Rubrik Expands Identity Security Integration with CrowdStrike to Counter Rising Cyber Threats

Cybersecurity firm Rubrik has announced an expanded integration with the CrowdStrike Falcon cybersecurity platform, aimed at strengthening enterprise defenses against increasingly sophisticated identity-driven attacks.

The collaboration brings together Rubrik Identity Resilience and CrowdStrike Falcon Next-Gen Identity Security, creating a unified solution that not only blocks and detects threats but also enables organizations to surgically roll back malicious identity changes and restore compromised identity providers to a secure, immutable state.

Identity threats have become a primary attack vector as organizations grapple with hybrid IT environments spanning on-premises and cloud systems. Falcon Next-Gen Identity Security already protects human, non-human, and AI-based identities by blocking unauthorized access, preventing privilege escalation, and halting lateral movement. Rubrik’s expanded capabilities now add the ability to reverse malicious actions and recover affected identity systems, ensuring continuity in critical business operations.

“Identity-driven attacks demand both speed and precision,” said Anneka Gupta, Chief Product Officer at Rubrik. “By expanding Falcon Next-Gen Identity Security with rollback and recovery, we’re giving customers a complete solution – detect, adapt, and reverse – that minimizes disruption and keeps operations running in the face of identity-based threats.”

The development holds significant relevance for India, where organizations face mounting challenges in securing hybrid identities. Ashish Gupta, Managing Director, India & Head of Engineering at Rubrik, noted that identities remain the top target for attackers and traditional detection methods are no longer sufficient. He stressed that with Rubrik Identity Resilience combined with CrowdStrike’s AI-driven protection, Indian enterprises will be able to stop attacks faster, reduce disruption, and build greater resilience across complex environments, ultimately safeguarding both business continuity and customer trust.

The integration further enhances security operations by correlating suspicious identity changes in real time across providers such as Active Directory, Entra ID, and Okta, and then initiating rollback and recovery actions directly within the Falcon console. With Rubrik Security Cloud’s connections to Falcon Fusion SOAR, Next-Gen SIEM, Falcon Threat Intelligence, and Charlotte AI, security teams are also able to streamline investigations and orchestrate recovery workflows more efficiently.

Industry observers note that the partnership between Rubrik and CrowdStrike reflects a wider shift in cybersecurity toward adaptive, AI-driven protection, where prevention is complemented by rapid recovery to ensure resilience in the face of evolving identity-based threats.
