CrowdStrike and Zscaler Expand Partnership for Enhanced AI-Powered Cybersecurity

Zscaler and CrowdStrike (CRWD) have expanded their partnership to enhance AI-driven security operations. The integration of Zscaler's Zero Trust Exchange platform, CrowdStrike's Falcon platform, and Red Canary's agentic-AI driven security operations platform aims to improve protection across endpoints, users, and workloads. The partnership aims to help customers migrate from legacy endpoint detection and response tools to CrowdStrike's cloud-native platform.

Zscaler, Inc. and CrowdStrike have expanded their strategic partnership to bolster AI-driven security operations. The collaboration integrates Zscaler's Zero Trust Exchange platform, CrowdStrike's Falcon platform, and Red Canary's agentic-AI driven security operations platform, aiming to improve protection across endpoints, users, and workloads. The partnership seeks to help customers transition from legacy endpoint detection and response tools to CrowdStrike's cloud-native platform [1].

The expanded partnership involves delivering a seamless path for customers migrating from legacy endpoint products to the Falcon platform. By integrating these advanced technologies, customers gain a multi-layered defense against threats, enriched user and endpoint context, and lightning-fast responses to neutralize threats [1, 2].

Red Canary's agentic-AI driven managed detection and response (MDR) service leverages deep endpoint context from CrowdStrike’s Falcon platform and will be enhanced by the combined power of rich user context from the Zscaler Zero Trust Exchange platform, improving threat detection accuracy and response time [1].

Organizations can modernize their security by replacing multiple legacy point products with a cloud-native architecture that features AI-powered detection, integrates with Zscaler, and is delivered through Red Canary’s security operations platform. This unified solution provides enhanced protection through automated workflows and integrated responses across endpoint, identity, and network [1].

Raj Judge, Board Member and EVP of Corporate Strategy at Zscaler, stated, "Zscaler and CrowdStrike share a vision to enable secure digital transformation with uncompromising protection across every layer of the enterprise. By expanding our partnership with CrowdStrike through Red Canary, we are accelerating security operations with advanced AI-powered automation, best-of-breed technologies, and a shared commitment to putting our customers first" [1].

Daniel Bernard, Chief Business Officer at CrowdStrike, added, "Organizations are moving away from legacy, point product endpoint vendors in search of platform outcomes and elite protection. By expanding our partnership with Red Canary and Zscaler, we’re delivering world-class security operations powered by the Falcon platform, Red Canary’s agentic-AI managed endpoint expertise, and Zscaler’s cloud-native zero trust capabilities. Together, we’re helping customers standardize their security architectures, stopping breaches with real-time threat detection, lightning-fast response, and the confidence that comes with the AI-native Falcon platform" [1].

Brian Beyer, Co-founder and President of Red Canary, a Zscaler Company, noted, "We’re fundamentally transforming the security operations landscape by bringing together three undisputed leaders in cybersecurity that raises the bar for security outcomes. Our customers are experiencing dramatic improvements in threat detection accuracy, response times, and operational efficiency – proving that when you bring together the best technologies and expertise, you deliver exceptional outcomes" [1].
