VAST AI OS with CrowdStrike

Secure AI at the Foundation, From Data to Runtime

From AI cloud providers to enterprises and foundation model builders, the world's leading AI organizations run on VAST Data. Now, with CrowdStrike's enterprise-grade protection integrated across the VAST AI Operating System, every stage of the AI lifecycle, from data ingestion and model training to runtime and inference, is protected at the data layer.

Together, VAST and CrowdStrike establish a unified security model for enterprise AI, combining VAST AI OS’ native governance and platform controls with the CrowdStrike Falcon® platform’s threat detection and automated response.

VAST Data and CrowdStrike Establish a Unified Security Model for the AI Lifecycle

AI is evolving faster than traditional security can follow. VAST Data and CrowdStrike are changing that—securing the full AI lifecycle at the data layer.

VAST Data and CrowdStrike Establish a Unified Security Model for the AI Lifecycle

Designed for Security

VAST was built to be the operating system for AI, with security and governance designed into the platform. This partnership with CrowdStrike extends continuous threat detection and coordinated response into AI workflows and runtime environments—helping customers operate enterprise AI with greater confidence as they scale.

AI Story

The AI Data Platform Built to Secure What Matters Most

As enterprises move from AI experimentation to full production, the attack surface grows. AI systems rely on continuous data ingestion, dynamic workflows, and distributed runtime environments, creating new vectors for malware, model poisoning, and unauthorized access.

VAST Data and CrowdStrike are building a joint integration to address this challenge directly. By integrating the CrowdStrike Falcon platform’s enterprise threat detection and automated response with VAST's native data-layer governance and platform controls, organizations can secure the full AI lifecycle, from development through production, without sacrificing performance or scale.

From hyperscale AI cloud providers to global enterprises, VAST is the only AI data platform capable of delivering real-time AI-driven intelligence at scale—now secured end-to-end with CrowdStrike.

For Enterprise AI

Protect AI Workflows at the Data Layer

Enterprise AI is only as secure as the data it runs on. Legacy security tools weren't designed for the dynamic, distributed environments that modern AI requires. VAST and CrowdStrike close that gap, embedding security directly into AI workflows.

  • Continuous monitoring and threat detection across AI data pipelines and containerized runtime environments

  • Protection against malware, compromised data, model poisoning, and unauthorized access

  • Shared telemetry between VAST and CrowdStrike Falcon for coordinated, real-time threat response

  • Native Zero-Trust security and multi-tenant data access controls built into the VAST AI OS

AI Lifecycle

Security Embedded Across Every Stage of AI

Most security tools protect the perimeter. VAST and CrowdStrike go further, securing AI from the inside out, at every stage of the lifecycle.

  • Data ingestion: Workflow scanning prevents compromised or untrusted data from entering AI pipelines

  • Model training: Continuous detection across multi-node GPU training environments at any scale

  • Runtime & inference: Real-time response contains threats at the source with minimal operational disruption

  • End-to-end: Extended NVIDIA collaboration further protects AI pipelines across infrastructure, workloads, and data

Security Embedded Across Every Stage of AI
Securing the Future of AI

AI is becoming the operating system of the modern enterprise. VAST operates at the data layer where AI comes to life, and CrowdStrike secures where enterprise value is created. Together, we’re securing AI at its foundation.
