CrowdStrike Named Frost & Sullivan\u2019s Company of the Year for Identity Threat Detection and Response<\/b><\/p>\n

Continuous, risk-aware identity security becomes the market standard as AI agents and non-human identities (NHIs) expose the limitations of fragmented, static access controls<\/i><\/p>\n

AUSTIN, Texas–(BUSINESS WIRE<\/a>)–CrowdStrike<\/a> (NASDAQ: CRWD) today announced it has been named Frost & Sullivan\u2019s 2026 Company of the Year for Identity Threat Detection and Response<\/a>. As AI agents transform how work gets done, operating with superhuman speed and access, this recognition validates CrowdStrike\u2019s leadership in advancing the market beyond static access controls with \u201ca next-generation identity model that enables continuous and content-aware dynamic authorization across human, non-human, and AI agent identities.\u201d \u2013 Deepali Sathe – Industry Principal, Frost & Sullivan.<\/b><\/p>\n

\n\u201cIdentity is the front line of modern attacks and AI is accelerating the threat at scale,\u201d said Elia Zaitsev, chief technology officer at CrowdStrike. \u201cAI agents operate as high-privilege identities with access to critical data, applications, compute resources, and other agents, exposing the risk of legacy access models built on static policies and standing privileges. CrowdStrike eliminates standing privileges and enforces real-time, risk-based access that can be dynamically revoked as conditions change, establishing Falcon Next-Gen Identity Security as the identity security control plane for the agentic enterprise.\u201d<\/p>\n

Identity Security for the Agentic Enterprise<\/b><\/p>\n

\nThe Falcon\u00ae Next-Gen Identity Security<\/a> business surpassed $520 million in ending ARR, growing more than 34% year-over-year.1<\/sup> CrowdStrike\u2019s ability to secure both human and agentic identities makes Falcon Next-Gen Identity Security the standard for identity security in the agentic enterprise.<\/p>\n

\nFrost & Sullivan stated, \u201cCrowdStrike\u2019s unified, cloud native platform that delivers end-to-end identity visibility, just in time privileges, behavioral analytics, and automated response across human and non-human identities enables a significant competitive advantage.\u201d<\/b><\/p>\n\n\n

\nKey findings from the Frost & Sullivan report include:<\/p>\n

Securing SaaS and AI Agents<\/b><\/p>\n

\nFrost recognized how CrowdStrike delivers \u201creal time visibility into AI and SaaS agents, including their permissions, data access, and activity, and can monitor how these identities interact with sensitive systems and datasets over time.\u201d<\/p>\n

Zero Standing Privileges<\/b><\/p>\n

\nFrost highlighted that \u201cunlike traditional role assignments or vaulting, Falcon Next-Gen Identity Security treats every user as potentially privileged, granting only need-based, real-time behavior and context aware access.\u201d<\/p>\n

End-to-End Identity Security<\/b><\/p>\n

\nFrost praised CrowdStrike\u2019s protection across the identity lifecycle, from phishing resistant MFA<\/a> to enabling customers to use \u201cSOAR workflows to automatically reset compromised passwords, remediate risky accounts in batches, and enforce conditional access or privilege controls based on real time risk scores.\u201d<\/p>\n

Unified Outcomes<\/b><\/p>\n

\nFrost recognized CrowdStrike for delivering a \u201cunified, cloud-native platform that treats identity as a first-class security signal alongside endpoints, cloud, and data.\u201d And noted that \u201cthe leadership team\u2019s focus in translating megatrends into a coherent product strategy rather than a set of disjointed features is evident as the company builds a model of zero trust access for every identity.\u201d<\/p>\n
