deloitte india expands crowdstrike alliance to deliver ai powered managed security services and bolster enterprise cyber resilience across regional markets

Deloitte Touche Tohmatsu India LLP has strengthened its strategic international alliance with CrowdStrike to deliver comprehensive managed security services in India. The collaboration combines CrowdStrike's AI-powered Falcon platform with Deloitte's advisory and operational know-how. Centralized threat management through the partnership helps deal with the growing threats from sophisticated cybercriminals and AI-enabled attacks in various industries.  

Tackling New Challenges and Operational Speed

Rapid digitalization of Indian businesses has significantly cut down the time attackers take to breach corporate networks. The key factors motivating the collaboration include:  

• Confronting record-low eCrime breakout times, which now average just 29 minutes globally, according to threat intelligence data.

• Integrating disparate security systems into a single AI-based platform, which minimizes management complexity.  

• Offering global visibility to detect all identity-based attacks and automated fraud attacks in real-time.  

Leadership Perspectives on Cyber Resilience

"India's digital transformation requires cyber resilience at its core. Through our partnership with CrowdStrike, we are delivering the powerful combination of the Falcon platform and Deloitte's cyber transformation and managed security services to help organisations detect and stop advanced threats". - Anand Tiwari, Partner at Deloitte India.

Tool Consolidation and Platform Deployments

Beyond initial platform installation, Deloitte India will manage ongoing threat hunting, incident response, and tool configuration within existing enterprise IT environments.

• Replacing disconnected point security products with automated, intelligent response workflows.

• Lowering total cost of ownership while maximizing threat detection capabilities across distributed cloud assets.

Future Outlook for Regional Cyber Operations

In order for Indian companies to keep business continuity amid the challenges posed by growing cyber threats, it is essential to combine advanced malware intelligence software and targeted human supervision. As the laws become more stringent and the number of online platforms continues to grow, partnerships in the area of managed security will play a key role in maintaining business trust. CIO Bulletin views this development as a timely merger that strengthens the resilience of India's economy.
