George Kurtz, CrowdStrike | RSAC 2025

George Kurtz, founder, president and chief executive officer of CrowdStrike, talks with theCUBE Research’s Dave Vellante at the RSAC 2025 Conference about the expanding role of artificial intelligence in cybersecurity. Their conversation explores how AI is shaping threat detection, adversary behavior and platform design.

Kurtz outlines what he calls the “AI paradox,” where rapid AI adoption brings both opportunity and risk. He emphasizes the importance of controlled data, proactive AI agents and integrated platforms to help customers manage growing attack surfaces.

The discussion also touches on the impact of geopolitics on cybersecurity strategies. Kurtz explains how evolving global tensions are influencing spending patterns and reinforcing the need for adaptable, resilient security solutions.
