CrowdStrike ranks number one globally for managed detection and response market share in Gartner report

CrowdStrike (Nasdaq: CRWD), a leader in cloud-delivered protection of endpoints, cloud workloads, identity and data, today announced that in 2021, it ranked number one for revenue in managed detection and response (MDR) for managed security services in Gartner’s new report: Market Share: Managed Security Services, Worldwide, 2021[1]. We feel this is yet another validation of CrowdStrike’s technology and services in leadership, innovation and global strategy.

“In today’s complex threat landscape, comprehensive managed detection and response remains mission-critical to help businesses defend their assets and operate efficiently. CrowdStrike’s innovative MDR strategy delivers a unique blend of technology and services that empower security teams worldwide. This approach, coupled with a partner programme that directly benefits from our platform and our MDR solution – and is structured to put customers at the centre – remains unmatched in the global fight against adversaries,” said Shawn Henry, chief security officer of CrowdStrike and president of CrowdStrike Services. “We believe being ranked in this Gartner Market Share report is a testament to CrowdStrike’s differentiated MDR service model and our steadfast commitment to help customers stop breaches.”

Falcon Complete’s industry-leading MDR provides customers of all sizes across the globe with powerful machine learning, behavioural-based detection, extensive telemetry and elite, managed threat hunting – all powered by an intelligent, single agent and cloud-native architecture. With unparalleled scalability, Falcon Complete deploys rapidly, protecting endpoints through powerful AI, comprehensive threat intelligence and 24/7/365 support by elite defenders who manage, monitor and remediate threats.

The CrowdStrike Falcon platform has also become the platform of choice for other leading MDR players – a testament to CrowdStrike’s commitment to innovation and to solving the needs of businesses looking to modernise their security strategies through its partner-first approach. As the Falcon platform is open and extensible, partners can easily expand solutions to meet their customers' needs. This, in turn, provides opportunity for specialisation and differentiation within CrowdStrike’s partner ecosystem, which is fundamental in solving complex cyber security challenges to defeat adversaries and decisively stop breaches.
