CrowdStrike Named a Customers' Choice in the 2025 Gartner® Peer Insights™ 'Voice of the Customer' for User Authentication Report
CrowdStrike received the most 5-star ratings of any vendor evaluated
CrowdStrike (NASDAQ:CRWD) today announced its recognition as a Customers' Choice in the 2025 Gartner Peer Insights™ ‘Voice of the Customer' for User Authentication report. CrowdStrike has the most 5-star ratings of any vendor evaluated in the report and has a 97% Willingness to Recommend rating, based on 206 overall responses as of February 28, 2025.
"Today's adversaries aren't breaking in – they're logging in. Attackers use stolen credentials and social engineering to gain initial access, then exploit vulnerabilities and abuse remote access tools to escalate privileges and move laterally across environments," said Elia Zaitsev, chief technology officer, CrowdStrike. "The Falcon platform is the only solution that stops identity-based attacks at every stage, from initial compromise to lateral movement, across hybrid environments. We believe this recognition validates Falcon as the platform of choice for organizations looking to close protection gaps, reduce complexity, and stop evolving threats with unified, AI-powered protection."
