Stopping Breaches with Platform-Native Speed and Expertise
With over 100,000 hours of IR casework annually, CrowdStrike combines frontline expertise with platform-native visibility to detect, investigate, and contain threats before they escalate. This integrated approach enables organizations to respond with speed and confidence, even in the most complex breach scenarios.
This human expertise is amplified by AI and automation. CrowdStrike’s proprietary tools accelerate log normalization, timeline reconstruction, and threat correlation, enabling analysts to focus on the most critical aspects of each investigation.
CrowdStrike’s IR team brings deep investigative expertise earned from leading complex, high-impact breach responses. “CrowdStrike’s IR team is composed of elite professionals with deep expertise in digital forensics, malware analysis, and threat hunting,” the IDC MarketScape states. “Their ability to operate across diverse environments and threat scenarios makes them a trusted partner for organizations facing advanced persistent threats (APTs), ransomware, and insider threats.”
Elite Incident Response, Augmented by AI
By combining rapid response with long-term readiness, CrowdStrike enables organizations to transform crisis into control and emerge stronger, smarter, and more resilient with every engagement.

These engagements span compromise assessments, tabletop exercises, cloud risk reviews, and more. They are often delivered through a CrowdStrike Services Retainer already in place, which guarantees rapid response during a crisis while helping teams proactively mature their security posture over time.
A Strategic Partner in Readiness
IDC MarketScape vendor analysis model is designed to provide an overview of the competitive fitness of ICT suppliers in a given market. The research methodology utilizes a rigorous scoring methodology based on both qualitative and quantitative criteria that results in a single graphical illustration of each vendor’s position within a given market. The Capabilities score measures vendor product, go-to-market and business execution in the short-term. The Strategy score measures alignment of vendor strategies with customer requirements in a 3-5-year timeframe. Vendor market share is represented by the size of the circles. Vendor year-over-year growth rate relative to the given market is indicated by a plus, neutral or minus next to the vendor name.
CrowdStrike goes beyond incident containment with a client-centric approach that supports long-term resilience. Through proactive offerings like CrowdStrike Pulse Services, which deliver recurring, expert-led engagements tailored to each organization’s needs, CrowdStrike helps teams reduce risk and make measurable progress between incidents.
The IDC MarketScape further notes, “Artificial intelligence and automation are central to CrowdStrike’s IR strategy.” The report went on to say, “these capabilities enhance the speed, accuracy, and consistency of CrowdStrike’s response services.” The result is rapid insights, more confident decisions, and better outcomes when time matters most.
Relentless Innovation, Built to Stay Ahead
“The company’s strategic roadmap reflects a commitment to staying ahead of evolving threats and delivering even greater value to clients,” the IDC MarketScape states.

“CrowdStrike offers a highly integrated, intelligence-driven, and cloud-native approach to cyber defense,” the IDC MarketScape states. “Its IR services are deeply embedded within the broader CrowdStrike Falcon platform, enabling rapid detection, investigation, and remediation of cyber threats across diverse environments.”
We believe this recognition affirms CrowdStrike’s leadership in helping organizations move beyond response and build resilience and readiness for what comes next.
Additional Resources
CrowdStrike continues to shape the future of incident response with innovation rooted in real-world expertise. As threats evolve, we’re advancing our capabilities by investing in generative AI, streamlined automation, and broader platform interoperability to accelerate detection, containment, and recovery across hybrid environments.
By leveraging real-time telemetry from the Falcon platform, CrowdStrike accelerates investigation and containment, helping organizations recover faster and limit the overall impact of an incident. The report noted, “CrowdStrike also employs a follow-the-sun model, leveraging IR resources in the Americas, Europe, META, and APJ regions. This model allows continuous investigative progress and around-the-clock analyst availability.”
