CrowdStrike, NVIDIA partner to secure no-code AI agent creation
CrowdStrike has announced the integration of its Charlotte AI AgentWorks platform with NVIDIA's Nemotron models, as well as enhanced protection for enterprise AI agents built using a range of NVIDIA developer tools.
The collaboration aims to help organisations build, deploy, and manage AI agents designed to automate cybersecurity operations and broader enterprise applications, leveraging both CrowdStrike's Falcon platform and NVIDIA's AI technology.
Remote agent building
Charlotte AI AgentWorks provides a no-code platform for security analysts to develop and deploy AI agents, without needing programming skills. The platform is now integrated with NVIDIA Nemotron, a set of open-source AI models that includes associated datasets and development resources. This allows organisations to use plain-language prompts to construct and configure AI agents tailored to specific organisational needs and workflows.
CrowdStrike stated that its Falcon platform, already established in protecting large language models (LLMs) within the NVIDIA Enterprise AI Factory validated design, will now also secure agents constructed with the NVIDIA NeMo developer toolkit as well as those operating across third-party ecosystems.
Expanded platform protection
The Falcon platform's extension means security and non-security AI agents can be monitored for behaviour and privilege escalation in real time, alongside enterprise-level governance and access controls. This approach is intended to ensure organisations can scale the deployment of AI agents while maintaining compliance and security standards.
Speaking about the partnership, Daniel Bernard, Chief Business Officer at CrowdStrike, commented:
"Enterprises everywhere are racing to adopt AI, and security is quickly becoming a critical enabler. Together with NVIDIA, we're delivering the groundwork of the agentic SOC – empowering every analyst to build AI agents with confidence, and ensuring they can run securely at scale with the Falcon platform. This is how organizations stop breaches and lead securely into the AI era."
Justin Boitano, Vice President, Enterprise AI Products at NVIDIA, also addressed the collaboration:
"Specialised AI agents are quickly becoming the backbone of enterprise applications, accelerating the adoption of intelligent automation across industries. By integrating NVIDIA Nemotron open models with Charlotte AI AgentWorks, we are delivering the performance, trust, and governance enterprises need to confidently build, deploy, and secure agentic AI at scale."
No-code compliance and oversight
Charlotte AI AgentWorks, available for analysts to rapidly deploy security automation, provides features designed to help with audit trails and governance. The platform allows agents to be developed, tested, and deployed with integrated oversight mechanisms. These measures, CrowdStrike described, are meant to give organisations confidence that automated or AI-driven decisions adhere to strict policy requirements and regulatory standards.
The integration also leverages NVIDIA's accelerated computing infrastructure to improve the speed and efficiency of AI agents. Nemotron's open models were highlighted by both companies as promoting transparency and customisation, enabling enterprises to build domain-specific agents for unique operational requirements.
Operational impact
Security teams employing Charlotte AI AgentWorks are expected to be able to automate Security Operations Centre (SOC) workflows using the combined telemetry and controls available in Falcon and NVIDIA platforms. The move to enable no-code agent creation is intended to reduce barriers for security teams who do not have dedicated AI or software development resources.
The companies emphasised that the Falcon platform's security measures extend to aspects such as identity protection, data integrity, and real-time response to detected anomalies in agent behaviour, with protections applied to both in-house and third-party AI agents.
CrowdStrike said its partnership with NVIDIA defines a new phase in the operationalisation of AI-driven automation within enterprise security environments. The integrated offering is designed to support secure scaling, from initial prototype development through to large-scale production and ongoing compliance monitoring.
