Cloudflare & CrowdStrike
Red Helix has close partnerships with Cloudflare and CrowdStrike which brings a formidable set of integrated security capabilities. Talk to us today, about a tailored solution for your organisation.
| Feature | Cloudflare's approach | CrowdStrike's complementary role |
|---|---|---|
| Zero Trust Network Access (ZTNA) | Cloudflare Access provides ZTNA as part of their SASE platform. It leverages Cloudflare's global network. The standout advantage is its simplicity and ease of deployment (often without needing a client). | CrowdStrike's real-time endpoint health data (ZTA score) is crucial for both platforms. It allows Zscaler and Cloudflare to enforce granular access policies. A device's access can be instantly revoked by the ZTNA platform if CrowdStrike flags it as a risk. |
| Secure Web Gateway (SWG) | Cloudflare SWG, uses Cloudflare's global DNS and web filtering capabilities to protect users from threats on the internet, including malicious sites and phishing attempts. | CrowdStrike's Falcon platform detects and responds to threats that may bypass network controls. It can identify malware and other threats on the endpoint itself, providing an essential final layer of defence against web-based attacks missed by an SWG. |
| Threat Intelligence & Visibility | Cloudflare's threat intelligence is vast, driven by its massive Content Delivery Network (CDN) and DNS infrastructure. It provides a unique global perspective on threats, from DDoS attacks to botnets. | CrowdStrike provides the critical endpoint context. By correlating network data from Zscaler or Cloudflare with its own rich endpoint telemetry, you can gain a full, end-to-end view of a security incident, identifying the root cause and the full scope of an attack. |
