CrowdStrike and Omnissa: A Strategic Partnership for Enhanced Cybersecurity

CrowdStrike Holdings, Inc. (CRWD) has recently announced a strategic partnership with Omnissa, a leading digital work platform company, to deliver real-time threat detection and automated remediation for Virtual Desktop Infrastructure (VDI) and physical desktop environments. This collaboration aims to improve customers' digital work experience and productivity while bolstering cybersecurity in hybrid work environments.

The integration of CrowdStrike's Falcon cybersecurity platform with Omnissa's platform, built on VMware's Horizon and Workspace ONE, combines advanced endpoint management and robust cybersecurity. This partnership enables administrators to quickly identify and remediate virtual desktops without the Falcon sensor and rapidly deploy CrowdStrike's AI-native protection to VDI sessions. Additionally, the Omnissa Platform can ingest vulnerability and threat status directly from the Falcon platform, centralizing threat observation, risk assessment, and automated remediation in both physical and virtual desktops.


Daniel Bernard, chief business officer at CrowdStrike, emphasized the significance of this partnership in ensuring the best cybersecurity protection for VDI and UEM deployments. Bharath Rangarajan, chief product officer at Omnissa, highlighted the strategic value of the collaboration for organizations struggling with the increasing complexity of hybrid workstations and escalating cyber threats.

This partnership is expected to have a positive impact on CrowdStrike's market share and revenue streams. By offering a comprehensive, security-first approach to remote and hybrid work solutions, CrowdStrike and Omnissa can attract and retain customers in the competitive cybersecurity landscape. The integration of their platforms opens up new market segments and geographies, driving potential revenue growth for both companies.


The collaboration between CrowdStrike and Omnissa also presents operational efficiency and cost-saving synergies. By streamlining threat detection, prevention, and remediation processes, the partnership can lead to increased profitability for both companies. As the demand for robust cybersecurity solutions continues to grow, this strategic alliance positions CrowdStrike and Omnissa to capitalize on market opportunities and deliver value to their customers.
