The Leader in Identity Security Innovation
CrowdStrike received the highest position in Innovation among all vendors evaluated by KuppingerCole. We believe this is a testament to our cutting-edge capabilities, including advanced AI and ML-driven detections, behavioral analytics, automated identity-centric response actions, and deception-based defenses.
The cloud-native architecture of Falcon Next-Gen Identity Security provides unmatched scalability and speed, allowing organizations to stay ahead of adversaries with minimal on-premises footprint. “Delivered via a single lightweight Falcon sensor, CrowdStrike’s architecture ensures real-time detection and automated response to threats across endpoint, cloud, SaaS, and identity environments,” KuppingerCole said in its report.
KuppingerCole emphasized how Falcon Next-Gen Identity Security provides visibility into identity environments spanning Active Directory, Entra ID, Okta, Ping, and AWS IAM Identity Center, as well as SaaS applications through CrowdStrike Falcon® Shield. Falcon Next-Gen Identity Security also offers a classification framework to distinguish human and non-human identities, including service accounts and AI agents, applying AI-driven behavioral and attribute-based models.
The breadth of CrowdStrike’s detection capabilities is also highlighted: “Falcon Next-Gen Identity Security delivers broad, production-grade coverage across Discovery, Visibility, Posture, Detection and Correlation, Incident Investigation, Automated Response, and Recovery, with deep integrations into XDR, SIEM, SOAR, IdPs, IGA, PAM, and ITSM systems.”
