CrowdStrike partners with German IT provider SVA for cybersecurity expansion
CrowdStrike (NASDAQ: CRWD) announced a strategic partnership with SVA System Vertrieb Alexander GmbH to expand cybersecurity services across Germany. The agreement establishes SVA as a partner to deliver CrowdStrike's Falcon platform to public sector, enterprise, and mid-market organizations.
SVA, described as one of Germany's leading system integrators and IT service providers, will standardize on CrowdStrike's platform as a foundational component of its cybersecurity offerings. The German company employs more than 3,800 people at 29 locations nationwide.
Under the partnership, SVA will provide the full CrowdStrike Falcon platform and support services including architecture design, deployment, and managed services. The companies plan to pursue joint growth initiatives through cloud marketplaces including AWS Marketplace, STACKIT, and Google Cloud Marketplace.
"When a leading systems integrator like SVA standardizes on CrowdStrike, it underscores the competitive advantage that Falcon delivers," said Jens Pälmer, senior director of channel and alliances for Central-Eastern Europe at CrowdStrike.
Mark Sobol, head of SVA's cybersecurity business unit, stated that customers seek "measurable security outcomes without added operational burden" and described the Falcon platform as strengthening the company's ability to deliver cybersecurity solutions.
The partnership targets German organizations undergoing cloud and AI transformation. CrowdStrike's Falcon platform integrates endpoint protection, identity security, cloud security, and data protection services into a unified system.
