CrowdStrike Delivers Agentic MDR to Stop Breaches at Machine Speed

Key Terms

managed detection and response technical

Managed detection and response (MDR) is a service where outside specialists continuously monitor a company’s digital systems, look for signs of cyberattacks, and take or recommend immediate action to contain and fix problems. Think of it as hiring a dedicated 24/7 security team and emergency response crew for a business’s IT systems; for investors, MDR matters because it reduces the risk of costly breaches, downtime, regulatory fines, and damage to reputation that can hurt revenue and share value.

siem technical

SIEM (Security Information and Event Management) is a software system that gathers and analyzes security-related data from across a company's computers and networks to spot suspicious activity, like a central security dashboard that flags and explains alarms from many sensors. For investors it matters because a strong SIEM helps prevent costly breaches, supports regulatory compliance, and can reduce financial and reputational risk; for vendors it can be a key revenue and growth area.

form 4 regulatory

Form 4 is a official document that company insiders, such as executives or major shareholders, file with regulators whenever they buy or sell company shares. It provides transparency about how those with inside knowledge are trading, helping investors see if insiders are confident in the company's prospects or may be selling for personal reasons. This information can influence investor decisions by revealing insiders' perspectives on the company's value.

form 144 regulatory

Form 144 is a document that investors must file with the government when they plan to sell a large number of shares of a company's stock. It helps ensure transparency so everyone knows how many shares are being sold and when, which can impact the stock's price.

restricted stock units financial

Restricted stock units are a type of company reward where employees are promised shares of stock, but they only fully own these shares after meeting certain conditions, like staying with the company for a set time. They matter because they can become valuable assets and are often used to motivate employees to help the company succeed.

performance stock units financial

Performance stock units are a type of company award that grants employees shares of stock only if certain performance goals are met. They motivate employees to work toward specific company achievements, aligning their interests with those of shareholders. For investors, they can influence a company's future stock supply and reflect management’s confidence in reaching key targets.

fedramp high authorization regulatory

A FedRAMP High authorization is a government-approved certification that a cloud service meets the strictest U.S. federal security standards for storing and processing highly sensitive data. Think of it as a top-tier safety rating for cloud products that lets vendors enter government and regulated markets; for investors, it signals higher barriers to entry for competitors, potential access to lucrative contracts, and lower regulatory and cybersecurity risk for customers.

govcloud technical

GovCloud is a specialized cloud computing environment designed to meet strict security, privacy and regulatory requirements for government agencies and contractors. Think of it as a locked, monitored storage and computing room that only approved users and systems can enter; for investors it matters because companies that win or maintain GovCloud certifications can access steady, often large government contracts and face higher barriers to entry for competitors.

Falcon Complete’s elite security analysts build and orchestrate intelligent agents to stop AI-accelerated threats, while new services help organizations operationalize the agentic SOC

AUSTIN, Texas & SAN FRANCISCO--(BUSINESS WIRE)-- RSA 2026--CrowdStrike (NASDAQ: CRWD) today unveiled Agentic MDR, delivering the next evolution of managed detection and response. Falcon Complete's elite analysts build and deploy intelligent agents to automate high-friction security workflows and stop breaches at machine speed, creating a closed-loop system that gets smarter with every engagement.

“CrowdStrike pioneered managed detection and response and Agentic MDR carries that leadership into the AI era,” said Austin Murphy, VP & GM of Falcon Complete. “As AI-powered adversaries move faster than defenders can respond, security operations must accelerate beyond manual workflows to machine-speed defense. Agentic MDR combines elite human expertise with agents so our defenders can investigate and respond at the speed modern attacks demand.”

AI-Accelerated Adversaries Exploit the Cybersecurity Skills Gap

AI-enabled adversaries increased operations by 89% year-over-year while the average eCrime breakout time fell to just 29 minutes, forcing defenders to operate at greater speed and scale than ever before. Security teams process thousands of detections every day, often relying on manual triage and response workflows to separate signal from noise and stop breaches with confidence. With a widening skills gap and rising cost pressure, improving speed and precision without adding headcount is a strategic imperative.

Agentic MDR Outpaces the Adversary

Agentic MDR redefines managed defense for the AI era, using agents to augment expert analysts to streamline high-friction workflows and scale elite protection across enterprise environments.

AI reasoning models are further accelerating agentic investigations. Building on its expanded collaboration with NVIDIA, CrowdStrike is evaluating reasoning capabilities powered by NVIDIA Nemotron 3 Nano and Nemotron Super models within Agentic MDR. NVIDIA Nemotron models deliver maximum compute efficiency and accuracy, enabling Falcon Complete to process high volumes of security data and make precise, real-time decisions at scale. Internal testing demonstrates up to 5x faster investigations¹ and more than 3x higher triage accuracy in high-confidence benign classification performance² when powered by NVIDIA Nemotron Nano and Nemotron Super models.

Services to Operationalize the Agentic SOC

CrowdStrike also launched new SOC Transformation Services to help internal teams modernize security operations. Led by CrowdStrike’s expert SOC operators, these services transform SIEM, data pipelines, agentic workflows, and governance, helping organizations migrate to Falcon® Next-Gen SIEM and establishing the data and operational requirements for the agentic SOC.

Together, Falcon Complete and CrowdStrike Services give organizations a clear path to agentic SOC transformation, with CrowdStrike operating it through Falcon Complete or helping organizations build their own capabilities internally.
