The partnership brings together Nord Security and the CrowdStrike Falcon platform to deliver simple, enterprise-grade protection for businesses of all sizes
CrowdStrike and Nord Security have announced a strategic partnership to redefine SMB cybersecurity. The collaboration combines CrowdStrike’s AI-native Falcon platform with Nord Security’s secure access and credential management solutions to deliver enterprise-grade protection that’s simple, accessible, and built for every business.
Challenged by limited budgets and cyber security expertise, CrowdStrike’s State of SMB Cybersecurity Survey shows just 36% of small and midsize businesses are investing in new tools, and only 11% have adopted AI-powered defenses. At the same time, adversaries are increasingly targeting smaller organizations with enterprise-level attacks. This partnership directly addresses that gap, seamlessly giving SMBs access to the AI-powered protection, intelligence, and speed trusted by the world’s largest enterprises.
The partnership introduces two key innovations:
- Simplified e-commerce access: Nord Security will offer Falcon Go, CrowdStrike’s AI-powered solution purpose-built for SMBs, and Falcon Enterprise directly through NordLayer, a toggle-ready network security platform for business, pairing the power of the Falcon platform with NordLayer’s secure access to make enterprise-grade protection easy to buy and deploy.
- Expanded MSP offerings through Pax8: CrowdStrike, Nord Security, and Pax8 will launch an add-on for Falcon Next-Gen SIEM that combines speed, detection and accuracy of the Falcon platform with Nord Security’s secure access and network solutions, including 90 days of free access for qualifying customers.
“This partnership transforms how SMBs secure their business,” said Daniel Bernard, Chief Business Officer at CrowdStrike. “Together with Nord Security, we’re redefining cybersecurity for SMBs – combining the power of the Falcon platform with Nord Security’s SMB go-to-market prowess and secure access technology to deliver enterprise-grade protection that’s fast to deploy, simple to manage, and built to stop breaches.”
“Every growing business faces the same challenge: their attack surface is expanding faster than their ability to secure it,” said Mantas Ulozas, Chief Business Development Officer at B2B Commercial at Nord Security. “By combining our secure access and credential management solutions with CrowdStrike’s Falcon platform, we’re removing barriers of cost and complexity that have long limited SMBs’ access to enterprise-grade protection – giving them the visibility and confidence to defend against modern threats.”
