CrowdStrike has been named a 2026 Company of the Year for Identity Threat Detection and Response by Frost & Sullivan and positioned as a Leader and Fast Mover by GigaOm.
The report highlights that identity has become the front line of modern cyberattacks, with adversaries using legitimate credentials to move laterally and escalate privileges at rapid speeds.
