Kroll Launches APEX Tool for Measurable AI Investment Outcomes
Kroll has introduced the Kroll AI Automation Prioritization EXecution (APEX) tool, designed to help organizations make data-driven decisions about their investments in artificial intelligence and automation. Built on the CrowdStrike Falcon platform, APEX enables companies to quantify operational effort, cost, and business value associated with cyber use cases before implementation begins. With global AI spending expected to reach $2.59 trillion in 2026—a 47% increase from the previous year—many organizations struggle to measure ROI effectively. Kroll APEX addresses this challenge by providing a structured framework that identifies and prioritizes opportunities, estimates returns, and aligns security strategy with business objectives. The tool is part of an ongoing collaboration between Kroll and CrowdStrike, leveraging both companies' expertise in AI-native cybersecurity platforms and advisory services to help clients optimize their cyber investments. APEX aims to shift the focus from whether to invest in AI to where it can deliver the most value.
