CrowdStrike has announced plans to acquire Onum, a specialist in real-time telemetry pipeline management.
Onum, recognised for its innovative in-memory data architecture, is set to accelerate the capabilities of CrowdStrike’s Falcon Next-Gen SIEM, which is becoming central to modern security operations centres (SOCs).
The deal aims to enhance Falcon Next-Gen SIEM by providing faster, autonomous detection and seamless data integration. Although the acquisition value has not been disclosed, CrowdStrike said the move will eliminate long-standing data migration bottlenecks while delivering real-time intelligence to customers.
CrowdStrike offers a cloud-native cybersecurity platform that protects endpoints, identities, cloud workloads, and enterprise data. Its Falcon platform uses AI-powered detection, real-time threat intelligence and lightweight architecture to deliver rapid, scalable protection and automated responses to cyber threats.
Onum, built on a stateless, in-memory design, focuses on delivering speed, scale, and efficiency in handling security and observability data. Its technology allows data filtering and detection to begin in the pipeline, significantly reducing costs and response times while enhancing data control for customers.
The acquisition will enable native data streaming within Falcon Next-Gen SIEM, removing the need for third-party migration tools. By integrating Onum, CrowdStrike expects to deliver up to five times faster data processing, cut storage costs by 50%, and achieve 70% faster incident response with reduced data ingestion overhead.
CrowdStrike CEO and founder George Kurtz said, “Our Next-Gen SIEM is the engine that powers the modern SOC, and data is the fuel that makes the engine run. Onum is both a pipeline and a filter, which will stream high-quality, filtered data directly into the platform to drive autonomous cybersecurity at scale. This is how we stop breaches at the speed of AI while giving customers complete control over their entire data ecosystem – well beyond cybersecurity.”
Onum founder and CEO Pedro Castillo said, “Onum was founded on the belief that pipelines should do more than transport data, they should transform data into real-time intelligence. By joining CrowdStrike, we can deliver this vision at unprecedented scale to accelerate SOC transformation on a global scale. I’m incredibly proud of what our team has accomplished in defining real-time telemetry pipeline management, and we look forward to bringing that innovation to the Falcon platform.”
