AI is transforming how organizations operate, from automating workflows to fueling innovation and competitive advantage. It's the backbone of the modern enterprise.
But while the opportunities AI presents are enormous, they come with new risks: models can be stolen, cloud workloads can be hijacked, and data can be poisoned. Every layer of the AI stack - from GPUs and training data to inference pipelines and SaaS apps - is a new target. Most legacy security tools, which lack visibility into dynamic and autonomous AI systems, weren't built for this reality.
As enterprises adopt AI across endpoints, cloud workloads, data pipelines, SaaS applications, and AI agents, they need consistent visibility and control at every layer of the stack. The CrowdStrike Falcon® platform delivers exactly that: unified visibility across the AI stack, lifecycle defense from development through runtime, governance to prevent data leaks and enforce guardrails, and agentic defense with CrowdStrike® Charlotte AI™ to detect and respond at machine speed, giving enterprises the confidence to innovate securely.
By consolidating these capabilities in a single, proven platform, CrowdStrike enables enterprises to replace fragmented point tools with a unified approach while allowing innovation to move forward with speed, confidence, and trust.
For security leaders to unlock AI's potential, they must also secure the complete ecosystem it runs on. CrowdStrike's wide-ranging partnerships with leading AI providers AWS, Intel, Dell, Meta, NVIDIA, and Salesforce extend the protection of the Falcon platform across every enterprise environment.
Protect Every Layer of the AI Stack
AI security cannot be siloed. It requires protection across the complete AI ecosystem - from the infrastructure powering AI to the data it learns from, the models that drive it, and the agents and applications that put it into action. CrowdStrike is continuing to extend the Falcon platform's protection through deep partnerships with the world's AI leaders to integrate security throughout the ecosystem from Day One.
AI Infrastructure: NVIDIA and AWS
AI depends on powerful infrastructure, from GPU clusters that train models to cloud workloads that run them at scale. CrowdStrike secures this foundation through deep integrations with industry leaders NVIDIA and AWS.
The Falcon platform integrates its robust protection capabilities into the NVIDIA Enterprise AI Factory validated design, safeguarding GPU-powered AI factories globally. It defends high-performance AI services from advanced threats, secures sensitive workloads in compute environments, and keeps large-scale AI training protected. The Falcon platform's integration with NVIDIA NIM and NVIDIA NeMo microservices ensures full AI lifecycle protection across development, deployment, and runtime - delivering end-to-end coverage from tuning models to serving millions of inferences.
Meanwhile, CrowdStrike works closely with AWS to protect cloud-native AI pipelines with posture management, runtime defense, and real-time threat prevention. Together, we deliver unified visibility and consistent protection across global hybrid workloads. This enables enterprises to build, deploy, and run AI at any scale with confidence in their security across all stages.
Data: Intel and Dell
Data is the lifeblood of AI, and protecting it at the source is critical. Through a new integration with Intel, CrowdStrike Falcon® Data Protection will leverage Intel AI PC GPUs to perform AI-powered data classification in real time and use local AI processing on NPUs to scan files and detect sensitive data - without disrupting performance or user experience. Paired with the security of Dell's commercial AI PCs, which are already integrated with Intel and CrowdStrike, organizations gain an even stronger foundation for secure AI adoption with intelligent data protection built in at the source and extended across the enterprise.
AI Models: Meta
Large language models (LLMs) are powerful but can be unpredictable. Organizations need a way to feel confident about their reliability and efficacy before deployment. In partnership with Meta, CrowdStrike is paving the way to define reliable, consistent models for security by co-introducing CyberSOC Eval, the industry's first benchmark designed to measure LLM performance in real-world SOC conditions.
This collaboration helps security teams understand how models respond under pressure, assess resilience against adversarial inputs, and make informed choices about which models are most effective for their operations. This helps security leaders gain confidence and trust for accelerated model adoption.
Agents and Applications: Salesforce and NVIDIA
As enterprises adopt AI agents and embed them into SaaS workflows, visibility and governance become essential. CrowdStrike Falcon® Shield SaaS security continuously discovers and governs AI agents and applications across SaaS workflows. It maps each agent to its human creator, detects anomalous behavior, and enforces guardrails.
Through a new partnership with Salesforce, CrowdStrike integrates Falcon Shield into Salesforce Security Center and brings Charlotte AI into Agentforce for Security. This gives customers the needed visibility and control to protect their AI agents, workflows, and applications - uniting business and security teams on a foundation of trust.
With NVIDIA, the Falcon platform extends protection and governance across agents built using NVIDIA Nemotron models - the most open models that include open weights, datasets, and recipes, combined with leading efficiency and accuracy - and the NVIDIA NeMo Agent Toolkit. This enables enterprises to confidently deploy AI agents with safeguards for responsible and resilient operation.
At the top of the stack sits the SOC itself, reimagined with Charlotte AI. Charlotte AI delivers agentic defense through autonomous triage, cross-domain correlation, and machine-speed response, helping defenders move faster than adversaries and scale expertise without scaling headcount.
The Cybersecurity Backbone for the AI Era
AI is accelerating enterprise transformation and adversary operations. Every enterprise that embraces AI must secure it, or risk losing trust, control, and resilience.
CrowdStrike delivers the cybersecurity foundation for the AI-powered enterprise. With the Falcon platform, and deep partnerships with industry AI leaders including NVIDIA, AWS, Intel, Dell, Salesforce, and Meta, we protect the infrastructure, data, models, agents, and applications that power AI.
