VIAVI Announces New Integration with CrowdStrike Falcon® Next-Gen SIEM

CHANDLER, Ariz., Sept. 10, 2025 /PRNewswire/ -- VIAVI Solutions Inc. (VIAVI) (NASDAQ: VIAV) today announced a partnership with CrowdStrike to integrate the VIAVI Observer network observability platform with CrowdStrike Falcon® Next-Gen SIEM. VIAVI brings end-user experience insights with network and service performance intelligence into Falcon Next-Gen SIEM, providing joint customers with deeper visibility across their security and IT operations.

According to VIAVI's 2025/2026 State of the Network Study, while 79% of organizations are transitioning from siloed network and security operations to converged NetSecOps, only 27% have completed the process. The partnership between VIAVI and CrowdStrike empowers customers to accelerate their NetSecOps journey by combining VIAVI's network performance intelligence with CrowdStrike's industry-leading threat intelligence and AI-driven automation. By collecting and retaining high-fidelity forensic data, the Observer platform provides additional insights into how security events impact critical business services, giving customers greater visibility into cybersecurity threats within their performance management workflows.

"As data volumes increase, many vendors have adopted a metadata-based approach to network and security operations convergence, or NetSecOps. Beyond extensive use of metadata, VIAVI also provides high-fidelity forensic data with long-term packet capture and enriched flows," said Chris Labac, Vice President and General Manager, Network Performance Management and Threat Solutions, VIAVI. "This approach gives a deeper and more accurate understanding of network events compared to what can be achieved with metadata alone."

"Falcon Next-Gen SIEM is the engine of the modern SOC, unifying customers' broader security ecosystem with CrowdStrike's first-party data, native threat intelligence, and AI-powered threat detection and response," said Michael Rogers, Vice President, Global Alliances, CrowdStrike. "With our announcement to acquire real-time data pipeline platform Onum, we will supercharge Falcon Next-Gen SIEM, enriching, filtering, and starting detection before data even enters Falcon, reducing costs while boosting performance. By integrating the VIAVI Observer platform with Falcon Next-Gen SIEM, we're helping organizations unify NetOps and SecOps – delivering true convergence, faster detection and response, and the visibility they need to operate with speed, resilience, and confidence."

The Observer platform integration with Falcon Next-Gen SIEM will be demonstrated at CrowdStrike's flagship conference Fal.Con in the U.S. and Europe, along with other events throughout the year.
