Zero Trust & Cloud Security
Secure, fast, Zero Trust Access for UK organisations
The cyber security perimeter has disappeared. In today’s hybrid and cloud-first world, traditional network defences can’t keep up with advanced threats.
That’s why Red Helix, a trusted UK cyber security and performance specialist, partners with Zscaler, the world’s most deployed Zero Trust cloud security platform.
Together, we help organisations protect users, applications, and data, without the complexity of legacy VPNs, appliances, or backhauled traffic. Unlike legacy firewalls or VPNs, Zscaler brings security to the edge of the cloud, where users and data live.
Why Zscaler Leads in Cloud Security
Zscaler is purpose-built for the cloud, securing users, workloads, and data without the limits of traditional network security. Zscaler’s Zero Trust Exchange cloud-native platform securely connects users, devices, and applications from any location. This approach significantly reduces the attack surface, prevents threats from spreading, and protects sensitive data.
By inspecting traffic inline across all ports and protocols, Zscaler uniquely delivers:
- Zero Trust access to applications with no network exposure, and no lateral movement.
- Cloud-native threat prevention through real-time inspection at scale to block malware, ransomware, and phishing.
- Inline DLP and context-aware controls that follow the user, not the network to ensure complete data protection.
- Secure, low-latency access to apps without the VPN bottleneck, creating fast, direct connections.

| Feature | Zscaler's Approach | CrowdStrike's Complementary Role |
|---|---|---|
| Zero Trust Network Access (ZTNA) | Zscaler Private Access (ZPA) is an established ZTNA solution that focuses on connecting users to private applications via their dedicated cloud security platform. | 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. |
