Kudelski Security Joins CrowdStrike Project QuiltWorks to Tackle AI Risk

Kudelski Security, the cybersecurity division of the Kudelski Group (SIX: KUD.S), announced at Fal.Con Europe 2026 that it has joined CrowdStrike Project QuiltWorks as part of the initiative’s expansion across Europe. The collaboration aims to help organizations address frontier AI risk by combining AI-powered vulnerability discovery with expert-led remediation. As frontier AI accelerates both the discovery and exploitation of vulnerabilities, security teams face a shifting challenge: finding weaknesses is no longer enough. Organizations must understand which exposures matter most, validate real-world risk, assign ownership, and mobilize remediation before attackers can exploit them. Through Project QuiltWorks, Kudelski Security will leverage its Managed Risk & Exposure (MRX) Services Suite to turn AI-powered findings into prioritized action.

Project QuiltWorks integrates frontier AI models, CrowdStrike intelligence, real-time security data, hardened cloud infrastructure, agentic automation from Falcon IQ, partner-led remediation, and financial protection from cyber insurance leaders. Kudelski Security’s MRX services align closely with this model, focusing on continuous risk reduction rather than simply generating more findings. The company applies its MRX expertise directly to the CrowdStrike Falcon Exposure suite, including Falcon Exposure Management, vulnerability management, external attack surface management, and asset visibility. Its MRX Operations service correlates vulnerabilities, identity exposure, misconfiguration, cloud, endpoint, operational technology, and threat intelligence into one prioritized view of risk. Kudelski Security analysts and advisors then add business and operational context to validate priorities, guide remediation, support governance, and report progress to security and executive teams.

“AI is changing both sides of cybersecurity. It is helping defenders find risk faster, but it is also increasing the speed and sophistication of the threat landscape. No single organization can address that challenge alone,” said David Chetrit, Chief Executive Officer, Kudelski Security. “Joining Project QuiltWorks builds on our long-standing partnership with CrowdStrike and brings together machine-speed discovery with the expertise and context required to act on it. Our role is to help clients understand what matters most, validate the risk and turn intelligence into measurable risk reduction.” Daniel Bernard, Chief Business Officer at CrowdStrike, added, “Project QuiltWorks is about scaling and localizing the expertise and remediation capacity customers need to move from finding risk to fixing it. Kudelski Security brings deep experience in exposure management, remediation, and complex customer environments - as well as years of market-leading success with the Falcon platform - uniquely positioning them to turn AI-powered findings into practical action and measurable outcomes for customers at scale.”

Kudelski Security also brings offensive security capabilities that can independently validate prioritized exposures, helping clients act on proven risk rather than theoretical severity. This is particularly important in complex environments, including OT, where business criticality, regulatory requirements, and operational constraints can change how remediation should be approached. The MRX service suite is designed to work across existing customer environments rather than forcing a rip-and-replace. CrowdStrike Falcon Exposure Management is supported within MRX alongside other leading exposure technologies, allowing Kudelski Security to adapt to each client’s estate while maintaining a unified risk view. The same model extends across converged IT and operational technology environments, where Kudelski Security combines OT-specific detection and exposure expertise with the operational constraints of industrial and critical infrastructure clients.

The announcement extends the relationship between Kudelski Security and CrowdStrike that spans a decade. Kudelski Security was recognized as CrowdStrike’s 2024 European MSSP Partner of the Year and the 2025 International Partner of the Year, and continues to build on that partnership as AI, exposure management, and remediation become increasingly connected.
