CrowdStrike and Cribl Expand Partnership with CrowdStream for Next-Gen SIEM

While SIEM solutions have existed for decades now, the market has faced recent upheaval with the advent of cloud-native solutions and a surge of mergers and acquisitions in the last year. As the SIEM market undergoes seismic shifts, CrowdStrike and Cribl have joined forces to help SOCs with their modernization journey.

We’re pleased to share that CrowdStrike and Cribl are expanding our partnership to help organizations take the next step in their SIEM journey. We’re excited to announce the general availability of CrowdStream for CrowdStrike Falcon® Next-Gen SIEM, powered by Cribl, as well as our new State of the SIEM Market report, which delves into the forces shaping the landscape today.

How CrowdStrike Falcon Next-Gen SIEM and Cribl Are Reshaping the SIEM Journey

Today’s cybersecurity challenges demand immediate access to actionable data. With sophisticated threats increasing and adversaries moving faster than ever before, organizations need to overcome data silos and gain real-time visibility across their environments to keep up.

CrowdStream is a native capability within Falcon Next-Gen SIEM. In addition to our existing integration with Cribl Stream, CrowdStream allows security teams to easily connect and route data from any source to the CrowdStrike Falcon® platform or select destinations while minimizing the complexity and cost of connecting data sources.

CrowdStream enables SOCs to streamline data flows, prioritize high-value sources and reduce complexity so teams can focus on their most important tasks. By simplifying data management and empowering faster detection, our partnership offers a scalable, resilient solution that helps SOCs achieve security outcomes that meet today’s demands and tomorrow’s challenges.

With CrowdStrike and Cribl, teams can stop worrying about the operational burden of getting data in, and shift to prioritizing high-value data sources mapped to critical security use cases. The result? Faster detection, fewer manual processes and quicker time-to-value — all while achieving superior security outcomes. It’s a game-changer, offering organizations a unified, cost-effective solution to tackle the most complex security challenges with precision and speed.

Insights from the State of the SIEM Market

We further partnered to explore how SIEMs are evolving and recently published the State of the SIEM Market report. In this resource, you can learn how organizations are tackling complex environments, data overload and tool proliferation.

Key highlights:

• Demands on Data Management: 63% of companies surveyed said their data management strategies will only be sustainable for the next three years, with one-third predicting their strategies won’t last beyond 12 months.
• Uptick in Interactive Intrusions: In 2023, there was a 60% year-over-year increase in campaigns where adversaries used hands-on intrusion techniques to outmaneuver defenses. 
• Automation Among the Top Priorities: 41% of organizations said they plan to improve their incident response processes by automating response and remediation workflows in the next 12 months. 
• Expanding choice in SIEM providers: Based on telemetry data observed from Cribl Stream customers, Falcon Next-Gen SIEM has become one of the fastest-growing destinations for sending data, with 260% year-over-year growth in 2024. The rapid growth of security and storage destinations highlights the growing need for intelligent data management and infrastructure modernization.

It’s clear organizations are no longer able to rely on legacy SIEMs to tackle the data deluge and defend against modern attacks. With recent waves in market consolidation, it’s time for security teams to reevaluate their logging strategies for a more sustainable solution.

Reshaping the SIEM Landscape with Cribl

We’re excited to continue developing our strategic partnership with Cribl to help security teams overcome critical data challenges and achieve superior security outcomes. Together, we’re simplifying the process of pulling together dispersed data from across environments, making it easier for organizations to migrate and streamline their SIEM operations. This partnership is transforming how teams manage their data pipelines, enabling faster, optimized data handling to unify visibility and take control across their environment.
