CrowdStrike partners Wipro to transform enterprise security operations

Wipro, a major technology services and consulting company, is to deliver security operations powered by CrowdStrike Falcon Next-Gen SIEM.

This collaboration increases business agility and secures the modern enterprise by combining the knowledge of expert cybersecurity professionals and strategic industry partners. Wipro’s CyberShield platform will be augmented with CrowdStrike Falcon Next-Gen SIEM to modernise security operations, reduce complexity and stop breaches with AI-powered threat detection and response. With CrowdStrike first-party data natively inside the Falcon platform, Wipro is able to deliver faster time to value, lower total cost of ownership (TCO) and improved cybersecurity outcomes.

"Innovative partners like Wipro selecting Falcon Next-Gen SIEM to power their managed services practices underscores CrowdStrike’s competitive advantages over both legacy and modern alternatives," said Daniel Bernard, Chief Business Officer, CrowdStrike. 

"Together we’re redefining security operations, combining AI-driven security analytics with world-class expertise to scale machine-speed threat detection and response across the enterprise."

Security information and event management (SIEM) remains the cornerstone of security operations, yet outdated solutions, burdened by slow data ingestion, limited retention, complex workflows, delayed searches and high costs, hinder modernisation, CrowdStrike said. 

"Today’s evolving threat landscape requires security solutions that are not just fast and scalable but purpose-built for modern cyber defenses," said Tony Buffomante, Senior VP & Global Head – Cybersecurity & Risk Services, Wipro. 

"Migrating our MSSP customer base to CrowdStrike’s next-gen SIEM allows us to accelerate the shift from outdated, complex SIEMs to a modern, AI-powered SOC. Our deep expertise in seamless migrations ensures that customers can quickly unlock the full potential of enhanced automation, real-time threat detection and a streamlined SOC as they improve security outcomes and reduce operational burdens."

MSSP stands for managed security service provider, while SOC refers to security operations centre.

Wipro’s MSSP platform powered by Falcon Next-Gen SIEM enables enterprises to cost-effectively enhance cyber resilience and secure operations across clouds, networks, perimeters, endpoints, identities, data and apps through: 

- Real-time threat detection and response – Identify threats before they impact the organisation and reduce response time through generative AI-powered automated SOC services and security processes. 

- Lower TCO and greater efficiency – Eliminates costly data ingestion and retention while reducing manual workloads. 

- Seamless scalability with a cloud-native architecture – Falcon Next-Gen SIEM’s index-free design ensures high-speed performance at petabyte scale, without the cost and complexity of traditional SIEMs. 

- Continuous 24x7 security operations – Wipro’s global Cyber Defense Centers provide always-on monitoring, advanced threat intelligence and tailored incident response. 

- Enhanced analyst productivity and operational efficiency – AI and automation streamline security workflows, reduce alert fatigue and enable faster, more accurate investigations.

CrowdStrike also announced the general availability of Falcon Privileged Access, a new module within Falcon Identity Protection. Agentic AI is used to autonomously triage cross-domain attacks with over 98% accuracy.

With 79% of initial access attacks now malware-free, adversaries increasingly exploit trusted identities to evade defenses. Falcon Privileged Access counters these threats in real-time, analysing signals like compromised credentials and risky device behaviour to dynamically grant, block, or revoke access, based on user behaviour and privilege status.

The company also extended automation capabilities for Charlotte AI Agentic Detection Triage and Falcon Next-Gen SIEM to accelerate responses to identity-based attacks. These innovations empower organisations to move beyond fragmented legacy tools and unify end-to-end identity security with AI-powered platform protection across on-premises Active Directory, cloud-based identity providers and software-as-a-service (SaaS) applications.
