CrowdStrike wins Best Threat Intelligence Technology for Falcon, its threat intelligence and adversary operations platform that combines AI-driven analysis, expert threat hunting and global adversary tracking to help organisations identify, prioritise and disrupt increasingly sophisticated cyber threats.

The offering brings together Threat AI, Falcon Adversary Intelligence and Falcon OverWatch to give security teams greater visibility into attacker activity while accelerating investigation, detection and response across the attack lifecycle.

At its core is a combination of AI-powered automation and human expertise. Threat AI helps security teams analyse intelligence, prioritise emerging risks and surface actionable insights, while Falcon OverWatch delivers managed threat hunting across both CrowdStrike and third-party data sources. Additional capabilities include personalised intelligence feeds, AI-powered dashboards and prioritised detections designed to help analysts focus on the threats most relevant to their organisations.

CrowdStrike also points to its role in disrupting major cybercrime operations as evidence of the platform's real-world impact. The company has supported efforts targeting threat groups and criminal infrastructure linked to campaigns including DanaBot, Anonymous Sudan and Scattered Spider.

Judges described CrowdStrike as a clear winner and one of the strongest submissions in the category, citing its combination of technical innovation, operational maturity and demonstrable customer impact.

"A market-leading, highly advanced threat intelligence offering with standout innovation, proven operational impact and clear business value."

The judging panel highlighted CrowdStrike's integration of agentic AI, expert-led threat hunting and broad telemetry coverage as a significant differentiator in an increasingly competitive threat intelligence market. Threat AI was singled out as a particularly innovative capability, helping modernise intelligence workflows while improving analyst productivity.

Judges also praised Falcon OverWatch's expansion into third-party telemetry sources, noting that the ability to hunt across a broader range of environments strengthens visibility and improves threat detection beyond traditional endpoint-focused approaches.

The submission was further strengthened by a range of operational metrics, including more than 2,500 annual intelligence reports, 11,000 hours of customer time saved, an 80% improvement in risk posture and average annual SOC savings of $3 million. Together, judges said, these results demonstrate the platform's scale, effectiveness and growing influence in modern threat intelligence and adversary operations.
