Recognized as the most mature and complete platform; only vendor with a perfect score for Emerging Features, tied for highest marks in Key Features and Business Criteria

AUSTIN, Texas: CrowdStrike (NASDAQ: CRWD) today announced it has been named the Leader and Outperformer in the 2025 GigaOm Radar Report for Identity Threat Detection and Response (ITDR). The report recognized CrowdStrike as the most Mature and complete Platform Play, the only vendor to earn perfect 5/5 scores across all Emerging Feature categories – including AI-Enhanced SecOPS/Copilot and Non-Human Identity Security – and tied for the highest average score across Key Features and Business Criteria. These results validate CrowdStrike’s innovation and competitive advantage as the only unified platform that secures both human and non-human identities throughout the entire attack lifecycle – from initial compromise to privilege escalation and lateral movement – across hybrid environments.

Adversaries increasingly exploit trusted human identities to infiltrate organizations undetected, with 79% of initial access attacks now malware-free. At the same time, the rise of agentic AI is fueling an explosion of machine identities. CrowdStrike’s leadership in identity security is built on a deep understanding of adversary tradecraft and the evolving identity threat landscape. This intelligence is built into the AI-native CrowdStrike Falcon® platform, delivering comprehensive protection for both human and non-human identities across hybrid environments.

CrowdStrike Falcon® Identity Protection is powered by real-time signals from endpoints and devices, threat intelligence from front-line experts, and trillions of daily events processed across the Falcon platform. This data advantage creates a continuous feedback loop that enables AI-driven protection to prevent, detect and respond to identity-based attacks – dynamically blocking initial access, stopping privilege escalation with Falcon® Privileged Access, and detecting lateral movement before impact.

As GigaOm notes, “by enabling data sharing across all CrowdStrike modules, the platform provides a comprehensive view of identity threats and correlates insights from multiple telemetry sources, including endpoints and cloud environments.”

Key report findings include:

• Proactive Protection, Automated Response: CrowdStrike earned perfect 5/5 scores in Proactive Protection and Automated Incident Response. The report highlighted that CrowdStrike “supports all stages from incident alert to resolution, including detection, alert generation, prioritization, and drill down analysis,” driven by the powerful combination of Falcon Identity Protection and Falcon® Next-Gen SIEM. The report noted that Falcon Fusion SOAR “enables teams to automate end-to-end response workflows” with over 1,500 automated actions, such as disabling compromised accounts and enforcing MFA.
• Agentic AI Innovation: With perfect 5/5 scores in AI-Enhanced SecOPS/Copilot and Incident Response Analysis, the report underscored the efficacy of Charlotte AI and how CrowdStrike brings the power of agentic AI to Falcon Identity Protection. Charlotte AI Agentic Detection Triage autonomously triages cross-domain attack detections with over 98% accuracy1 to rapidly prioritize the most critical threats. With a perfect 5/5 score in Non-Human Identity Security, CrowdStrike is recognized not only for leveraging agentic AI to accelerate response – but also for securing against it. The report notes how CrowdStrike’s “advances in the use of its AI platform will continue to drive innovation.”
• Cross-Domain Protection: As a native part of the Falcon Platform, Falcon Identity Protection stops sophisticated cross-domain and insider threats spanning identity, endpoint and cloud. This level of native, real-time correlation is only possible through a unified platform that shares telemetry and intelligence across modules to expose attack paths and stop breaches before impact.
• Adversary Approach: The report praised CrowdStrike’s adversary-driven approach to identity security, noting that by “utilizing threat intelligence, it enriches alerts with adversary profiles and real-time intelligence…ensuring visibility into attack paths to stop breaches by helping organizations respond to threats before escalation.”

“Identity is the adversary’s weapon of choice. From stolen credentials to social engineering and sophisticated insider abuse, most breaches start with identity – and attackers use it to hide in plain sight as they move undetected to achieve their objectives,” said Elia Zaitsev, chief technology officer, CrowdStrike. “Our results in the GigaOm Radar Report for ITDR validate our leadership in securing every stage of the attack lifecycle across modern hybrid environments. From initial access to privilege escalation and lateral movement, CrowdStrike stops identity-based attacks with real-time, AI-powered protection informed by real-world adversary tradecraft.”
