CrowdStrike
CEO: George Kurtz
Focused on big data technologies, CrowdStrike recently rolled out a new collaborative platform aimed at helping researchers to analyze malicious code and execute the examinations and reverse engineering necessary to developing strategies and technologies to defeat the malware. While attempts to disassemble malware are nothing new, the company is attempting to break down the silos of research and to augment a unique level of collaboration. The company was co-founded by George Kurtz, former CEO of Foundstone and Worldwide CTO at McAfee, Dmitri Alperovitch, former VP of Threat Research at McAfee, and Gregg Marston, former CFO at Networks in Motion, and has received $26 million in Series A funding from Warburg Pincus.
