Right from Day One, CrowdStrike has embraced a partner-first and community driven approach to protect customers against modern cyberattacks. It’s no secret that CrowdStrike has built a strong, diverse partner ecosystem to help mutual customers improve their security posture and stop breaches. CrowdStrike partners help extend our reach to a broader market, in addition to helping protect mutual customers through technology integrations and services that lead to comprehensive protection. Our partner ecosystem includes a broad set of partners that span across public cloud providers, solution providers, technology alliances, global system integrators (GSIs), managed security services partners (MSSPs) and more.

Beating cybercriminals by maintaining a healthy partner ecosystem is similar to high-performance auto racing. (Anyone following the F1 racing circuit knows that CrowdStrike has deep roots in racing and partnering with racing world legends, and we’re extremely proud to partner with seven-time world champion Formula One driver Lewis Hamilton and the Mercedes-AMG Petronas F1 team.) To beat racing competitors, it takes a combination of a well-oiled machine, a talented driver and a top-notch support crew. A small malfunction or missing part can make the difference between winning and losing a race — components such as fuel, tires or misaligned timing in the pit. Only the best-of-the-best working together will emerge victorious.

The CrowdStrike partner ecosystem is no different when it comes to beating cybercriminals — all partners are working together to stop breaches and improve our joint customers’ security posture, without slowing business or impacting productivity. We are proud of the high-performing extended team of CrowdStrike partners that has been built over the years to win against the adversaries.

Recently, two of our strategic partners publicly recognized the value of our partnerships. We are honored and humbled to be the recipient of these recognition awards. They represent the dedication and cooperation of our teams working together “in the trenches” to protect customers — and they further underscore the customer benefit we are providing in terms of technology, expertise and support.
