The New Apex Predator: CrowdStrike CEO George Kurtz on Adversaries Armed With AI Agents

George Kurtz, CEO of CrowdStrike, discusses how agentic AI has flattened the adversary pyramid, putting nation-state-grade tradecraft in the hands of low-skill attackers, and why open-weight models have become the tip of the spear. He covers CrowdStrike's Safe Mind lab, built with NVIDIA around red and blue security models trained on fifteen years of telemetry, the lessons from the Hugging Face incident, the case for defense dominance, and why he sees AI as a net creator of opportunity.
