October 2026 Edition. Every number here is derived from the raw labels under vendor table v2026-10.8, every buyer segment counted.

Standing

4 labels, too few to rank

A product needs 10 labels in a category before a share or quadrant is stated. CrowdStrike Shield was named 4 times in SSPM, where Wing Security led with 30%. The labels and the evidence are below, counted exactly.

What the models said for it

Verbatim evidence the judge attached to positive labels.

“Best if you already use CrowdStrike” Claude Haiku 4.5 · SSPM · paraphrase prompt · alternative

And against it

Verbatim evidence attached to negative labels. A warning on a product with few labels is a warning; on a product with many, it is one voice among them.

No model argued against it.

What carried it into the answer

The sites and pages cited by the answers that named CrowdStrike Shield. A fact about retrieval, not a lever on the model.

Citations exist only for the models that return a source list, five of the fourteen in this edition, so these counts come from 5 of the 5 answers that named CrowdStrike Shield and are not a share of its labels.
