For us to replicate that without that partnership would require the hiring of anywhere from size to 10 new full-time employees." - Tony Young Chief Information Officer, State of Wyoming

WHAT OUR CUSTOMERS SAY ABOUT US

"CrowdStrike is helping the State of Oklahoma strategically address the cybersecurity challenges of Covid-19. Specific areas of support include adopting new best practices for a remote workforce, providing modern endpoint detection and response capabilities, and protecting them from new and unprecedented cyber threats. This is allowing the Oklahoma State Government to focus on running the state's business and helping state agencies continue to serve Oklahoma residents and the business community."

Matt Singleton

CISO, Office of Management and Enterprise Services

"The CrowdStrike Falcon platform provides amazing value. The agents are truly lightweight and cover multiple OS across differing architectures, enabling us to choose a single solution rather than multiple point products. It is important that our IT infrastructure deliver reliable service 24/7/365. This enables the business and offers peace of mind. The value is in saving time as the platform delivers actionable intelligence and the dashboards are easy to use. Our security staff can dial-in threats quickly and take the appropriate action. The intuitive dashboards help us demonstrate ROI to business stakeholders, traditionally a challenge for CISOs. Keep up the great work!"

Chief Information Security Officer

State Board of Elections

"We’re part of the global collection of organizations using the CrowdStrike Falcon platform and through the exchange of intelligence, we’re all effectively cooperating on security. If any of us detects suspicious behavior, CrowdStrike analyzes the threat and propagates preventative controls to everyone."

Scott Stoops

"I don’t want just to be sold something, I want a partnership where we can work and grow together. I continue to promote CrowdStrike because this is exactly the relationship we have built."
