Intel Corporation (NASDAQ:INTC) is one of the 7 Best Quantum Computing Stocks to Invest In According to Analysts. Intel Corporation (NASDAQ:INTC) secured an important partnership with leading cybersecurity firm CrowdStrike on March 25. CrowdStrike announced an extended partnership with Intel to improve security for AI-powered PCs. The companies are working together to optimize CrowdStrike’s Falco platform for Intel devices, helping organizations detect threats faster and protect sensitive data. As AI workloads move directly onto devices, security risks are increasing. AI assistants now process sensitive data locally, which expands the attack surface and creates new challenges for organizations.

Daniel Bernard, chief business officer, CrowdStrike, commented:

"The rise of AI PCs is changing not just how work gets done, but where execution and risk live. As AI moves directly onto the endpoint, security has to operate where those interactions happen. With Intel as a lead AI PC innovation partner, our collaboration extends Falcon directly into that layer, so customers can protect sensitive data and close the gap between detection and containment."

By combining Falcon’s security capabilities with Intel Corporation’s (NASDAQ:INTC) AI hardware across GPUs, CPUs, and NPUs, the partnership enables real-time threat detection and data protection within AI workflows. It also provides better visibility across users, devices, and cloud activity.

The solutions include features to prevent data leaks, support system recovery, and stop advanced threats using hardware-level intelligence. As a result, this increases the security of Intel’s AI products, helping it potentially become the company of choice for other firms to work with.
