Posted by Austin, USA – Barcelona, Spain: CrowdStrike and Dell Technologies have announced an integrated AI security solution for the Dell AI Factory with NVIDIA. This allows customers to use the CrowdStrike Falcon platform to secure enterprise AI infrastructure, workloads, agents and applications, alongside Dell AI infrastructure and services and NVIDIA accelerated computing.
CrowdStrike and Dell Technologies team-up for integrated AI security
Through Dell Technologies’ AI Ecosystem Program, customers can purchase AI infrastructure and CrowdStrike security together, aligned with NVIDIA’s AI Factory Reference Architecture, to provide a security foundation to accelerate enterprise AI adoption.
“Every enterprise is racing to build AI, but AI without security is an opportunity for the adversary,” said George Kurtz, CEO and Founder of CrowdStrike.
“Security cannot be an afterthought in an AI-powered world. Dell and NVIDIA are powering the AI revolution, and CrowdStrike is securing it. Together, we’re making Falcon’s AI-native protection foundational to the AI Factory, giving enterprises the confidence to safely innovate at scale on validated, optimised architectures,” added Kurtz.
“Enterprises are under real pressure to move fast on AI, but speed without security creates risk, not value,” said Michael Dell, Chairman and CEO of Dell Technologies.
“The Dell AI Factory with NVIDIA gives customers a validated, optimised foundation, and with CrowdStrike’s AI-native security integrated from the start, they can move forward with confidence. That’s how you give organisations a clear, trusted path from AI ambition to AI outcomes,” added Dell.
“AI agents are transforming how every company works, and capability and security must advance together,” said Jensen Huang, Founder and CEO of NVIDIA.
“CrowdStrike is bringing its cybersecurity platform to the Dell AI Factory with NVIDIA and extending support to NVIDIA OpenShell. Together, we’re helping enterprises protect the infrastructure that runs AI and the agents that act on their behalf, giving them the confidence to put AI to work across their business,” added Huang.
Dell AI Factory with NVIDIA expands security coverage with CrowdStrike
The offering brings three Falcon capabilities to the Dell AI Factory with NVIDIA:
- Secure AI Agents and Applications: Falcon Guardian provides visibility and control over AI agent activity, with runtime protection against prompt injection, unexpected and malicious behaviour, and sensitive data exposure. The solution builds on the NVIDIA OpenShell Reference Architecture with NVIDIA OpenShell secure runtime integrated today and plans to add integration of NVIDIA Sentry and NVIDIA BlueField-4 DPUs, extending AI agent security from software to silicon.
- Protect AI Infrastructure and Workloads: Falcon Cloud Security delivers unified cloud security from code to runtime, identifying misconfigurations and vulnerabilities, detecting threats, and protecting workloads across containers and Kubernetes environments.
- Unify Security Operations: Falcon Next-Gen SIEM brings together first- and third-party data with AI-powered detection, investigation, and response to accelerate threat detection and stop breaches.
Dell Managed Detection and Response (MDR) Services are also expanding to optimise and exclusively manage these CrowdStrike capabilities. It provides end-to-end threat detection and response for the Dell AI Factory. With 24×7 monitoring, investigation and response across the AI stack, Dell MDR helps organisations detect threats earlier, contain attacks and recover critical AI operations.
