CrowdStrike and Nord Security announced a strategic partnership to redefine SMB cybersecurity. The collaboration combines CrowdStrike's AI-native Falcon®? platform with Nord Security's secure access and credential management solutions to deliver enterprise-grade protection that's simple, accessible, and built for every business.
challenge by limited budgets and cyber security expertise, CrowdStrike's State of SMB Cybersecurity Survey shows just 36% of small and midsize businesses are investing in new tools, and only 11% have adopted AI-powered defenses. At the same time, adversaries are increasingly targeting smaller organizations with enterprise-level attacks. This partnership directly addresses that gap, seamlessly giving SMBs access to the AI-powered protection, intelligence, and speed trusted by the world's largest enterprises.
The partnership introduces two key innovations: Simplified e-commerce access: Nord Security will offer Falcon®? Go, CrowdStrike's AI-powered solution purpose-built for SMBs, and Falcon®? Enterprise directly through NordLayer, a toggle-ready network security platform for business, pairing the power of the Falcon platform with NordLayer's secure access to make enterprise-grade protection easy to buy and deploy.
Expanded MSP offerings through Pax8: CrowdStrike, Nord Security, and Pax8 will launch an add-on for Falcon®? Next-Gen SIEM that combines speed, detection and accuracy of the Falcon platform with Nord Security's secure Access and network solutions, including 90 days of free access for qualifying customers.
