The company says its Falcon platform enables organizations to detect, prevent and respond to attacks, at any stage – even malware-free intrusions – more effectively than traditional antivirus and malware-centric security solutions. CrowdStrike said it has seen massive deployments by Fortune 500 companies worldwide and that total billings have triple year-over-year.
The new funding round was led by Google Capital. Rackspace, a CrowdStrike customer, also participated in the round along with existing investors Accel and Warburg Pincus. This brings the company’s total funding raised to $156 million.
