New integration empowers SOC teams to detect and contain unauthorized AI usage with real-time, unified visibility and automated response across the enterprise
RSAC 2025 – <a href="https://cts.businesswire.com/ct/CT?id=smartlink&amp;url=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.crowdstrike.com%2Fen-us%2F&amp;esheet=54246221&amp;newsitemid=20250430082038&amp;lan=en-US&amp;anchor=CrowdStrike&amp;index=1&amp;md5=84912a545d038b0f2a828e1a5d9cabb6">CrowdStrike</a> (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/CRWD#NASDAQ">CRWD</a>) and <a href="https://cts.businesswire.com/ct/CT?id=smartlink&amp;url=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.extrahop.com%2F&amp;esheet=54246221&amp;newsitemid=20250430082038&amp;lan=en-US&amp;anchor=ExtraHop&amp;index=2&amp;md5=a7d47e8909a33509774a7b80654c6afe">ExtraHop</a> today announced an expanded partnership to help enterprises detect and contain shadow AI risks. By ingesting market-leading network intelligence from ExtraHop into <a href="https://cts.businesswire.com/ct/CT?id=smartlink&amp;url=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.crowdstrike.com%2Fplatform%2Fnext-gen-siem%2F&amp;esheet=54246221&amp;newsitemid=20250430082038&amp;lan=en-US&amp;anchor=CrowdStrike+Falcon%26%23174%3B+Next-Gen+SIEM&amp;index=3&amp;md5=6cf568f9add27b953b7023c32a073545">CrowdStrike Falcon&#xAE; Next-Gen SIEM</a>, the new integration gives SOC teams real-time visibility into unauthorized AI service usage and the ability to automate response actions – protecting sensitive data without slowing innovation.
Shadow AI is rapidly becoming a critical risk for enterprises as employees use and adopt AI tools outside the visibility of IT and security teams. These tools frequently bypass established security controls, creating blind spots that adversaries can exploit to access sensitive data or introduce misconfigurations that lead to breaches.
To close this gap, CrowdStrike and ExtraHop are giving SOC teams unified visibility and control over AI service usage across endpoints, networks, cloud environments, and on-premises infrastructure. By integrating deep network telemetry from ExtraHop with first- and third-party data from Falcon Next-Gen SIEM and automated remediation from <a href="https://cts.businesswire.com/ct/CT?id=smartlink&amp;url=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.crowdstrike.com%2Fplatform%2Fnext-gen-siem%2Ffalcon-fusion%2F&amp;esheet=54246221&amp;newsitemid=20250430082038&amp;lan=en-US&amp;anchor=Falcon+Fusion+SOAR&amp;index=4&amp;md5=81d54ae05f4fd6ce13dba42810cbb75c">Falcon Fusion SOAR</a>, security teams can identify unauthorized AI models and agents, visualize usage patterns, and automate containment actions to reduce the risk of sensitive data exposure.
"Shadow AI has quickly emerged as a major security blind spot, often going undetected by legacy tools and exposing sensitive data," said Daniel Bernard, chief business officer, CrowdStrike. "Together with ExtraHop, we're delivering AI-native security and real-time network intelligence that empowers security teams to detect, stop and control unauthorized AI. This integration helps organizations embrace AI innovation without losing visibility, control or protection of sensitive data."
"From the moment commercial AI services began to gain traction, ExtraHop recognized the vital role of network telemetry in providing crucial visibility into their burgeoning use across the enterprise," said Kanaiya Vasani, chief product officer, ExtraHop. "Our deepening partnership with CrowdStrike allows us to build on this foresight, leveraging that visibility to deliver unparalleled insight into the broad spectrum of AI services in use today. Together, we offer organizations a streamlined solution for identifying and mitigating potential security risks from increasing use of AI tools across their environments."

Dell Technologies Inc (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/DELL#NYSE">DELL</a>) shares are moving lower Wednesday in sympathy with Super Micro Computer Inc (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/SMCI#NASDAQ">SMCI</a>), which reported preliminary results late Tuesday. Here&#8217;s what <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/earnings/25/04/45086254/super-micro-computer-stock-is-tanking-after-hours-whats-fueling-the-sell-off">you need to know</a>.
What Happened: After the market close on Tuesday, Super Micro preannounced expectations for the third quarter due to delayed customer platform decisions that moved sales into the fourth quarter.
The company reported soft preliminary results that sent shares tumbling, including expectations for third-quarter revenue of $4.5 billion to $4.6 billion, down from prior guidance of $5 billion to $6 billion. Super Micro also said it expects to report third-quarter adjusted earnings in the range of 29 cents to 31 cents per share, down from prior guidance of 46 cents to 62 cents per share.
Super Micro also expects gross margin for the third quarter to be 220 basis points lower than the second quarter, primarily due to "higher inventory reserves resulting from older generation products and expedited costs to enable time-to-market for new products."

Why It Matters For DELL: Dell is one of Super Micro&#8217;s main competitors, specifically in the <a href="http://benzinga.com/topic/ai">AI</a> space. Both companies offer high-performance server solutions used in enterprise, cloud and AI workloads. 
Dell and Super Micro are key NVIDIA Corp (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/NVDA#NASDAQ">NVDA</a>) partners, delivering GPU systems for generative AI and machine learning. Both companies take Nvidia's chips, package them into servers and then sell them to AI hyperscalers.
Super Micro shares were last down approximately 19%, dragging Dell and Nvidia down with it. Nvidia shares fell about 2% when Super Micro reported preliminary results. Dell shares fell more than 4% on the news and have continued to move lower Wednesday morning.
Dell is due to report financial results <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/calendars/earnings">for the first quarter</a> sometime next month. Analysts currently expect the company to report earnings of $1.67 per share and revenue of $23.11 billion, according to estimates from <a href="http://pro.benzinga.com">Benzinga Pro</a>. In the company&#8217;s prior two quarters, Dell beat earnings estimates, but fell short on revenue. 
DELL Price Action: <a href="http://benzinga.com/quote/dell">Dell shares</a> were down 6.27% at $87.90 at the time of publication Wednesday, according to <a href="http://pro.benzinga.com">Benzinga Pro</a>.

Integrated solution enables Flywire to unlock new payment flows from India to academic destinations worldwide
Flywire further expands footprint in India, capitalizes on the billions of dollars of payment volume from education loans
&nbsp;<a href="https://www.globenewswire.com/Tracker?data=9Pd_EqTdmjSTaEHfDZSfMtsln0U0GCWAIpcMXkv3b8lJpv4PJN-7UUEfEymhYePyquu_DQ4FnYFqO33ELkZt5NnHLrpamqq0gpew7ABjiDM=">Flywire Corporation</a> (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/FLYW#NASDAQ">FLYW</a>) (Flywire), a global payments and enablement and software company, today announced its strategic partnership with<a href="https://www.globenewswire.com/Tracker?data=QJYz4TIXv3PAcQItUyHBnbDbjWZPvBr5iTsFxWXbiVy3wocHZE5LaSPzVccZc6W-XOfZamzSfTZwEhStW5Vjjn0G2dtgF-_wrpL0KKwb3_k="> Avanse Financial Services</a>, India's second-largest education-focused non-banking financial company (NBFC). The collaboration simplifies the process of disbursing education loan payments for Indian students pursuing education opportunities abroad. The collaboration helps Flywire capitalize on tuition loan disbursements initiated by Avanse in Indian Rupees (INR) and builds on Flywire's existing banking and loan integrations in India. The solution is available immediately and supports payment flows from India to academic destinations worldwide.
Through this integration, Flywire streamlines the entire payments experience for students who opt to get educational loans from Avanse. After loan approval, students process payments via Flywire entirely in Indian rupees, with the ability to monitor transactions until funds reach their university. Flywire ensures transparency over all loan disbursements, facilitates efficient refunds, and automates the complex Tax Collected at Source (TCS) calculations—ultimately saving both students and providers valuable time and resources while ensuring adherence to relevant tax guidelines.
"We're excited to collaborate with Avanse to enhance the process of student loan disbursements from India," commented Mina Fakhouri, SVP, APAC &amp; Global Agents at Flywire. "The combination of Avanse's presence in India and Flywire's innovative payment technology addresses a crucial market gap for both students and lending institutions. India remains an important market for Flywire, and we're excited to work together to deliver value to our partners, payers, educational institutions and beyond."
Additional benefits of the integration between Flywire and Avanse are expected to include:
<ul>
<li>Competitive foreign exchange conversion rates for students</li>
<li>Providing transparent payment tracking for students, schools and financial institutions</li>
<li>Enhancing compliance with international banking regulations</li>
<li>Managing TCS calculations for payments</li>
<li>Simplifying the documentation requirements for both students and institutions &nbsp;</li>
