NVIDIA and CrowdStrike unveil SafeMind agentic cyber defense on Nemotron

1 Sep 2026: NVIDIA’s blog says Jensen Huang and CrowdStrike’s George Kurtz announced SafeMind at Fal.Con 2026 — an agentic cybersecurity system built with Nemotron open models, plus Falcon IQ. Company claims and CrowdStrike’s internal eval numbers stay theirs.

1 Sep 2026: NVIDIA Blog “NVIDIA and CrowdStrike Strengthen Agentic Cybersecurity Frontier” (Brian Caulfield) covers Fal.Con 2026 in Las Vegas. Jensen Huang and CrowdStrike CEO George Kurtz announce CrowdStrike SafeMind, developed by the CrowdStrike Cyber Superintelligence Lab. That dated NVIDIA blog is the filing event.

SafeMind, on NVIDIA’s account: defensive models built on NVIDIA Nemotron open models, post-trained with CrowdStrike’s cyber experience and threat data, paired with CrowdStrike’s proprietary cybersecurity harnesses as an agentic stack. The result ships natively in the CrowdStrike Falcon platform. NVIDIA says Nemotron 3 Ultra orchestrates the defensive agent harness; a fine-tuned Nemotron 3 Super powers a rule-generation sub-agent.

CrowdStrike internal evaluations, as reported by NVIDIA: the Blue Solano model based on Nemotron 3 Super delivered higher accuracy than leading frontier models at 99% lower cost. That is CrowdStrike’s eval claim — not an independent benchmark, and not a desk-measured accuracy number.

NVIDIA describes testing SafeMind in a high-fidelity cyber agent environment simulating NVIDIA’s network: red-team agents (Recon, Assault, Compromise) versus blue-team defenders in a continuous coevolution loop. CrowdStrike built a digital twin of NVIDIA’s accelerated computing infrastructure for the test, NVIDIA says.

Also announced on the same post: CrowdStrike Falcon IQ, to operationalize Project QuiltWorks via agentic workload automation — more than 50 agents, per NVIDIA’s writeup — inside Charlotte AI AgentWorks; plus an expanded CrowdStrike Guardian AI safety solution. NVIDIA says Nemotron helps power the agentic engine for Falcon IQ.

Figures on the post attributed to CrowdStrike: AI-enabled attacks up 89% in the past year, and the fastest eCrime breakout time at 27 seconds. Those are CrowdStrike’s figures — not NVIDIA’s measurement.

NVIDIA’s phrasing on CrowdStrike’s installed base: thousands of customer organizations generating trillions of daily security events. This filing does not invent GA pricing, a customer-count beyond that phrasing, or independent accuracy numbers. Distinct from the already-filed NVIDIA CUDA Rust, Skild S1, robotaxi-stack, and d-Matrix NVLink Fusion stories.

A dated NVIDIA primary puts a named CrowdStrike×Nemotron agentic defense stack on the record at Fal.Con — useful wire on open-model post-training for cyber defense, with vendor eval claims clearly labeled.
