This jointly packaged offering is purpose-built to meet the needs of smaller security teams within small and midsize businesses (SMBs) and midmarket organizations by enabling rapid deployment and a transparent pricing model. It also empowers managed security service providers (MSSPs), aggregators and distributors to deliver comprehensive detection and response without custom scoping.

SMB and midmarket organizations are increasingly targeted by modern cyberattacks โ€“ and remain especially vulnerable.ย According to McKinsey & Company, these businesses are “often targeted by cybercriminals seeking to exploit gaps in unsophisticated security tooling.” As a result, demand is growing for security solutions that are both effective and easy to adopt without requiring large in-house teams or complex procurement processes. This joint offering addresses that need with proven technology, streamlined packaging and flexible partner-led delivery.

“Small and midsize businesses face the same advanced threats as much larger companies but without the security headcount, budget, and often tools needed to stay protected,” saidย Daniel Bernard, chief business officer, CrowdStrike. “Together with Vectra AI, we’re leveling the playing field by bringing the speed, simplicity and efficacy of the AI-powered Falcon platform to teams that need to do more with less. By working with our trusted partner ecosystem, we’re delivering powerful outcomes to customers with a joint offering that’s easy to adopt, fast to deploy and built to stop breaches.”

This joint cybersecurity offering delivers end-to-end detection and response across the endpoint, network and identity layers. Vectra AI’s NDR provides deep network visibility and AI-driven threat detection, while CrowdStrike offers industry-leading endpoint protection โ€“ together enabling real-time, correlated detection across hybrid environments.

The tiered offering is based on employee count and can be purchased in 12 or 36-month terms that include premium support and 14-day data retention. This provides customers with critical visibility into recent threat activity โ€“ empowering faster investigations, deeper context and stronger response. By unifying sizing metrics across both vendors into a single, user-based model, the joint offering eliminates the complexity of estimating IPs or endpoints, making it easier for customers to understand, adopt and deploy.

“Together with CrowdStrike, we’re making best-in-class cybersecurity more accessible than ever,” saidย Willem Hendrickx, chief revenue officer, Vectra AI. “This is protection that’s easy to buy, fast to deploy and built for today’s threat landscape.”
