ARM64 sensor version** to **7.38.0-19105**.

**3. Save the policy**

Save your changes to the default policy.

> [!NOTE]
>
> Both version fields must be pinned to **7.38.0-19105**. Newer sensor versions will be supported once they are tested.

## Enable Falcon for your organization

**1. Open Computer Configuration**

In Perplexity, open **Organization Settings** and select [**Computer Configuration**](https://www.perplexity.ai/account/org/computer).

**2. Save your Customer ID**

Find the **CrowdStrike Falcon** section. Enter your **Customer ID**, including its checksum, and select **Save**.

**3. Supply a provisioning token if configured**

If your CrowdStrike environment has a provisioning token configured, enter it and select **Save token**.

**4. Enable CrowdStrike Falcon**

Enable **CrowdStrike Falcon** for your organization.

## Verify sandbox registration

After enabling the integration:

1. Start a **new Computer session**.
2. Open **Host Management** in your Falcon console.
3. Look for hosts with the **Hostname** `space-sandbox`.

New Computer sessions register their sandboxes with your CrowdStrike environment. It can take about one minute for a sandbox to appear in Host Management.

## How changes affect existing sessions

Enabling or disabling the integration applies to **new Computer sessions**. Existing sessions retain their previous Falcon setting.

* **When you enable Falcon:** start a new session to use the integration. Existing sessions without Falcon remain unchanged.
* **When you disable Falcon:** new sessions will not register with Falcon. Existing sessions that use Falcon retain their setting.
