Earns high overall scores across Key and Emerging Features categories, with perfect marks in Threat Detection, Cloud Security Integration, Unified Telemetry and Scalability criteria
AUSTIN, Texas, April 22, 2025--(BUSINESS WIRE)--CrowdStrike (NASDAQ: CRWD) today announced it has been named a Leader and Fast Mover in the 2025 GigaOm Radar Report for XDR. The report recognizes the innovation and leadership of the AI-native CrowdStrike Falcon® cybersecurity platform, awarding it the highest average score of any vendor evaluated in the Emerging Features categories, and tied for the highest average score in Key Features. CrowdStrike earned perfect scores in several critical areas, including Threat Detection, Cloud Security Integration, Unified Telemetry and Scalability.
As the number of enterprise data sources grows and the speed of attacks accelerates, security teams relying on disjointed solutions struggle to keep up. The report praises CrowdStrike’s "platform-first approach to security, emphasizing unified visibility and control across the enterprise attack surface." Purpose built with a single-agent, single platform architecture, the Falcon platform unifies native and third-party data, AI-powered detection and automated workflows to deliver the speed, scale and precision defenders needs against today’s threats. This architectural platform advantage eliminates complexity across domains – endpoint, cloud, identity, data and Next-Gen SIEM – giving security teams unified controls, deeper visibility and faster response to stop modern attacks.
The report highlighted several key differentiators that reinforce CrowdStrike’s leadership in AI-driven platform security:
Cross-Domain Protection: CrowdStrike earned perfect 5/5 scores for Threat Detection and Unified Telemetry. The report highlights how the Falcon platform leverages first-party data and cross-domain analytics to link events across endpoints, identities, and cloud workloads and seamlessly integrates third-party telemetry via Falcon Next-Gen SIEM. This eliminates gaps between systems and gives security teams the speed and context to stop cross-domain threats.
AI-Native SOC: CrowdStrike is the AI-Native SOC for security teams, delivering automated security workflows, seamless response orchestration and end-to-end security integration. The report notes that "AI models are continuously trained" to optimize detection, the Falcon platform "prioritizes high-risk alerts and groups them into incidents," and "analysts use drill-down analysis and Charlotte AI for investigation" to eliminate manual effort and accelerate response.
Fully Unified Cloud Security: CrowdStrike earned a perfect 5/5 score in Cloud Security Integration. Unlike vendors that require cloud add-ons or lack cloud security capabilities natively built into the core solution, the report highlights that CrowdStrike encompasses endpoint protection, detection and response, cloud security, identity protection, and threat intelligence within a single agent and management console.
Cloud-Native Architecture: With a perfect 5/5 score for Scalability, CrowdStrike’s revolutionary single-agent, cloud-native architecture delivers the ideal balance of security and performance, driving AI-native innovation across the enterprise.
