“The program is a major shift from traditional IR models, which are often fragmented, reactive, and slower to engage within a customer’s cloud environment,” said Daniel Bernard, chief business officer at CrowdStrike. “With this program, we’re giving AWS customers the ability to spin up world-class CrowdStrike protection in just a few clicks – no new procurement motion, no added complexity.”
Addressing Visibility and Response Gaps in the Cloud
This integration is built for speed, simplicity, and scalability. CrowdStrike’s AI-powered platform addresses common gaps in cloud security, especially around real-time visibility and runtime protection. While many solutions stop at posture management, Falcon for AWS Security Incident Response extends protection across workloads, identities, and endpoints. It enables automated threat detection and response at the moment of compromise, without forcing teams to navigate contracts or complex deployments during a live incident.“Customers no longer have to waste time navigating contracts, integrations, or deployment barriers when facing an active cloud-based threat,” Bernard added. “Instead, they receive immediate access to AI-powered detection and response, deeply integrated within their AWS environment.”
Enabling MSSPs to Deliver at Cloud Speed
The offering also supports managed security service providers (MSSPs) looking to scale cloud response operations. With the Falcon platform available directly through AWS Marketplace, MSSPs can streamline onboarding, reduce tooling complexity, and deliver consistent protection across hybrid environments.“This program gives MSSPs an incredibly efficient way to deploy the Falcon platform for AWS Security IR customers through AWS Marketplace, without procurement delays and friction,” Bernard explained. “That’s a massive efficiency and visibility gain – both for providers and for the customers they protect.”
