CrowdStrike and Cloudflare Expand Zero Trust from Devices and Identities to Applications

CrowdStrike's collaboration with Cloudflare enhances their Zero Trust security framework, providing comprehensive protection for distributed workforces by integrating Cloudflare's secure global network with CrowdStrike Falcon's enriched telemetry. This partnership allows organizations to implement conditional access policies based on device health and compliance checks while leveraging Cloudflare's Zero Trust Network Access (ZTNA) and Secure Web Gateway (SWG) for secure application and network access. The integration aims to mitigate risks from compromised devices, prevent lateral movement, and stop breaches by combining insights from both platforms through the CrowdXDR Alliance. Additionally, CrowdStrike's involvement in the Critical Infrastructure Defense Project alongside Cloudflare and Ping Identity seeks to bolster U.S. cybersecurity for critical infrastructure, offering free cyber protections to hospitals, and water and power utilities.
