CrowdStrike Named a Leader in Attack Surface Management by Independent Research Firm

CrowdStrike ranks highest of all vendors in Current Offering category and earns the highest possible score in Market Presence category

AUSTIN, Texas--(BUSINESS WIRE)--CrowdStrike (NASDAQ: CRWD) today announced it has been named a Leader in The Forrester Wave™: Attack Surface Management Solutions, Q3 2024. CrowdStrike ranked highest of any vendor evaluated in the Current Offering category and received the highest possible score in the Market Presence category. CrowdStrike believes this position as a Leader demonstrates why customers are consolidating their cybersecurity stack on the AI-native CrowdStrike Falcon® cybersecurity platform, replacing fragmented point vulnerability management tools with the integrated platform approach of CrowdStrike Falcon® Exposure Management.

CrowdStrike Falcon Exposure Management delivers comprehensive visibility and AI-driven vulnerability prioritization across endpoints, networks and cloud environments, empowering organizations to proactively reduce risk and automate responses – and driving a 98% reduction in critical vulnerabilities. The Forrester report states that CrowdStrike “showcases exemplary approaches to innovation” through new features such as ITOps and GenAI enhancements, and “a superb analyst experience.”

Built on ExPRT.AI, CrowdStrike’s patented technology for risk-based vulnerability prioritization, CrowdStrike’s latest innovations include Network Vulnerability Assessment for continuous sensor-based scanning, and Attack Path Analysis to identify cross-domain exposures and attack paths to critical assets, enabling security teams to predict likely adversary behavior based on real-world activity and harden high-risk areas of exposure.

“As organizations operate increasingly complex IT environments, understanding and managing risk across every attack path is critical – stopping breaches starts with proactive security,” said Raj Rajamani, head of products, CrowdStrike. “To me, being recognized by Forrester as a Leader in attack surface management highlights the Falcon platform’s ability to consolidate the disjointed tools and data sources security teams must navigate to address this challenge. By taking an adversary approach based on real-world behavior, and consolidating on an integrated, AI-native platform, CrowdStrike is providing a more effective way for organizations to identify their most critical vulnerabilities everywhere – and stop breaches.”
