role in delivering the innovation and platform capabilities our customers need
to stop breaches.”
“I am thrilled to be joining CrowdStrike to lead the Indian and SAARC
business,” said Kartik Shahani, vice president of India and SAARC, CrowdStrike.
“I look forward to expanding our regional presence, helping existing and
prospective customers leverage the power of the CrowdStrike Falcon platform to

Shahani joins CrowdStrike at a time of significant investment in
regional operations, with the company opening a new, 52,000 square foot state-of-the-art
office in Pune earlier this year.
