Safety Beyond the Perimeter: How CrowdStrike and Zscaler Keep Workforces Secure Anywhere

At a Glance: 

• The modern-day work environment has changed, with employees spread out everywhere due to remote and hybrid work arrangements. 

• This has rendered the old security perimeter obsolete, making it harder to stop cyber attacks. 

• Zscaler and CrowdStrike have combined for a “better together” approach that keeps teams secure no matter their location or what devices they use. 

 

The way we work has changed forever. With teams spread out everywhere, the old security perimeter is gone, making it harder for companies to defend against cyber attacks. 

That’s why industry leaders CrowdStrike and Zscaler have combined for a “better together” approach that keeps teams secure no matter their location or what devices they use. 

On their own, each tool is powerful. But integrated, they deliver robust enforcement of zero trust access from endpoint to application. 

With CrowdStrike and Zscaler, you get enhanced risk management, shortened response times, and an end-to-end security solution that protects your organization from evolving threats. Also, if a threat is detected, devices can be quarantined before malware spreads — keeping your business safe and your team productive. 

Let’s dive deeper into the pairing of these two security leaders. 

 

The Strength of Collaboration 

Before we delve into how CrowdStrike and Zscaler work better together, we must first explain who they are individually. 

CrowdStrike has redefined modern security with the world’s most advanced cloud-native platform for protecting critical areas of enterprise risk – endpoints and cloud workloads, identity, and data. Zscaler, meanwhile, uses a Zero Trust Exchange platform to protect thousands of customers from cyber attacks and data loss by securely connecting users, devices, and applications in any location. 

So how do they work better together? 

Well, by integrating Zscaler’s industry-leading zero trust security and AI-powered risk management with CrowdStrike’s advanced endpoint protection, threat intelligence, and next-generation SIEM capabilities, the combined solution streamlines the entire risk management, detection, and response lifecycle. This effectively closes the loop between IT security and security operations. 

Together, CrowdStrike and Zscaler enable access to applications and the internet with maximally adaptive access control, without hindering user productivity. 

 

The Impact 

Now that we’ve covered how Zscaler and CrowdStrike work better together to keep your organization safe from cyber threats, we want to give you a few more details about what this integration can do for you. 

Some key benefits of pairing CrowdStrike and Zscaler include: 

• Context Rich Adaptive Access Policies: Improve your endpoint-to-application security posture by enforcing zero trust policies that adapt dynamically to changing conditions. 

• Holistic Visibility into the Cyber Risk Landscape: Gain an accurate view of risk exposure across the four stages of attack and leverage consolidated risk score across multiple sources for a complete understanding of cyber risk. 

• Rapid Detection and Coordinated Response: Speed up mean time to detect (MTTD) and mean time to respond (MTTR) with coordinated response and policy enforcement actions that bridge gaps between IT security and security operations. 

• Device Quarantining: The ability to trigger device quarantining helps prevent malware from propagating after a user accesses malicious files.
