CrowdStrike to buy two AI security startups for nearly $500 million

It will buy Fiddler AI, which monitors AI agents inside companies, and Dreadnode, which tests AI models and agents for flaws before launch.

According to reports, CrowdStrike is paying around $400 million for Fiddler AI and about $95 million for Dreadnode.

Fiddler AI will become Falcon Observe on CrowdStrike's Falcon platform, and Dreadnode's testing results will feed its Falcon Guardian product.
