SonicWall and CrowdStrike: Uniting to Redefine SMB Cybersecurity

Powerful endpoint protection paired with expert SOC response to help MSPs deliver smarter and stronger protection to SMBs.

At SonicWall, we know that no two partners are the same. Our MSP partners serve a wide variety of clients across locations and industries, and they all have different requirements. No two security stacks are identical from MSP to MSP, and that’s as it should be: MSPs know their clients’ needs best. That’s why SonicWall is committed to walking beside our MSPs as true partners, and tailoring our solutions to what our MSPs need. We’re excited to announce that we’ve continued this mission by partnering with CrowdStrike.

So what does this mean? Our valued partners can now pair CrowdStrike’s industry-leading Endpoint Detection and Response (EDR) and next-generation antivirus (NGAV) technology with SonicWall’s elite Managed Detection and Response (MDR) services. This means SMBs can now get the best of both worlds with CrowdStrike’s EDR technology and SonicWall’s Security Operations Center (SOC), which is staffed by experts in the threats SMBs (and the MSPs that serve them) face. While our initial launch is just taking place in North America, this offering will soon be rolled out globally so all of our partners can benefit.

Listening and Delivering

We believe MDR sits at the intersection of people, processes and technology. We’ve worked hard to put the right people and processes in the right places for our SOC, and this partnership with CrowdStrike both expands and improves our technology offerings. We promised our MSP partners that we would meet them wherever they are on their security journey, and we believe that this partnership is a crucial next step in following through on that promise.

Why This Matters

• Expertise Tailored to SMBs

SonicWall has decades of experience working with MSPs and SMBs. By teaming up with CrowdStrike, we’re giving MSPs scalable tools that fit SMB needs— and budgets— without compromising on quality.

• Staying Ahead of Threats

CrowdStrike’s EDR technology is designed to detect, respond to and stop advanced threats before they cause damage. Combined with SonicWall’s expert SOC team, SMBs can rest easy knowing their protection never takes a break.

• Empowering MSPs

This isn’t just about offering great tools, it’s about helping MSPs succeed. With this integration, MSPs have a stronger, more competitive offering for their clients, making it easier to deliver advanced protection with confidence.

A Partnership Built for the Future of SMB Security

This partnership helps empower SonicWall MSPs with the tools and expertise they need to protect their clients in an increasingly complex threat landscape - this isn’t just about adding another product to our portfolio—it’s about raising the bar for SMB security. By combining CrowdStrike’s industry-leading EDR and NGAV technology with SonicWall’s proven MDR services and expert SOC team, we’re delivering a solution that MSPs can rely on to address today’s most pressing cybersecurity challenges.

This is just the beginning. As we expand this offering globally, we’re excited to see how this collaboration will continue to help our partners grow their businesses while giving SMBs the confidence to thrive securely. Together with CrowdStrike, we’re not just meeting the needs of our MSP partners—we’re anticipating the future of cybersecurity and building it, one solution at a time.
