AI has made advanced cybersecurity methods more widely available—and put sophisticated cyberattack techniques into the hands of threat actors everywhere. CrowdStrike has spent the last decade and a half reshaping the security landscape, and now, the company continues to reimagine what state-of-the-art looks like when both the good guys and the bad actors are learning what these powerful tools can do for them.

In this special episode of Spotlight On, recorded live at Accel during the RSA Conference, Accel’s Sameer Gandhi joins CrowdStrike Founder and CEO George Kurtz to explore the knotty challenges—and fascinating opportunities—that characterize the security industry now. They discuss how AI has changed the hierarchy of cyber threats, whether George would do anything differently if he founded CrowdStrike today, and the lessons founders can learn from F1, where team collaboration and mental toughness power the highest performers—and a fraction of a second can change everything.
