Cybersecurity is most effective when partners work together. At CrowdStrike, we believe strong technology alliances are essential to helping customers reduce blind spots, extend protection across environments, and stop breaches faster. That belief is central to how we approach our ecosystem-and it's at the core of our partnership with F5.

In 1997, most people running web infrastructure were patching solutions together in real time. Traffic spikes took sites down. Servers got added manually when capacity ran out, which was usually too late. The question was never whether the web would grow. It was whether the infrastructure underneath it could keep up.

Multicloud, or hybrid if you prefer, has been the norm for years. That part of the story is settled. What is still very much in motion is how organizations distribute applications across those environments and why those shifts matter operationally.

Over the past year, chief information security officers (CISOs) have watched the rise of agentic browsing with equal parts curiosity and concern. Unlike traditional browsers, agentic browsers do not just load a webpage; they act on it.

Today's threat landscape is evolving at an unprecedented rate, fueled by advancements in artificial intelligence that enable attackers to create more sophisticated, automated threats than ever before. Malicious bots, advanced persistent threat (APT) groups, and highly targeted attacks are now a daily reality for organizations.

In 2025, several high‑profile cloud and Internet infrastructure incidents reminded teams across the globe that disruption is inevitable and often originates outside any single provider or organizational chart. When a major cloud region goes down or a global traffic platform misbehaves, dependent applications fail simultaneously and at scale, regardless of how many 9s are on the SLA.

While a majority of organizations (96%) are deploying AI models, most worry about AI model security, according to the latest F5 State of Application Strategy report. And rightly so because many traditional security tools do not adequately support or protect modern AI workloads.

AI security teams are being asked to answer a new class of questions, often after something has already gone wrong. Why did an AI system allow this response? What policy was applied? Was sensitive data exposed? And can we prove it didn't happen elsewhere?

Securing the AI data pipeline is not optional. That much is clear. What is far less obvious-and far more challenging-is how to secure it well.

As organizations scale AI initiatives from experimentation to production, one reality is becoming clear: AI success depends as much on data delivery as it does on models.

Every major shift in application architecture forces the network to adapt. This is not a new or even revolutionary idea. We've seen it before, repeatedly. And each time, the same pattern played out.

When it comes to broken object-level authorization (BOLA)-one of the OWASP API Security Top 10 vulnerabilities-shifting left is an incomplete strategy. BOLA is not a simple coding error, such as a typo; it is a fundamental failure in business logic.

In the rapid race toward digital transformation, many organizations have inadvertently constructed a "patchwork architecture." To meet the urgent demands of cloud migration and remote access, IT teams have historically reached for the nearest tool to solve the problem of the day, leading to an environment where infrastructure is a collection of specialized, disconnected modules.

The main challenge with deploying AI is that its primary ingredients-data, AI models, and infrastructure-are often distributed across several environments. Enterprise data accumulates all over the place, from edge devices and locations to the data center core, while processing power including GPUs and Tensor Processing Units (TPUs) are mostly found in the cloud.

In the modern enterprise, the "application" has transcended its role as a mere tool to become the business itself. From high-frequency trading platforms to global supply chain engines, apps provide mission-critical services that serve as the primary touchpoints for both revenue and reputation.

Applications are at the core of business. They power customer experiences, employee productivity, and revenue-generating digital services. At the same time, the architectures for delivering these applications often have not kept pace with how applications are built, deployed, and consumed today.

Not all AI guardrails work the same way. That difference is becoming harder to ignore. As organizations add enforcement at inference, meaning the moment a model processes a prompt and generates a response, two approaches are often conflated.

Modern applications are evolving quickly. AI-powered components embedded directly into the user experience complicate what used to be a predictable flow of web and API traffic.

In the 2023 movie M3GAN, a brilliant piece of artificial intelligence is brought to market with extraordinary speed and almost no meaningful ethical boundaries. Designed to learn, adapt, and protect, the system is optimized for performance and commercial success-not accountability. The result, of course, is catastrophic.

Most organizations don't struggle with AI because they lack models; models are proliferating in both number and type. They struggle because their infrastructure was never designed for the way AI moves data.

AI infrastructure teams are making one of the largest technology investments in their organization's history. Some already have GPU clusters in production. Others are still preparing to bring them online. In both cases, the challenge is the same. Once AI infrastructure is deployed, instability, inefficiency, and poor traffic control quickly translate into lost value and operational risk.

Fueled by modern application architectures and AI solutions, today's digital businesses are faced with constantly expanding API connectivity. Organizations likely interact with hundreds of APIs daily-and more are being added all the time.

In the age of AI, your data doesn't just sit. It replicates, migrates, gets mined, retrained, and served up across more zones, clouds, and services than your architecture ever planned for. And if you're still thinking of multicloud networking as 'pick a primary and fail over,' you're already behind.

In the late 1960s, the rock classic, 'The Weight' by The Band ('Take a load off Fanny .') told a simple story about burden: how responsibility gets passed along until someone quietly carries more than they should.

The technology industry is racing toward an AI‑driven future. AI adoption is accelerating, and AI is becoming a platform-based capability across the stack. Hybrid IT is here to stay, and multi-tenant architectures have become the norm. In this reality, SaaS now carries the weight of customer experience, compliance, and innovation.

As AI usage accelerates, data pipelines must scale even faster to prevent bottlenecks and maintain performance. Recent research from firms such as McKinsey & Company shows that the appetite for AI-ready data center capacity is expected to grow by approximately 33% per year through 2030. This means that even the best model architectures will be starved of data unless the delivery pipeline scales accordingly.

Last week, we disclosed a major security incident involving a highly sophisticated nation-state threat actor. As a CISO, I know what it is like to hear this kind of news from a partner. I understand how difficult and disruptive this has been for customers, and we truly apologize for-and take full ownership of-the incident.

In the third episode of the F5 Global CISO: For defenders by defenders, I was joined by Corey Ball, one of my favorite API hackers. Corey's been active in IT and cyber security for the past 15 years, and literally wrote the book on hacking APIs when he found that there really wasn't much in the way of collected knowledge on the topic, and this is when we first met.
