CrowdStrike and Mandiant announced a strategic partnership that will help joint customers investigate, remediate and defend against increasingly sophisticated cyber security events that plague organisations globally.
As part of the collaboration, Mandiant is set to utilise the CrowdStrike Falcon platform and subscription offerings for its incident response (IR) services and proactive consulting engagements for joint customers. Additionally, the Mandiant Managed Defence offering intends to include support for customers leveraging the Falcon platform later this year.
CrowdStrike and Mandiant have long operated under the practice that in order to defend against tenacious cyber adversaries, there must be a combination of cutting edge products and cyber security experts.
Today’s complex threat environment calls for a collaborative approach that brings together industry-leading technologies and world class teams to build the strongest defence for customers, which is exactly what this partnership is about, according to George Kurtz, co-founder and chief executive officer of CrowdStrike.
“CrowdStrike has worked with Mandiant many times over the years and there is a mutual respect for the calibre of technical and team expertise we both bring to the fight.
“We are proud to establish this alliance with them and to more effectively enable the people, processes and procedures necessary to secure the modern organisation,” Kurtz said.
Both companies have embraced an open and collaborative approach with partners and technologies to provide bolstered protection offerings.
Kevin Mandia, chief executive officer of Mandiant commented that CrowdStrike and Mandiant have developed reputations as go-to cyber security resources for public and private sector entities across the globe.
“This partnership between two mission-focused companies strengthens cyber defences at a time when cyber attacks have become a notable business issue faced by organisations every day,” Mandia concluded.
