The market pricing and negotiation leverage has certainly changed for many organizations in the process of licensing, renewals, etc.Vice President - Enterprise Platforms & Cybersecurity in Energy and Utilities2 months ago
We are not re-evaluating our relationship, we are in discussions with them to expand the services we purchase from them & feel the recent incident gives us additional leverage in pricing discussions.
Our goal is to maintain robust cybersecurity measures that protect our organization effectively. At the same time, it is evident that we must reduce our dependency on single points of failure without compromising the safety of our systems and customers.
We are committed to making informed, strategic decisions rather than reacting impulsively to a single event. We are not currently re-evaluating our relationship with CrowdStrike, but we are assessing whether this accidental balance is beneficial for us in the short term. Additionally, we are exploring options to eliminate or reduce dependency and single points of failure in the long term.
