Dell Technologies combines the AI-native CrowdStrike Falcon platform with Dell MDR services to enhance speed, expertise, and flexibility, enabling effective threat detection and response in multi-cloud and multi-vendor environments.

Dell announced on the 7th that it is strengthening its Managed Detection and Response (MDR) services in cooperation with CrowdStrike and integrating CrowdStrike's AI-native 'Falcon XDR' platform into Dell's MDR services.

According to the 2024 CrowdStrike Global Threat Report, cyber attacks are faster, more sophisticated, and employing higher stealth techniques than ever before.

Furthermore, as the cybersecurity skills gap widens, organizations are in a situation where they must do more with fewer resources.

To protect against the latest threats, a holistic and intuitive managed security solution is required to eliminate complexity and multiply the capabilities of existing security and IT teams.

By combining the capabilities of Dell's global security operations expert team with the Falcon platform, which detects threats proactively, enterprises and organizations can effectively respond to cyber threats across multi-cloud and IT environments.

Daniel Bernard, Chief Business Officer at CrowdStrike, stated, “By partnering to enhance Dell MDR services, the Falcon Platform, which holds a record-breaking track record in the cybersecurity industry, provides industry-leading protection to more customers.” “We are now able to provide these capabilities,” he said. “We plan to collaborate extensively with Dell to enable customers of all sizes, from enterprise environments to small and medium-sized organizations, to enjoy benefits such as cyber intrusion prevention, point product integration, and cost reduction.”

"It is important to collaborate with industry leaders to provide diverse options and flexibility to customers in fragmented and complex security environments," explained Kim Kyung-jin, General Manager of Dell Technologies Korea. "Customers need scalable, results-based security solutions to prepare for increasingly sophisticated threats. Through the combination of MDR and the CrowdStrike platform, Dell reduces exposure to potential threats, detects and responds to incidents, and supports the recovery of applications and systems."

The Dell MDR service combined with the CrowdStrike Falcon XDR platform is currently available for direct purchase or through channel partners across Dell's global markets.
