The launch of the Charlotte AI AgentWorks Ecosystem collaboration enables partners such as Accenture to create AI agents that are finely tuned to provide specific security outcomes for customers, Kurtz tells CRN.
CrowdStrike is aiming to enable partners to accelerate their strategies around building security agents with a major new expansion to the Charlotte AI AgentWorks platform, CrowdStrike Co-Founder and CEO George Kurtz told CRN.
The announcement this week at RSAC 2026 includes a new collaboration around Charlotte AI AgentWorks, which is the company’s no-code platform for building, testing, deploying and orchestrating security agents that debuted in September.

Now, with the new Charlotte AI AgentWorks Ecosystem collaboration announced this week, partners such as Accenture will be enabled to create AI agents that are finely tuned to provide specific security outcomes for customers, Kurtz said during an interview with CRN at RSAC.
Looking ahead, “one of the things that we’re really excited about [is] the ability for our customers and partners to actually create their own security agents,” he said.
Based on feedback from partners and customers, it’s clear that “they want the ability to rapidly create their own security agents for a specific task,” Kurtz said.
At RSAC 2026 on Wednesday, CrowdStrike unveiled the Charlotte AI AgentWorks Ecosystem, featuring a number of major launch partners. In addition to Accenture, No. 1 on CRN’s Solution Provider 500, other major collaborators around the launch include Anthropic, OpenAI, AWS, Nvidia, Salesforce, Deloitte and Kroll.
While the collaboration is aimed at boosting the generation of secure agents using Charlotte AI AgentWorks, it’s also ultimately focused on enabling the creation of agentic security businesses around CrowdStrike’s Falcon platform, according to the company.
With Charlotte AI AgentWorks, “partners like Accenture will be able to create their own agents for their customers,” Kurtz said. “At the end of the day, I think the big thing from a security perspective is getting the right outcome.”
For Accenture and other partners, “they’re going to figure out what their customers want—what outcome they want—and then use technologies like Falcon and AgentWorks to be able to get that outcome for them,” he said.
Without a doubt, the Charlotte AI AgentWorks expansion announced by CrowdStrike this week is poised to help deliver “greater customization to the agentic SOC, helping clients build tailored agents they can trust,” said Rex Thexton, CTO at Accenture Cybersecurity, in a quote included in a news release from CrowdStrike.
The launch was among the numerous AI- and agentic-focused announcements from CrowdStrike this week at RSAC 2026 in San Francisco.
CrowdStrike’s announcements included general availability for its Falcon AI Detection and Response (AIDR) offering, AI agent discovery and shadow AI governance. The cybersecurity giant also launched its new Falcon Data Security offering, featuring AI-driven classification for sensitive data and protection of sensitive GenAI data, and updated Falcon Cloud Security to help with countering AI-driven cloud attacks.
CrowdStrike also debuted the next AI-enhanced generation of its MDR (managed detection and response) offering with the launch of Agentic MDR, as well as unveiling Flex for Services, which brings the vendor’s Falcon Flex subscription model to services from CrowdStrike and partners.
Additionally, the company announced that it will now support Microsoft Defender for Endpoint within Falcon Next-Gen SIEM, the vendor’s AI-powered SIEM (security information and event management) platform.
