“We’re at an inflection point in cybersecurity,” Jensen Huang told a sold-out crowd at CrowdStrike’s Fal.Con 2026 in Las Vegas Tuesday. Attacks are now automated. Defense has to be, too.
The NVIDIA founder and CEO joined CrowdStrike CEO and founder George Kurtz to announce CrowdStrike SafeMind, its agentic cybersecurity system developed by the CrowdStrike Cyber Superintelligence Lab.
“This is the beginning of a new age of cybersecurity,” Huang told the crowd of 10,000 security professionals. “On the one hand, the adversaries are going to be more armed than ever. On the other hand, all of you are going to be more armed than ever.”
SafeMind combines CrowdStrike’s purpose-built, beyond frontier-capable models and customized agentic harnesses, with defensive models built on NVIDIA Nemotron, in a continuous coevolution loop where offense and defense repeatedly challenge and improve each other.
CrowdStrike also announced CrowdStrike Falcon IQ to operationalize Project QuiltWorks through agentic workload automation and expanded its CrowdStrike Guardian AI safety solution.
