CrowdStrike and Nord Security Announce Strategic Partnership To Redefine SMB Cybersecurity

CrowdStrike and Nord Security announced a strategic partnership to redefine SMB cybersecurity. The collaboration combines CrowdStrike’s AI-native Falcon platform with Nord Security’s secure access and credential management solutions to deliver enterprise-grade protection that’s simple, accessible, and built for every business. 

Challenged by limited budgets and cybersecurity expertise, CrowdStrike’s State of SMB Cybersecurity Survey shows just 36% of small and midsize businesses are investing in new tools, and only 11% have adopted AI-powered defenses. At the same time, adversaries are increasingly targeting smaller organizations with enterprise-level attacks. This partnership directly addresses that gap, seamlessly giving SMBs access to the AI-powered protection, intelligence, and speed trusted by the world’s largest enterprises.

The partnership introduces two key innovations:

“This partnership transforms how SMBs secure their business,” said Daniel Bernard, Chief Business Officer at CrowdStrike. “Together with Nord Security, we’re redefining cybersecurity for SMBs – combining the power of the Falcon platform with Nord’s SMB go-to-market prowess and secure access technology to deliver enterprise-grade protection that’s fast to deploy, simple to manage, and built to stop breaches.”

“Every growing business faces the same challenge: their attack surface is expanding faster than their ability to secure it,” said Mantas Ulozas, Chief Business Development Officer at B2B Commercial at Nord Security. “By combining our secure access and credential management solutions with CrowdStrike’s Falcon platform, we’re removing barriers of cost and complexity that have long limited SMBs’ access to enterprise-grade protection – giving them the visibility and confidence to defend against modern threats.”
