Optiv and CrowdStrike achieve $2 billion in joint sales

Optiv Security has reached $2 billion in joint sales with CrowdStrike, becoming the first partner to achieve this milestone. This significant achievement was accomplished in less than half the time it took to reach the $1 billion mark, indicating a rapid acceleration in their partnership, based on information published by CRN.

The partnership between Optiv and CrowdStrike has seen a rapid ascent, with the latest $2 billion sales milestone being reached in significantly less time than the previous $1 billion achievement in December 2023. CrowdStrike attributes this success to Optiv's focused execution and commitment to the partnership, highlighting Optiv's position as No. 29 on the Solution Provider 500 list. Optiv's strategy of concentrating on cybersecurity has facilitated deep customer access and national coverage.

A key factor in their joint success has been the early adoption and promotion of CrowdStrike's Falcon Flex subscription model, which aims to simplify security tool complexity and offer greater agility and cost savings for customers. This collaboration is crucial as businesses face an increasingly complex and AI-driven threat landscape, requiring specialized technology, customer interface, and expertise to navigate evolving security challenges.
