CrowdStrike looks to strike a deal with the crowd

Cybersecurity firm CrowdStrike filed with the SEC last week to go public, joining the fray of tech IPOs. Most of the firm’s patent documents in the AI Cybersecurity sector were filed around the time it was hired to investigate the Russia-linked hack on the DNC back in 2016. However, there have only been two patent filings in the second half of 2017 and none so far in 2018 for technologies using artificial intelligence, which may have been a result of the firm’s $140 million net loss in the 2018 fiscal year. Nevertheless, CrowdStrike has a patent document published this week directed to inferential exploit detection, which shows that the company is still willing to invest in IP and is hoping that the IPO would turn things around.
