CrowdStrike has agreed to purchase Humio to strengthen its ability to ingest and correlate data from any log, application or feed for actionable insight and real-time protection.
The Sunnyvale, Calif.-based endpoint security giant said London-based Humio’s native ability to ingest and analyze both unstructured and semi-structured data will enhance how the CrowdStrike platform addresses DevOps and DevSecOps issues. The deal will enable CrowdStrike to provide deep, contextual index-free eXtended Detection and Response (XDR) with speed and scale.
