CrowdStrike Falcon to Run on STACKIT Sovereign Cloud

CrowdStrike and Schwarz Digits have partnered to bring the CrowdStrike Falcon cybersecurity platform to STACKIT, the sovereign cloud infrastructure operated by Schwarz Digits. The move is intended to support European enterprises that want to run advanced cybersecurity platforms while keeping data fully within EU-controlled infrastructure.

The Falcon platform will operate natively on STACKIT, allowing organizations to deploy endpoint, cloud, identity, and exposure protection while maintaining strict data residency requirements. Telemetry and detection processing for these deployments will remain inside European data centers, supporting compliance with regulations such as GDPR, the EU Cyber Resilience Act, and NIS2.

The partnership reflects growing demand among highly regulated sectors for security platforms that align with regional sovereignty requirements. Organizations operating critical infrastructure increasingly need cybersecurity tools that protect AI workloads while ensuring operational data does not leave European jurisdictions.

The Falcon platform will be available through the STACKIT cloud marketplace, expanding access to the platform across healthcare, financial services, public administration, defense, and other regulated industries. As part of the agreement, companies within the Schwarz Group will also consolidate their cybersecurity use on the CrowdStrike Falcon platform.
