CrowdStrike Named a Visionary in 2025 Gartner® Magic Quadrant™ for Security Information and Event Management

In just a year on the market, CrowdStrike is turning the vision for the agentic SOC into reality with Falcon Next-Gen SIEM.

We are thrilled to announce that CrowdStrike Falcon® Next-Gen SIEM has been named a Visionary in the 2025 Gartner Magic Quadrant for Security Information and Event Management (SIEM). Falcon Next-Gen SIEM is reimagining SIEM with AI, real-time data, and a unified platform approach, delivering the automation, speed, and control to transform SOC operations and power the agentic SOC.  

We believe this is an incredible moment for a product that has been available for just a year, demonstrating our rapid impact and foresight in an established market. 

The Future of Security Demands a New Foundation

The SIEM market is undergoing a rapid transformation. The limits of legacy SIEMs are being exceeded amid the escalating sophistication of AI-accelerated adversaries, systems sprawl driving unmanageable noise, and massive data volumes. Traditional systems struggle with ingestion bottlenecks, high costs, and delayed detections, forcing analysts into risk tradeoffs that create blind spots adversaries exploit. Security teams need a new way.  

Falcon Next-Gen SIEM is leading the charge as the modern, agentic SOC engine, unifying high-fidelity data, AI-driven detections, and adversary intelligence to deliver protection at machine speed. With Falcon Next-Gen SIEM, customers report experiencing:

  • 150x faster search for rapid detection and incident response1

  • Over 1PB/day of data ingestion, driving scale and full visibility2

  • Up to 80% cost savings to maximize ROI3

Organizations are leveraging its native, hyper-scalable data foundation to solve their most complex security and IT problems, replacing legacy SIEMs that are plagued by poor data ingestion and limited retention, complex workflows, delayed searches, and high costs.

With the acquisition of Onum, we are strengthening this foundation with real-time telemetry pipelines that enable the right data to reach the right place at the right time. Onum customers achieve up to 5x more events per second and up to 70% faster incident response.4 Combined with our AI innovations, Falcon Next-Gen SIEM sets a new standard for modern security. 

Innovations to Power the Agentic SOC 

Our visionary approach to transform SecOps in the AI-era was highlighted with the new agentic capabilities announced at Fal.Con 2025. These innovations are designed to address critical pain points that have plagued security operations for years, empowering analysts and accelerating their ability to stop breaches. 

Legacy SIEMs often struggle with adversary speed, fragmented tools, and slow search capabilities. Falcon Next-Gen SIEM's new AI innovations will directly tackle these issues, transforming security operations in the AI era:

  • Workflow Generation Agent: This agent acts as a conversational assistant for CrowdStrike Falcon® Fusion SOAR playbooks. It transforms complex playbook creation into an intuitive, natural language process, significantly streamlining automation.

  • Data Transformation Agent: Addressing the challenge of disparate data sources and siloed tools, this agent enables natural language data transformation within Falcon Fusion SOAR. It simplifies the often tedious process of preparing data for analysis and response.

  • Search Analysis Agent: Overcoming the limitations of slow and cumbersome search, this agent brings conversational intelligence to advanced event search. Analysts can ask natural language questions about their security data and receive instant insights and analysis, making advanced event analysis accessible to all skill levels.

  • Correlation Rule Generation Agent: This agent dynamically generates and optimizes detection rules based on diverse threat intelligence. It bridges the gap between raw intelligence and actionable detections, ensuring that organizations can quickly adapt to new threats.

These AI innovations aren’t just standalone features. They infuse AI into every step of the analyst experience so teams can detect, investigate, and respond to threats with precision and speed. With CrowdStrike, defenders move from reactive to proactive — neutralizing adversaries in real time.

Market Momentum and Impact

We believe our placement as a Visionary, coupled with our groundbreaking AI innovations and the acquisition of Onum, demonstrates our rapid market growth and disruptive approach. Falcon Next-Gen SIEM is changing the way teams approach security operations. 

For customers, this means lightning-fast, petabyte-scale data ingestion and search, and deep adversary insight — all powered by the unified CrowdStrike Falcon® platform. Falcon Next-Gen SIEM is the agentic SOC engine that unifies leading adversary intelligence and cross-domain detections to search, hunt, detect, and autonomously eliminate threats faster and more effectively than ever before. 

“CrowdStrike does the heavy lifting so my team can focus on securing the business. Instead of stitching together tools, we’re making decisions based on real-time, correlated data.” 
–Emmet Koen, Senior Director of Cybersecurity Operations and North America Regional CISO at Mondelēz

Fighting Threats in the Wild

It’s one thing to discuss the capabilities powering Falcon Next-Gen SIEM — it’s another to see them in action. Real-time detection and response across identity, cloud, SaaS, and network layers is ideal for tracking agile, multi-domain adversaries like SCATTERED SPIDER, which evade traditional endpoint-centric security. The CrowdStrike Engineering team has documented how Falcon Next-Gen SIEM works in conjunction with key phases of this adversary’s kill chain.

Today’s adversaries are known to steal sensitive data and pursue identity-based attacks. The capabilities of the Falcon platform, including Falcon Next-Gen SIEM, are critical to defend against this activity. Our Engineering team has also taken deep dives into how Falcon Next-Gen SIEM detects data exfiltration techniques and aids in the defense of credential-based attacks. Earlier this year, a CrowdStrike Engineering blog post explained how Falcon Next-Gen SIEM helps defenders detect and respond to threats targeting vCenter.

As adversaries continue to evolve, Falcon Next-Gen SIEM is built to keep pace.

The Agentic SOC Engine

We are proud to be forging a new path for the SOC with our agentic Falcon platform, purpose-built to stop breaches. We believe the recognition as a Visionary in the 2025 Gartner Magic Quadrant for SIEM solidifies Falcon Next-Gen SIEM's accelerating market prominence and the momentum we’ve seen to date. 

Thank you to our customers and partners for helping us reach this milestone.
