HCLTech and CrowdStrike expand partnership around Falcon Guardian AI agent security

HCLTech and CrowdStrike announced (Sept 14, 2026) an expanded partnership integrating Falcon Guardian's AI Detection and Response with HCLTech's AI Security and Resilience managed services delivered through its Cybersecurity Fusion Centers.

Primarily a services/GTM expansion rather than new product capability, but extends Falcon Guardian's reach into managed-services delivery for enterprises without in-house AI security capacity.

Enterprises already using HCLTech managed security services and considering CrowdStrike Falcon Guardian for AI agent runtime protection.
