CrowdStrike launched a series of AI-focused security innovations at its Fal.Con 2025 conference in Las Vegas, announcing partnerships with AWS, Intel, Meta, NVIDIA, and Salesforce while unveiling a major upgrade to its Falcon platform. The announcements underscore CrowdStrike’s ambition to position Falcon as the foundation of the “agentic SOC,” where AI models and autonomous agents become central to enterprise operations.
The company said the expanded Falcon platform now protects the entire AI lifecycle, from development in cloud environments and PCs to agent deployment inside SaaS platforms. Updates include new no-code tools for building AI security agents, mission-ready Falcon agents for high-impact SOC workflows, and Enterprise Graph – a unified AI-ready data layer designed to fuel automation. Meta, Salesforce, and NVIDIA each introduced integrations with Falcon that link their own AI systems directly into CrowdStrike’s protection model.
Highlights from the set of announcements:
- AWS: Native Falcon integration with Amazon SageMaker, Amazon Bedrock, and AWS Marketplace to secure AI workloads from build to runtime.
- Intel: Falcon Data Protection extended to Intel NPU technology and Dell AI PCs, aiming to secure data at the device level.
- Meta: Launch of CyberSOCEval, a new open source benchmark suite for evaluating LLMs in SOC environments.
- NVIDIA: Falcon platform integration with NVIDIA Nemotron open models and NeMo developer tools; Charlotte AI AgentWorks now enables no-code agent building powered by NVIDIA AI.
- Salesforce: Falcon Shield integrated with Salesforce Security Center; Charlotte AI embedded in Agentforce and Slack to protect AI agents and workflows.
- Falcon Platform Fall Release: introduction of Enterprise Graph, Charlotte AI AgentWorks, and new mission-ready AI agents across Falcon modules.
“Securing AI is not just about technology – it’s about securing the full ecosystem where AI is built, deployed, and used,” said Daniel Bernard, chief business officer at CrowdStrike.
🌐 Analysis: CrowdStrike is moving aggressively to define security standards for the agentic AI era, leveraging deep integrations with top cloud and enterprise platforms. The Meta benchmark initiative could influence how LLMs are tested in SOC workflows, while the NVIDIA integration points toward a future of AI-driven, machine-speed operations. Salesforce’s adoption highlights the growing need to monitor and govern AI agents in enterprise SaaS. With competitors such as Microsoft and Palo Alto Networks also embedding AI across their security stacks, CrowdStrike is racing to establish Falcon as the control plane for securing enterprise AI.
