Dell Technologies and CrowdStrike have expanded their partnership to deliver Dell’s Managed Detection and Response (MDR) services with the AI-native CrowdStrike Falcon XDR platform, helping customers defend against complex cyberattacks.
According to the 2024 CrowdStrike Global Threat Report, cyberattacks are faster, more sophisticated and stealthier than ever. At the same time, organisations are forced to do more with less as the cybersecurity skills gap grows.
To protect against modern threats, customers need a holistic, intuitive managed security solution that reduces complexity and serves as a force multiplier for existing security and IT teams.
The combination of Dell’s global security operations experts and proactive threat hunting capabilities with the industry-leading Falcon platform delivers the security customers need across multi-cloud and multi-vendor environments.
“Working with industry leaders like CrowdStrike is critical to delivering choice and flexibility to customers in a very fragmented and complex security landscape,” says Mihir Maniar, vice-president of infrastructure, edge and security services portfolio, Dell Technologies. “Customers need scalable, outcome-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.”
Daniel Bernard, chief business officer at CrowdStrike, adds: “The Falcon platform has quickly become the market’s cybersecurity platform of record. By expanding our strategic alliance with Dell to power their MDR services, we’re gaining access to more customers to bring them industry leading protection.”
“Together with Dell, we see a significant opportunity to give all customers – from large enterprises, to mid-market organizations and SMBs – the best security outcomes: stopping the breach, consolidating point products and driving down costs.”
