Enterprise solutions companies usually broker partnerships to improve existing products or ease end-user pain points.

In keeping with the trend, endpoint security company CrowdStrike Inc. has announced a collaboration to leverage Cribl Inc.’s data streaming expertise moving forward.

“What’s going on in the market is a lot of our customers are on this [extended detection and response] journey,” said Daniel Bernard (pictured, right), chief business officer of CrowdStrike. “They want to bring data into the platform and use CrowdStrike for everything — from security to DevOps use cases. Bringing data in with Cribl just is so much easier and faster.”

Bernard and Abby Strong (left), senior vice president of customer experience and marketing at Cribl, spoke with theCUBE industry analyst John Furrier at the RSA Conference, during an exclusive broadcast on theCUBE, SiliconANGLE Media’s livestreaming studio. They discussed the cruciality of data streaming operations for enterprise companies. (* Disclosure below.)

Responding to the data explosion

Scalability, extensibility and reliability are table stakes for enterprise data operations. Cribl extends those features to CrowdStrike users as they port data into the system via CrowdStream, according to Strong.

“We’ve been working together a long time helping CrowdStrike EDR customers get their data into legacy security information and event mManagement tools,” she explained. “With CrowdStream, we now have a much easier way to get data into the CrowdStrike Falcon platform.”

The partnership was just a matter of routing Cribl directly into the data destination, given its existing popularity within the CrowdStrike ecosystem, Bernard added.

“It was really easy for us to listen to our customers and see this demand for the Cribl technology and the differentiation in this observability pipeline,” he said. “For us, it was about routing that right here into the data destination, which is our LogScale product in the Falcon XDR platform.”

The tool is accessible via the CrowdStream platform. Following an intuitive drag-and-drop process, users can expediently kickstart their data migration into the Falcon LogScale platform, according to Strong.

“Customers have a variety of choices since we have a very easy and intuitive interface with a thousand integrations for all the different data source types that they might have,” she concluded.
