What their customers say
Quotes from people at CrowdStrike's customers.
“We have made significant progress in strengthening our security posture,“ concluded Melton. “The improved visibility helps us identify potential issues earlier and respond more effectively while continuing to adapt as risks evolve.”
“CrowdStrike has made it very easy to explain to the business why we said ‘no’ and how we can change that to ‘yes’ in the future.”
“It’s changed us from the ‘department of no’ to ‘no-as-a-service,’”
“Falcon Complete provides an expert, fully resourced service with access to cutting-edge AI and all the latest CrowdStrike tools available. Setting up our own SOC would be costly and inefficient in comparison.”
““It’s a real blind spot,” said Melton. “We want to hook our DMS up to this tool over here, but hang on — your DMS has probably got 10,000 customer records in it. What’s the API doing? Has it got read-write? Where’s the off switch? Who’s the application owner?””

““It’s changed us from the ‘department of no’ to ‘no-as-a-service,’” said Melton. “CrowdStrike has made it very easy to explain to the business why we said ‘no’ and how we can change that to ‘yes’ in the future.””
““One of the biggest surprises was compromised passwords,” said Melton. “There were service accounts with compromised passwords. There were 200 users with compromised passwords.””
““We hold vendors to account because they want to interface into our systems,” said Melton. “By having a better security posture, you have time to look at what you want to connect and then do it the proper way and actually monitor it.””
““Only two weeks before that, it would never have been found,””
““The weekly sessions with the team have become a cornerstone of how we run browser security,” Aughenbaugh concluded. “Every meeting leads to another incremental improvement, and it genuinely feels like we’re in a safer position week over week.””
““It lets us quickly prove whether an issue is related, which keeps user frustration down and speeds up troubleshooting.””
““The ability to disable protection on a single machine for testing has been huge for us,””
““It’s now blocking the kind of attacks that used to cost us hours of remediation, and those incidents simply don’t escalate anymore,””
