CrowdStrike has revealed that Project QuiltWorks will now be offered to small and medium-sized businesses (SMBs) worldwide. This move allows their enterprise-grade frontier AI risk protection setup to be available to all organizations, regardless of size. The situation is such that AI-powered malicious models have shortened the timeline between vulnerability discovery by cybercriminals and the time it takes them to exploit them, thereby increasing the speed and scale of cyberthreats. This has resulted in a lot of small businesses that do not have adequate internal resources to deal with cybersecurity threats to run the risk of being affected. To take QuiltWorks to more customers, CrowdStrike is using its international distributor, cloud marketplace and channel partner ecosystem. Among the notable partners are Arrow Electronics, Ignition Technology, Nord Security Pax8 TD SYNNEX, Westcon-Comstor and Zip Security.

Powered by frontier AI models from OpenAI and Anthropic, Project QuiltWorks integrates CrowdStrike’s AI-driven vulnerability discovery and prioritization with specialized remediation services, hardened AWS cloud infrastructure, and cyber insurance financial protection. Emphasizing the strategic necessity of democratization across the channel, Daniel Bernard, chief business officer, CrowdStrike, stated: “Frontier AI has fundamentally shifted cybersecurity from risk management to business imperative. SMBs are the backbone of the global economy and need the same standard of protection as the world’s largest enterprises. QuiltWorks has proven itself that standard, attempted by others, replicated by none. The channel is how QuiltWorks can reach every organization, regardless of size, sector, or geography.” By enabling MSPs and MSSPs to deliver this unified framework at scale, CrowdStrike empowers SMBs to defend against machine-speed attacks while building repeatable, high-growth AI security practices on the Falcon platform.
