Dell Technologies (NYSE: DELL) and CrowdStrike (Nasdaq: CRWD) have announced an expansion in their strategic partnership to offer Dell’s MDR services with the CrowdStrike Falcon® XDR platform, a leading industry and AI-native platform. This collaboration helps customers defend against increasingly complex cyberattacks.
According to the CrowdStrike Global Threat Report 2024, cyberattacks are faster, more sophisticated, and stealthier than ever. At the same time, organizations are being forced to do more with less as the cybersecurity skills gap widens. To protect against modern threats, customers need a comprehensive and intuitive managed security solution that reduces complexity and acts as a force multiplier for existing security and IT teams. The powerful combination of Dell’s global security operations experts and proactive threat hunting capabilities with the industry-leading Falcon platform provides the security customers need in multi-cloud and multi-vendor environments.
“Collaborating with industry leaders like CrowdStrike is crucial to offering options and flexibility to customers in a highly fragmented and complex security landscape,” said Mihir Maniar, Vice President of Infrastructure, Edge, and Security Services Portfolio at Dell Technologies. “Customers need scalable, results-based security solutions to stay ahead of increasingly sophisticated threats. The combination of MDR and the CrowdStrike platform empowers customers to exponentially reduce threat exposures, detect and respond to incidents, and recover applications and systems.”
“The Falcon platform has quickly become the market’s cybersecurity record platform. By expanding our strategic alliance with Dell to power their MDR services, we are reaching more customers to provide them with industry-leading protection,” said Daniel Bernard, Chief Commercial Officer at CrowdStrike. “Together with Dell, we see a significant opportunity to deliver the best security outcomes to all customers – from large enterprises to medium and small organizations: stopping the breach, consolidating point products, and reducing costs.”
Dell’s Managed Detection and Response Service is now available for global customers with the CrowdStrike Falcon XDR platform as a direct solution and through channel partners.
