CrowdStrike announced that it is a recipient of three 2023 Geo and Global AWS Partner Awards, honoring leaders around the globe that are playing a key role helping customers drive innovation and build solutions on Amazon Web Services (AWS). Coming on the heels of CrowdStrike’s AWS ISV Partner of the Year award, the new accolades were formally announced during a Partner Awards Gala at AWS re:Invent 2023.
The Geo and Global AWS Partner Awards recognize a wide range of AWS Partners, whose business models have embraced specialization, innovation, and cooperation over the past year. Geo and Global AWS Partner Awards recognize partners whose business models continue to evolve and thrive on AWS as they work with customers. CrowdStrike received three awards, recognizing its excellence in supporting the public sector overall, state and local governments, and non-profit organizations. CrowdStrike’s awards include:
- Public Sector Partner of the Year – Global: Recognizes CrowdStrike as the top AWS Public Sector Partner with cloud-based solutions and experience supporting government, space, education, and nonprofits around the world.
- State and Local Government Partner of the Year – North America: Recognizes CrowdStrike as the top AWS Partner with the Government Competency who has delivered innovative mission-based wins for State and Local Governments.
- Non-Profit Organization (NPO) Partner of the Year – APJ: Recognizes CrowdStrike as the top AWS Partner who has delivered innovative mission-based wins for a Non-Profit.
“At a time when cybersecurity risks worldwide loom larger than ever, our partnership with AWS is more critical than ever. After being named AWS’s 2023 ISV Partner of the Year earlier this year, these new accolades add to our established position as the go to cyber leader for AWS to the public sector and non-profits worldwide,” said Daniel Bernard, chief business officer at CrowdStrike. “Our AI-native platform, mission-driven team, and relentless commitment to identifying and stopping attackers before they cause damage delivers long-term security and success for governments, education, and nonprofits across the globe. We are honored to receive multiple awards for our leadership from AWS.”
In addition, there were a number of data-driven award categories, which consisted of a unique set of metrics that helped measure AWS Partners’ performance within the past year. Canalys audited the datasets used to ensure that all measurements and calculations were objective and correct in nature.
The AWS Partner Network (APN) is a global program focused on helping companies build successful AWS-based businesses or solutions by providing business, technical, marketing, and go-to-market support. The APN includes independent software vendors (ISVs) and systems integrators (SIs) around the world, with AWS Partner participation growing significantly during the past 12 months.
A panel of AWS experts selected the winners based on strict criteria with a third-party audit conducted by Canalys.
