CrowdStrike powers security for HPE Unleash AI with NVIDIA

Tue, 2nd Dec 2025

CrowdStrike has been chosen by HPE to provide security capabilities for the HPE Unleash AI Partner Programme. The partnership places CrowdStrike's Falcon platform at the centre of security operations for HPE Private Cloud AI systems, which are co-developed with NVIDIA and aimed at businesses seeking reliable artificial intelligence solutions with enhanced protection.

Security integration

The collaboration brings CrowdStrike's protection into HPE Private Cloud AI environments. This move extends unified endpoint, identity, cloud and data protection services to enterprises deploying AI at scale across hybrid and multi-cloud setups. It also builds upon CrowdStrike's previous integration work with HPE, such as with Zerto and OpsRamp Software products.

The scope of this partnership includes the security of large language model workloads, operational AI agents, and associated infrastructure, with a particular focus on continuous protection and resilience as businesses accelerate their adoption of AI technologies.

Operational AI scale

By embedding CrowdStrike's Falcon platform into HPE's AI systems, the companies are responding to wider enterprise needs for trusted and consistent protection during the rapid operationalisation of AI applications. This approach aims to deliver always-on monitoring and remediation that matches the speed and scale demanded by modern AI workloads.

The integration allows businesses to benefit from enhanced visibility and end-to-end coverage-from initial AI agent deployment through to data handling and application lifecycle management within cloud environments.

"CrowdStrike pioneered modern cybersecurity and leads the industry in securing the AI era," said Daniel Bernard, Chief Business Officer, CrowdStrike. "HPE's recognition underscores what customers tell us every day: CrowdStrike is the platform of record for protecting AI workloads, agents, infrastructure, and data. Together with HPE and NVIDIA, we're uniting performance, scale, and security to help enterprises build trusted AI from the ground up."

Industry partnerships

The partnership leverages previous collaboration between CrowdStrike and NVIDIA, supporting always-on AI agents within cybersecurity operations. This alliance intends to help customers operationalise AI securely, complying with demands for scalable and resilient infrastructure capable of supporting rapid AI innovation.

"Through the HPE Unleash AI partner program, we're bringing together trusted innovators like CrowdStrike to help enterprises confidently operationalize AI," said Robin Braun, Vice President, AI Business Development for Hybrid Cloud, HPE. "CrowdStrike's AI-native platform and its proven integrations with HPE and NVIDIA exemplify how we're enabling secure, high-performance AI for customers."

Enterprise focus

CrowdStrike's latest role within the Unleash AI programme cements its position as a preferred security provider for AI-driven business transformations. The collaboration targets the needs of organisations looking to build and deploy secure, high-performance AI 'factories'-environments designed for developing and scaling artificial intelligence applications across industries.

The three-way partnership between CrowdStrike, HPE and NVIDIA is expected to play a central role in delivering comprehensive protection, unified monitoring, and compatibility with high-throughput, enterprise-grade computing solutions.
