    CrowdStrike Announces GA of Falcon AIDR to Secure AI Attack Surface

    With unified AI prompt-layer protection, CrowdStrike secures enterprise AI everywhere it happens – from development through workforce usage

    AUSTIN, Texas – December 15, 2025 – CrowdStrike (NASDAQ: CRWD) today announced the general availability of Falcon® AI Detection and Response (AIDR), extending the Falcon® platform to secure the fastest-growing attack surface in the AI era: the AI prompt and agent interaction layer. With Falcon AIDR, CrowdStrike delivers the industry’s first unified platform that secures every layer of enterprise AI – data, models, agents, identities, infrastructure, and interactions – from development through workforce usage. 

    “Prompt injection is a frontier security problem. Adversaries are injecting hidden instructions into GenAI tools to weaponize the very systems transforming how work gets done,” said Michael Sentonas, president of CrowdStrike. “Falcon AIDR secures every prompt, response, and agent action in real time, extending the power of the Falcon platform to the interaction layer and delivering complete protection across our customers’ AI infrastructure.”

    Securing AI Development and Use Across the Enterprise

    CrowdStrike pioneered modern endpoint security with EDR and brings the same architectural advantage to AI with AIDR, protecting the interaction layer where AI systems reason, decide, and take action. Adversaries are targeting this layer, using hidden instructions to hijack agents, manipulate outcomes, and access sensitive data. Today, the AI interaction layer is the new attack surface and prompts are the new malware. Falcon AIDR delivers unified, real-time protection across development workflows and workforce AI usage, securing prompts, responses, and agent actions at enterprise scale.

    Falcon AIDR delivers unified visibility, governance, and enforcement across enterprise AI development and workforce usage through the following capabilities:

    • See AI Everywhere: Gain deep visibility into how employees use AI and how agents operate with runtime logs for compliance and investigations.
    • Block Prompt Injection Attacks: Stop prompt injection, jailbreaks, and unsafe content in real time, powered by intelligence from deep research on adversarial prompt datasets and 180+ known prompt injection techniques.
    • Stop Risky AI Use in Real Time: Block unsafe interactions, contain malicious agent actions, and enforce policy controls in real time.
    • Protect Sensitive Data: Automatically detect and block credentials, regulated data, and other sensitive information before it can reach models, agents, or external AI systems.
    • Accelerate Secure AI Innovation: Build secure applications and agents with built-in safeguards for developers, bringing AI innovation to market faster while reducing risk.



    Unified AI Security on the Falcon Platform


    With Falcon AIDR as part of the Falcon platform, CrowdStrike delivers a unified security model for AI, protecting everything from the environments where AI runs to the interaction layer where prompts and agents operate. Falcon provides end-to-end security for AI development and workforce use, giving organizations a single, unified approach to protecting AI at enterprise scale.

  • The Global Success of SAP Business One

    The Global Success of SAP Business One

    In the business world, scale shapes every decision. For smaller companies, the path to growth is rarely paved with the same stones as their larger counterparts. Their requirements are distinct and often more immediate; they need solutions that are nimble and adaptable.

    Rather than a one-size-fits-all approach, the SAP Business One solution was designed to empower small businesses and the lower midmarket with an ERP solution that can grow with them and meet their evolving needs as they grow and prosper.

    Introducing SAP Business One

    Today, more than 83,000 customers and 1.2 million users across more than 170 countries rely on SAP Business One, supported by a global network of 850 partners and over 500 industry and country-specific extensions.

    Experience a single, affordable ERP solution for managing your entire company

    “It’s designed to be easy to start with,” said Darius Heydarian, head of Partner Solution Enablement SAP Business One. “Organizations can begin with just a single user and scale up as their needs grow, whether that means adding more people, locations, or subsidiaries.” The solution can adapt to how smaller organizations work, offering both quick setups for remote sites and coordinated rollouts across regions. It helps provide a modern, browser-based experience and can integrate smoothly with SAP’s analytic solutions and automation tools.

    The role of partners

    SAP recently reaffirmed the strategic importance of SAP Business One within the SAP solution portfolio. SAP Chief Partner Officer Karl Fahrbach emphasized SAP’s continued commitment to SAP Business One, highlighting the crucial role of the partner ecosystem: “SAP continues to invest in the future of SAP Business One. Our partner ecosystem remains at the heart of this success—driving autonomy, resilience, growth, and winning new customers every day.”

    Partners play a central role in the SAP Business One ecosystem. SAP works closely with a vast network of partners that are experts in implementing and supporting SAP Business One. These partners have the expertise to tailor solutions to each customer’s specific requirements, whether it’s industry functionality, localization, or regulatory compliance.

    “Partners also contribute to the extensibility of SAP Business One, developing extensions and industry solutions that help customers address unique challenges,” Heydarian said. The collaboration between SAP and its partners helps ensure that customers benefit from both SAP’s technology and the specialized knowledge of local experts.

    Customers in scope

    “Recently, one of our partners shared a customer example with me that perfectly reflects the nature of companies in the market segment we are targeting with SAP Business One,” Heydarian said. “The business had three employees when they started using the solution. Over the years, they expanded and employ 250 people today—without outgrowing their software platform.”

    A typical SAP Business One customer is a small or midsize company looking for an affordable, flexible, and scalable ERP solution. These organizations often need to manage a range of business functions—from accounting and financials to purchasing, inventory, sales, customer relationships, and reporting—all in one place. SAP Business One helps them gain control, streamline processes, and make strategic decisions based on real-time information.

    The solution is customizable to meet evolving business needs and supports international expansion with 28 languages and 50 country-specific localizations. Local support is provided by over 850 partners, helping to ensure that customers can get help tailored to their specific requirements.

    “We are proud of the fact that SAP Business One is part of SAP’s solution portfolio,” Heydarian said. “Three thousand net-new customers choose SAP Business One every year. On average, 10 customers select SAP Business One every day.”

  • New Site Agreement signed for BASF SE at the Ludwigshafen Site

    The management and employee representatives of BASF SE have today concluded a new site agreement with the title “Shaping the Future for a Strong Site.” The agreement is intended to run for five years. It will initially apply for three years, from January 1, 2026, to December 31, 2028, for employees of BASF SE at the Ludwigshafen site. It will automatically be extended by a further two years if the agreed targets for restoring profitability are achieved.

    The new site agreement addresses the current challenges facing the chemical industry. In an economically and geopolitically challenging environment, the agreement focuses on the competitiveness and adaptability of the site. It lays the foundation for structural changes, protects employees from compulsory redundancies, and sends a strong signal for investment and partnership-based cooperation. Ludwigshafen remains central to BASF’s long-term success as its largest Verbund site.

    Key contents of the agreement: 

    • Job Security: BASF will refrain from compulsory redundancies for the duration of the agreement.
    • Investments: BASF will continue to invest in the Ludwigshafen site and further develop it to be Europe’s leading sustainable chemical site. BASF intends to invest around 2 billion euros annually in Ludwigshafen (at least 1.5 billion euros) to enable modernization and expansion of infrastructure, capacities, and the sustainable transformation of the site.
    • Transformation and Flexibility: The sustainable transformation and safeguarding of the site’s competitiveness will bring changes for all employees. This includes simplifying the organization, increasing flexibility, using digitalization and artificial intelligence for continuous productivity gains, and consistently focusing on sustainable cost optimization.
    • Modern Working Time Management: Working time management will be further developed, and digital tools will support personnel deployment.
    • Promotion of Performance and Development: The agreement promotes a performance culture and specifically focuses on the qualification and further development of employees. A shared understanding of learning as part of everyday work, modern learning formats and targeted qualification offerings ensure employability and the innovative strength of the workforce.
    • Health and Quality of Life: BASF invests in health programs and promotes individual preventive healthcare as well as mental health. BASF creates sustainable mobility solutions, such as expanding e-charging infrastructure and promoting the use of public transport. The company is also committed to education, equal opportunities and social cohesion in the Rhine-Neckar metropolitan region.
    • Reliable Framework and transparent Communication: The agreement creates clear framework conditions for implementing the transformation and provides for regular reviews of its implementation. Management and the works council are committed to a solution-oriented dialogue.

    Katja Scharpwinkel, Member of the Board of Executive Directors and Industrial Relations Director, BASF SE:
    “The new site agreement is the result of constructive negotiations between management and employee representatives. It enables necessary changes and flexibility and supports the return to competitiveness at the Ludwigshafen site. At the same time, it provides guidance and reliability in an environment characterized by change. A period of at least three years without compulsory redundancies creates reliability for implementing our transformation projects.

    We will also continue to invest in Ludwigshafen – this shows that the site has a future, and our employees make a decisive contribution with their expertise and experience.”

    Sinischa Horvat, Chairman of the Works Council, BASF SE:
    “The tough negotiations were worth it: The central importance of the Ludwigshafen site with production, research and development, marketing, specialist departments, infrastructure and services is ensured by concrete investments, and employees are protected from compulsory redundancies during the term of the agreement. Given the persistent structural and economic challenges, this outcome was is by no means a foregone conclusion. But in the end, it is a clear commitment to the site, to the employees – who are the key to success – and an expression of confidence that together we can get BASF SE back on track for success. When we start 2026, our minds will again be able to focus on the major structural challenges we need to tackle.”
