Corporate venture arm for CrowdStrike continues
to invest in an ecosystem of best-in-class security innovators
Fal.Con 2022– CrowdStrike (Nasdaq: CRWD), a leader in
cloud-delivered protection of endpoints, cloud workloads, identity
and data, today announced that its strategic investment vehicle,
Falcon Fund, has invested in Salt Security, the leader in
Application Programming Interface (API) security. In addition to
the investment, Salt Security and CrowdStrike are partnering to
bring together leading technology to apply API discovery and
runtime protection on applications, and enable security testing to
harden APIs before release.
"With the proliferation and use of SaaS applications, APIs are
becoming a key target for adversaries," said Michael Sentonas,
chief technology officer at CrowdStrike. "Salt Security has emerged
as the clear leader in solving this major blindspot for
organizations, which is why we have chosen to invest in this
innovative team and technology."
CrowdStrike is committed to building an ecosystem of
next-generation security leaders and enabling seamless integrations
with the solutions that customers need to protect themselves in a
rapidly evolving threat landscape. CrowdStrike’s Falcon Fund has
been active with investments in established and emerging leaders
across adjacent markets including Dig Security (data detection and
response), JumpCloud (open directory) and Talon Security (secure
enterprise browser).
“APIs connect the critical data and services that drive today’s
digital innovation,” said Roey Eliyahu, CEO and co-founder at Salt
Security. “API usage is rapidly growing, and API attack traffic is
growing year-over-year. Existing defenses are not effective in
detecting and stopping API attacks, leaving organizations
vulnerable to today’s low-and-slow API attacks. Just as CrowdStrike
revolutionized endpoint protection, Salt is pioneering a
context-based approach to finding and stopping bad actors abusing
APIs. We are honored to welcome CrowdStrike as a strategic partner
and help provide their customers with best-in-class API
security.”
Salt Security will be showcasing its platform during Fal.Con
2022 at the ARIA Resort & Casino in Las Vegas on September
19-21.
