CrowdStrike was founded in 2011 by George Kurtz, Dmitri Alperovitch, and Gregg Marston. The company revolutionized the cybersecurity industry by leveraging cloud-based technologies to provide real-time protection against modern cyber threats. CrowdStrike’s flagship product, the Falcon platform, was introduced in 2013 as a next-generation antivirus solution. Since its inception, the company has been recognized for its advanced threat detection capabilities and proactive approach to cybersecurity. As a global leader in cybersecurity, CrowdStrike protects the people, processes and technologies that drive modern organizations. We work on large scale distributed systems, processing almost 3 trillion events per day and this traffic is growing daily. Our customers span all industries, and they count on CrowdStrike to keep their businesses running, their communities safe and their lives moving forward. CrowdStrike has played a significant role in uncovering high-profile cyber threats, such as those from state-sponsored groups like North Korea and China. The company’s mission is to empower customers to operate securely in the cloud era. Since 2011, our mission hasn’t changed — we’re here to stop breaches, and we’ve redefined modern security with the world’s most advanced AI-native platform. Over the years, CrowdStrike has expanded its offerings through strategic acquisitions and became a public company in 2019. Today, it continues to innovate and push the boundaries of cybersecurity technology, helping organizations worldwide protect their assets from cyber threats. CrowdStrike’s cloud-native platform allows organizations to defend against cyber attacks more effectively and efficiently than ever before, setting a new standard for cybersecurity solutions. We cultivate a culture that gives every CrowdStriker both the flexibility and autonomy to own their careers. We’re always looking to add talented CrowdStrikers to the team who have limitless passion, a relentless focus on innovation and a fanatical commitment to our customers, our community and each other.
