CrowdStrike Wins SC Award Europe for Best Enterprise Security Solution

The CrowdStrike Falcon® platform garners best Enterprise Security Solution for both the 2018 SC Awards and SC Awards Europe

Sunnyvale, CA – June 6, 2018 – CrowdStrike, the leader in cloud-delivered endpoint protection, today announced that the company was recognized by the 2018 SC Awards Europe as the Best Enterprise Security Solution. This industry honor arrives on the heels of company recognition for the same accolade by the 2018 US SC Awards. CrowdStrike has also been named Best Security Company two years in a row by the US SC Media Awards. Earlier this week, CrowdStrike announced the launch of the EPP Complete warranty program, offering up to $1 million if a breach occurs within the protected environment.

The SC Awards Europe are recognized as Europe’s industry gold standard of accomplishment for cybersecurity professionals, products and services. The awards honor the achievements of companies and information security professionals who have proven to be the best in the industry in helping to protect organizations from the multifaceted cyber risks and threats they face on a daily basis.  Winners are chosen by an expert panel of judges selected for their information security experience and impartiality. The SC Awards Europe judges work for major European and global brands in a variety of industries.

“Being recognized as Best Enterprise Security Solution by both the SC Awards and SC Awards Europe validates CrowdStrike’s innovative approach to leverage the power of the cloud to defeat the adversary and stop breaches,” said George Kurtz, co-founder and chief executive officer of CrowdStrike. “CrowdStrike has experienced explosive growth in EMEA, and we are committed to providing our customers within the region and around the globe with the groundbreaking technology and services needed to properly safeguard themselves against modern cyber threats.”
