Director of global alliances at CrowdStrike, Vivek Kumar, joins host Kris Reddy on this episode.
Now a household name in cybersecurity, Vivek shares the inception point and the many innovations CrowdStrike has made.
A sensor called Falcon can scale with the addition of 10s or 100s of new servers. Falcon can work on a personal laptop to EC2 Instance. Cloud-native and cloud-delivered, there's no need to restart anything as the network scales up.
Vivek manages CrowdStrike's partnership with AWS, noting that they complement each other's business. CrowdStrike also works with and can be applied to on-prem networks to any cloud provider.
Vivek’s career has spanned programming to sales and marketing, and he provides insights into the learning he has gained.
