CrowdStrike Named a Leader in The Forrester Wave™: Proactive Security Platforms, Q3 2026

CrowdStrike reports that it was named a Leader in Forrester’s Q3 2026 evaluation of proactive security platforms, receiving the highest Strategy score and maximum scores for Innovation and Roadmap. The company argues that proactive security is shifting from basic vulnerability discovery toward contextual exposure management that identifies which risks are most likely to be exploited and prioritizes remediation. Its Falcon Exposure Management product combines exposure data, threat intelligence, exploit prediction through ExPRT.AI, attack-path analysis, runtime asset information, and compensating-control awareness within the Falcon platform. CrowdStrike also highlights Charlotte AI and AgentWorks for automating and customizing risk assessment and remediation workflows, while emphasizing that analysts retain decision-making responsibility. The post cites Intermex’s reported 98% reduction in critical DMZ vulnerabilities after using the product and presents integrated exposure management and security operations as a way to shorten the path from identifying risk to fixing it.
