CrowdStrike (CRWD) has been named a “Top Pick” in the global IT security center.
CrowdStrike has expanded its market share with an integrated endpoint security solution named Falcon. Falcon, a first-of-its-kind single platform, single console (interface) security solution, is praised for its ability to solve the complexities and operational difficulties at a time when businesses are looking to enhance their security using more security solutions.
“The reason CRWD was able to proliferate in a short time is because it quickly seized a new market when the IT environment was changing to the cloud,” said Kim Soo Jin, a researcher at Mirae Asset Securities. “While established players like McAfee and Symantec failed to transition from a legacy to the cloud, the company quickly expanded its market share with AI technology at the forefront,” she analyzed.
Despite Microsoft aggressively entering the endpoint security market in 2022, analysis shows that CrowdStrike maintains a high growth rate thanks to its existing references and technical capabilities.
Researcher Kim Soo Jin recommended CrowdStrike as the top pick in the global IT security sector, citing its leading technology and sales capabilities, strong performance growth, business margin turnaround, and stable cash flow, all led by Falcon.
