Zscaler and CrowdStrike expand partnership for AI-driven security

Zscaler Inc. (NASDAQ: ZS) announced an expanded partnership with CrowdStrike (NASDAQ: CRWD) through Red Canary, a Zscaler company, to deliver enhanced cybersecurity protection across endpoints, users, and workloads.

The partnership integrates the Zscaler Zero Trust Exchange platform, CrowdStrike's Falcon platform, and Red Canary's managed detection and response services. The collaboration aims to help customers migrate from legacy endpoint detection and response tools to CrowdStrike's cloud-native platform.

Under the agreement, CrowdStrike's Falcon platform serves as a preferred partner in Red Canary's security operations ecosystem. The joint solution combines endpoint context from CrowdStrike with user context from Zscaler's platform to improve threat detection and response capabilities.

"By expanding our partnership with CrowdStrike through Red Canary, we are accelerating security operations with advanced AI-powered automation," said Raj Judge, board member and executive vice president of corporate strategy at Zscaler.

Daniel Bernard, chief business officer at CrowdStrike, stated that organizations are moving away from legacy endpoint security products toward platform-based solutions. "Together, we're helping customers standardize their security architectures, stopping breaches with real-time threat detection," he said.

The partnership builds on a multi-year relationship between Zscaler and CrowdStrike. Red Canary's platform utilizes artificial intelligence to provide managed detection and response services, while CrowdStrike's Falcon platform offers cloud-native endpoint protection.

The companies stated the integrated solution replaces multiple legacy security products with a unified architecture that features automated workflows and responses across endpoint, identity, and network security layers.
