Joint integrations combine VAST\u2019s native security controls with CrowdStrike\u2019s enterprise detection and response to help secure the AI lifecycle and enhance protection at the data layer<\/strong><\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n

At VAST Forward 2026<\/a>, VAST Data<\/a>, the AI Operating System company, and CrowdStrike<\/a> (NASDAQ: CRWD) announced a strategic partnership that combines VAST\u2019s native data-layer governance and platform-level controls with CrowdStrike\u2019s enterprise-grade threat detection and automated response. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

By integrating these capabilities within the VAST AI Operating System<\/a> and connecting telemetry with the CrowdStrike Falcon\u00ae cybersecurity platform, the companies enable coordinated protection for enterprise environments across the AI lifecycle, from data ingestion and model training to runtime operation and inference. Together, VAST and CrowdStrike provide layered security for the data and operational state that modern AI systems depend on.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

As enterprises move from AI experimentation to production and autonomous systems, the nature of risk is evolving. AI systems rely on continuous data ingestion, dynamic workflows, and distributed runtime environments. This partnership helps secure the AI lifecycle \u2013 from development through production \u2013<\/p>\n\n\n\n

by integrating continuous detection, workflow scanning, and response into the environments where AI systems are built, trained, and operated.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cVAST was built to be the operating system for AI, with security and governance designed into the platform,\u201d said Renen Hallak, Founder & CEO of VAST Data<\/strong>. \u201cThis partnership with CrowdStrike extends continuous threat detection and coordinated response into AI workflows and runtime environments \u2013 helping customers operate enterprise AI with greater confidence as they scale.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Customer benefits include:<\/h2>\n\n\n\n
    \n
  • Secure, production-ready AI at the data layer: <\/strong>CrowdStrike complements VAST\u2019s native platform controls with continuous monitoring and threat detection across AI data pipelines and containerized runtime environments \u2013 helping teams securely scale AI operations.<\/li>\n\n\n\n
  • Protection embedded into AI workflows:<\/strong> By integrating detection and response wherever AI operates, security becomes a native component of AI workloads \u2013 helping prevent malware, compromised or untrusted data, and unauthorized access from impacting AI systems and reducing risks such as model poisoning and data leakage.<\/li>\n\n\n\n
  • Coordinated detection and response across platforms: <\/strong>By sharing telemetry between enterprise security operations at the data layer, organizations gain earlier detection and precise, coordinated response \u2013 containing threats at the source while minimizing operational disruption.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n

    This new partnership between VAST and CrowdStrike extends to covering the companies\u2019 collaboration with NVIDIA, further protecting AI pipelines end-to-end. Together, these three companies are collaborating to secure AI across the stack, protecting AI infrastructure, AI workloads, and the underlying data foundation. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

    By combining NVIDIA AI infrastructure, CrowdStrike\u2019s AI-driven threat detection and runtime protection, and VAST\u2019s real-time data-layer enforcement, this partnership brings a comprehensive approach to protecting AI pipelines from model training to inference.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

    \u201cAI is becoming the operating system of the modern enterprise,\u201d said George Kurtz, CEO and founder of CrowdStrike<\/strong>. \u201cVAST operates at the data layer where AI comes to life, and CrowdStrike secures where enterprise value is created. Together, we\u2019re securing AI at its foundation.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

    Together, VAST Data, CrowdStrike and NVIDIA are advancing how enterprise AI is protected at scale \u2013 enhancing security at the data layer and enabling organizations to deploy production AI with confidence.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
