GEC NEWS WIRECrowdStrike and Cloudflare have expanded their strategic partnership to enhance security from devices to networks and accelerate SOC transformation. By combining Cloudflare One’s Zero Trust protection and connectivity with CrowdStrike Falcon®’s AI-native cybersecurity and Next-Gen SIEM on the Falcon® XDR platform, they enable joint partners to consolidate vendors and reduce costs and operational complexity for customers globally.
Adversaries are moving faster across expanding threat vectors, making it difficult for organizations to manage numerous cybersecurity tools and alerts, often leading to complex and compromised networks. Gartner® notes that the growing number of security tools increases the challenge of creating a coherent security strategy. Organizations need an AI-powered cybersecurity platform that connects remote users, offices, and data centers, converging data, security, and IT with workflow automation to prevent lateral movement of adversaries.
CrowdStrike and Cloudflare are leveraging channel partnerships to deliver a fully integrated solution to global customers from a single API. The powerful combination of XDR from the Falcon platform with Zero Trust protection from Cloudflare delivers the full-scope capabilities SOC teams need to detect and respond to attacks across network, devices, endpoints, cloud, identity, data, and applications.
“CrowdStrike revolutionized cybersecurity with a modern, AI-native platform focused on stopping the breach. Our ability to execute on this mission and continually innovate across critical areas of enterprise risk is why we’re recognized as cybersecurity’s born in the cloud leader by industry analysts and customers,” said Daniel Bernard, Chief Business Officer at CrowdStrike.
“It’s becoming too complex for enterprises to effectively and efficiently manage risk posture with today’s expanding threat landscape. There is a significant need for organizations to enforce holistic and robust protections across their networks as attack vectors are only growing in size and sophistication,” said Grant Bourzikas, Chief Security Officer at Cloudflare.
