CrowdStrike has signed a definitive agreement to acquire Dreadnode. The AI security testing startup will join the Falcon platform and CrowdStrike's Cyber Superintelligence Lab, bringing automated AI security testing to enterprises so teams can find and fix weaknesses in models and agents before production. Dreadnode frames it as "a call-up to the big leagues," not an exit, with its mission unchanged: ensuring AI strengthens defenders faster than adversaries.
