Posting is:08-12-2026 CrowdStrike was founded in 2011 to fix a fundamental
problem: The sophisticated attacks that were forcing the world’s leading
businesses into the headlines could not be solved with existing malware-based
defenses. Founder George Kurtz realized that a brand new approach was needed —
one that combines the most advanced endpoint protection with expert intelligence
to pinpoint the adversaries perpetrating the attacks, not just the malware.
There’s much more to the story of how Falcon has redefined endpoint protection
but there’s only one thing to remember about CrowdStrike: We stop breaches.
