Above Security has received a strategic investment from the CrowdStrike Falcon Fund and announced an integration with the CrowdStrike Falcon platform.
The investment deepens the companies’ existing partnership and will support Above’s AI-native approach to insider risk management. Financial terms were not disclosed.
Above operates a fleet of continuously running AI agents that analyze employee and user behavior across identities, applications, data movement, and workflow context.
Rather than only identifying isolated security alerts, the platform generates investigation narratives containing behavioral timelines, contextual analysis, explanations for risk classifications, and recommended actions.
Through the CrowdStrike integration, customers will be able to use telemetry from Falcon Next-Gen SIEM to support insider risk investigations.
Above will correlate endpoint, identity, and third-party information from CrowdStrike into investigation-ready cases and feed completed investigations back into the Falcon environment.
Earlier this year, Above was selected from nearly 1,000 applicants for the CrowdStrike Cybersecurity Startup Accelerator, developed with AWS and NVIDIA, and finished as runner-up in the program.
The Falcon Fund investment follows Above’s recent $50 million financing led by Ballistic Ventures, Merlin Ventures, and Norwest.
