Kudelski Security, the cybersecurity division of the Kudelski Group, announced at Fal.Con Europe 2026 that it is joining CrowdStrike Project QuiltWorks as part of the initiative's expansion across Europe. The move brings specialized expertise and remediation capabilities to help organizations address frontier AI risk, according to a company announcement distributed via NEWMEDIAWIRE.
The importance of the announcement lies in a shift in the cybersecurity challenge: as frontier AI accelerates vulnerability discovery and exploitation, finding weaknesses is no longer enough. Organizations must understand which exposures matter most, validate whether they present real-world risk, assign ownership and mobilize remediation before attackers can exploit them. Project QuiltWorks aims to bridge that gap by combining frontier AI models, CrowdStrike intelligence, real-time security data, hardened cloud infrastructure, agentic automation from Falcon IQ, partner-led remediation and financial protection from cyber insurance leaders.
For Kudelski Security, the model aligns closely with its Managed Risk & Exposure (MRX) Services Suite, which is built around continuous risk reduction rather than simply generating more findings. The company applies its MRX expertise directly to the CrowdStrike Falcon Exposure suite, including Falcon Exposure Management, vulnerability management, external attack surface management and asset visibility. Its MRX Operations service correlates vulnerabilities, identity exposure, misconfiguration, cloud, endpoint, operational technology and threat intelligence into one prioritized view of risk, with analysts and advisors adding business and operational context to guide remediation and report progress to executive teams.
“AI is changing both sides of cybersecurity. It is helping defenders find risk faster, but it is also increasing the speed and sophistication of the threat landscape. No single organization can address that challenge alone,” said David Chetrit, Chief Executive Officer of Kudelski Security. “Joining Project QuiltWorks builds on our long-standing partnership with CrowdStrike and brings together machine-speed discovery with the expertise and context required to act on it.”
Daniel Bernard, Chief Business Officer at CrowdStrike, said Project QuiltWorks is about scaling and localizing the expertise and remediation capacity customers need to move from finding risk to fixing it. “Kudelski Security brings deep experience in exposure management, remediation, and complex customer environments - as well as years of market-leading success with the Falcon platform - uniquely positioning them to turn AI-powered findings into practical action and measurable outcomes for customers at scale,” he said.
Kudelski Security also brings offensive security capabilities that can independently validate prioritized exposures, helping clients act on proven risk rather than theoretical severity. This is particularly important in complex environments, including operational technology, where business criticality, regulatory requirements and operational constraints can change how remediation should be approached. The MRX service suite is designed to work across existing customer environments rather than forcing a rip-and-replace, and CrowdStrike Falcon Exposure Management is supported within MRX alongside other leading exposure technologies, allowing Kudelski Security to adapt to each client's estate while maintaining a unified risk view.
The announcement extends a relationship between Kudelski Security and CrowdStrike that spans a decade. Kudelski Security was recognized as CrowdStrike's 2024 European MSSP Partner of the Year and the 2025 International Partner of the Year, and continues to build on that partnership as AI, exposure management and remediation become increasingly connected. The collaboration matters for organizations facing AI-accelerated threats because it aims to turn AI-powered discovery into prioritized, validated action, potentially reducing the window attackers have to exploit exposures. For the industry, it signals a growing emphasis on remediation capacity and partner-led expertise as AI reshapes both attack and defense. More information is available at www.kudelskisecurity.com.
