Your host, Alex Shevelenko, talks with Dmitri Alperovitch, Co-Founder & CTO of Crowdstrike (NASDAQ: CRWD, Market Cap: $85bn), Chairman at Silverado Policy Accelerator, National Bestselling Author (World on the Brink) and Host of the Geopolitics Decanted podcast.
Dmitri's journey from a high school enthusiast to a leading figure in the cybersecurity realm is nothing short of remarkable. Dmitri's passion for cybersecurity was ignited by his fascination with encryption and adversarial games, a flame that was fanned during his college years. The dynamic and ever-evolving nature of cybersecurity, a field where one engages in a strategic cat-and-mouse game with sentient opponents, captivated Dmitri's interest and set him on his path.
CrowdStrike's inception was a response to the burgeoning threat of nation-state attacks, with an early focus on China, and later expanding to counter threats from Russia, Iran, and North Korea. Dmitri emphasized the geopolitical roots of these cyber threats and the rising prominence of nation-state actors in the digital arena. The success of CrowdStrike, he noted, was a confluence of impeccable timing, groundbreaking innovation, and the decline of established competitors.
