Gartner Names CrowdStrike Leader in Inaugural Magic Quadrant™ for Cyberthreat Intelligence Technologies

Positioned Furthest Right for Completeness of Vision Among All Vendors Evaluated

CrowdStrike has announced it has been recognised as a Leader in the inaugural 2026 Gartner® Magic Quadrant™ for Cyberthreat Intelligence Technologies. The company was positioned furthest right for Completeness of Vision among all vendors assessed.

As adversaries weaponise AI to compress defenders’ response times, CrowdStrike transforms threat intelligence into agentic adversary disruption—delivering intelligence at the point of decision-making, at the speed of the threat.

“CrowdStrike pioneered adversary-driven intelligence, using frontline findings to stop real-world attacks,” said Adam Meyers, Head of Counter Adversary Operations at CrowdStrike. “By combining the industry’s deepest understanding of adversary operations with agentic systems that reason across threat data and exposure risk, hunt adversaries proactively, and take decisive action across the kill chain, CrowdStrike accelerates outcomes and stops breaches.”

CrowdStrike: From Static Threat Intel Reports to Agentic Adversary Disruption

CrowdStrike sets the industry benchmark for adversary intelligence, tracking over 280 of the world’s most sophisticated nation-state, eCrime, and hacktivist groups. In its view, Gartner’s inaugural report confirms what adversary behaviour has already demonstrated: threat intelligence is no longer a reporting discipline—it is operational. CrowdStrike’s agentic threat intelligence drives market transformation, delivering agents that reason across adversary behaviour, hunt proactively, and disrupt attacks across the kill chain at machine speed.

Threat AI, the industry’s first agentic threat intelligence system, reasons across threat data, hunts adversaries proactively, and takes decisive action across the kill chain—pursuing and disrupting adversaries at machine speed while accelerating response against AI-enabled threats. CrowdStrike’s expanding fleet of AI agents transforms finished intelligence into agentic adversary disruption, exposing adversary tradecraft and closing critical gaps at the speed of the adversary.

The CrowdStrike Falcon® platform unifies detection and response, intelligence, and exposure management. The same data used to detect threats informs agentic intelligence that explains them, identifies exposed assets and attack paths, and helps organisations operationalise Continuous Threat Exposure Management (CTEM) as part of adversary-driven defence—disrupting adversaries without handoff.

The company’s Threat Intelligence & Hunting capabilities are continuously informed by real-world decisions from its Counter Adversary Operations team of elite hunters and intelligence experts. Powered by trillions of daily security events and industry-leading expertise, the Falcon platform operationalises agentic threat intelligence at scale, connecting external threat activity to internal exposure risk and enabling real-time action across SIEM, SOAR, XDR, cloud, and SASE environments to stop breaches.
