Strategic collaboration lets CrowdStrike run even more powerful AIDR models at machine speed; Cerebras standardizes on the Falcon platform to secure its business
AUSTIN, Texas and SUNNYVALE, Calif., July 22, 2026 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- CrowdStrike (NASDAQ: CRWD) and Cerebras Systems (NASDAQ: CBRS) today announced a strategic partnership between the industry’s leading AI-native security platform and the world's fastest AI inference. CrowdStrike will leverage Cerebras’s industry-leading inference speed to help power Falcon AI Detection and Response (AIDR), while Cerebras standardizes on the CrowdStrike Falcon® platform to secure its business. Together, the companies are pairing the inference speed with AI-native security for enterprises building and deploying AI at scale.
Cybersecurity is fundamentally changed by AI, as attacks are faster, more targeted, and harder to detect. Defending against AI-accelerated threats requires security that reasons and acts at machine speed. Adversaries move across domains in seconds, and the window to detect and respond has collapsed. Security teams must respond with larger, smarter models that run fast enough for real-time protection, stopping more threats sooner, including those that legacy systems would have missed.
“Inference is where AI creates value, and cybersecurity is one of the clearest examples of where speed matters most,” said Naor Penso, CISO, Cerebras. “Security cannot wait in the queue for slow AI while an attack unfolds. Every millisecond matters. It determines whether AI prevents an attack or explains what happened afterward. CrowdStrike built the industry’s leading cybersecurity platform, and Cerebras delivers the world’s fastest inference. Together, we enable real-time AI security to stay ahead of today’s threats.”
The partnership extends CrowdStrike's leadership in AIDR, the category it pioneered to secure AI across every surface it operates on, from data and models to agents and identities. It also marks a new frontier for Cerebras, bringing the inference speed trusted by the world's most demanding AI workloads to one of AI’s most consequential applications: securing the enterprise in real-time. Cerebras's own adoption of Falcon reflects the shift: the companies building AI infrastructure are turning to CrowdStrike to protect their AI.
“If you want to build AI, you need the fastest compute. If you want to secure AI, you need CrowdStrike. By running Falcon AIDR models on Cerebras, we put the world’s best security AI on the world’s fastest inference. Fast, secure AI drives rapid adoption,” said Daniel Bernard, chief business officer at CrowdStrike. “Cerebras is one of the most important names in AI compute, and they’ve standardized on the Falcon platform to secure their own innovation. The companies building the future of AI are choosing CrowdStrike to protect it.”
As AI reshapes the enterprise, the world's innovators build on the fastest AI infrastructure, powered by Cerebras and secured by CrowdStrike.
