Kroll Enhances Global MDR Services by Migrating to CrowdStrike Falcon Complete

Kroll and CrowdStrike Forge Strategic Partnership in Cybersecurity

In a notable advancement in the realm of cybersecurity, Kroll, a leading independent provider of global financial and risk advisory solutions, has formed a strategic partnership with CrowdStrike (NASDAQ: CRWD). This collaboration is set to significantly enhance Kroll's Managed Detection and Response (MDR) services, effectively migrating their protection to the innovative CrowdStrike Falcon Complete platform. This integration marks a monumental step toward bolstering the cyber resilience of Kroll’s global clientele.

The alliance aims to amalgamate Kroll's renowned cybersecurity expertise with the robust capabilities of the CrowdStrike Falcon platform, thus offering comprehensive protection through a complete lifecycle approach. This setup ensures that clients receive expert-driven and agent-led protection around the clock. As part of this partnership, Kroll plans to transition the security management of over half a million endpoints to CrowdStrike's state-of-the-art platform, thus streamlining operations and enhancing efficacy.

One of the key advantages of the Falcon Complete initiative lies in its ability to consolidate various legacy tools and products into a single, unified platform powered by AI. This strategic move is expected to facilitate faster and more effective detection, investigation, and remediation processes for Kroll's clients. Additionally, this integration allows Kroll to maintain its premier level of advisory services and incident response capabilities, ensuring that customers are well protected against evolving cyber threats.

The CrowdStrike Falcon Complete platform is not only proficient in reducing the mean time to respond (MTTR) by 75% but also handles over 13 million detections annually. This performance underscores the platform's unmatched ability to combine expert-driven operations with AI-powered automation, ensuring that potential breaches are addressed swiftly and accurately.

Tom Etheridge, the global services lead at CrowdStrike, highlighted the significance of this partnership, stating, "Kroll's migration to Falcon Complete represents a landmark event in the MDR market, bridging cutting-edge technology with exceptional industry expertise. Together, we are setting a new benchmark for what organizations can expect from managed detection and response services."

Kroll's Global Cybersecurity and Data Resilience Director, David Burg, emphasized the firm’s commitment to safeguarding and maximizing the value for their clients through this collaboration. Burg stated, "With nearly 100 years of experience, our team of over 6,500 professionals is poised to combat sophisticated global threat actors. This alliance equips us with cutting-edge cybersecurity technology to protect sensitive data, identities, and vital assets, reaffirming our dedication to our customers' security in a complex and rapidly evolving landscape."

As Kroll and CrowdStrike continue this partnership, they are set to redefine the future of managed detection and response services.
