Out of all businesses, SMBs are the most vulnerable to cyberattacks due to the evolving nature of threats and their limited resources. The cybersecurity landscape, as we know, changes often with new attack methods and sophisticated tools emerging constantly. This makes it difficult for SMBs to keep up with the latest threats and ensure their defenses are adequate.
Also, many SMBs face challenges related to IT resources, budget constraints, and outdated technology. The lack of dedicated IT staff hinders their ability to implement effective security measures.
And there's the challenge around limited budgets. SMBs don’t have the revenue like larger enterprises due. Therefore, it prevents them from investing in the necessary hardware, software and services to protect their systems.
To help SMBs overcome these challenges, CrowdStrike expanded its partnership with 1Password to simplify security for 150,000 customers, with a focus on SMBs.
CrowdStrike redefined modern security with an advanced cloud-native platform for protecting critical areas of enterprise risk – endpoints and cloud workloads, identity and data. 1Password uses strong encryption to protect user data and offers features like autofill, password generation and secure sharing.
Through an easy-to-use bundle, customers of 1Password Extended Access Management now have access to the enterprise-grade protection they need to stop ransomware and data breaches with CrowdStrike Falcon Go.
“Transformative partnerships that unlock novel customer value challenge the status quo. That’s exactly what CrowdStrike and 1Password are doing together across device security and passwords for 150,000 SMBs,” said Daniel Bernard, Chief Business Officer at CrowdStrike. “The synergy between CrowdStrike and 1Password is rooted in our shared commitment to protecting businesses of all sizes from evolving cyber threats.”
Powered by the AI-native CrowdStrike Falcon cybersecurity platform and purpose-built for SMBs, Falcon Go allows users of all skill levels to quickly and easily deploy industry-leading protection to stop the modern cyberattacks that legacy antivirus solutions often miss.
By integrating next-gen antivirus from Falcon Go with 1Password Extended Access Management, this bundled solution reduces the costs and complexity of securing every identity, application and device in SMB environments.
“This partnership not only strengthens our ability to protect against emerging threats, including BYOD and shadow IT, but also provides our customers with a comprehensive and user-friendly security solution,” said Jeff Shiner, CEO at 1Password.
1Password's expertise in password management complements CrowdStrike's focus on endpoint protection. Together, they offer a more comprehensive security solution for businesses of all sizes, especially SMBs.
