Overview
- CrowdStrike signed a definitive agreement to buy Seraphic Security, a browser runtime security firm, with payment primarily in cash plus a stock component subject to vesting.
- The company expects the deal to close in its first quarter of FY’27, pending customary conditions, and Forbes reports an approximate $420 million valuation.
- CrowdStrike says it will integrate Seraphic’s browser‑native protection with Falcon telemetry and SGNL’s continuous authorization to provide in‑session enforcement across managed and unmanaged devices.
- Planned capabilities include securing GenAI access at the browser layer, continuous identity‑driven verification, next‑gen web data loss prevention, and disruption of session‑based threats.
- CEO George Kurtz said the goal is to decouple security from the browser to make any browser a secure enterprise browser, addressing a long‑standing blind spot where much daily work occurs.
