History

Historical Context

After the 1994 release of Netscape Navigator and its 1995 IPO, the secure HTTPS protocol and the NSFNET asset sale sparked the commercial Internet boom and a surge of ISP experimentation, including AT&T WorldNet. The ensuing dot-com bubble burst in 2001, paving the way for Web 2.0 services that today underpin CrowdStrike’s multi-billion-dollar growth.
