New integrated products for cloud data control

Zscaler, Inc. (NASDAQ: ZS), a leader in cloud security, announced the integration of its product portfolio with ServiceNow, a leading digital workflow provider. The product portfolio of the two companies provides an expanded overview of data flow, access control, and data security to optimize cloud data protection and the ability to quickly respond to security incidents. Through these enhancements, you can take full advantage of the zero-trust architecture, because customers can fully control sensitive cloud-based data and benefit from rapid detection and response to attacks.

The combined product builds on Zscaler’s leading cloud security threat intelligence and accelerates the cloud-first company’s workflow for detecting and responding to security incidents. This integration simplifies the operations of the security team by providing visibility into the data flow from a single console. This eliminates the need to switch between management tools from different products that are not connected to each other.

Through integration with Zscaler Data Protection, customers can improve data protection and compliance on the ServiceNow Now platform. Through Zscaler control authentication, you can easily prevent remote and unmanaged devices from accessing the ServiceNow platform and data. Devices can only access ServiceNow through Zscaler, which can implement security policies and access control for sensitive data.

“The migration of applications and data to the cloud is driving the transformation of the network,” said Amit Sinha, President, Chief Technology Officer and Board Member of Zscaler“At the same time, companies are migrating to a mixed workforce, which makes working anywhere the norm. However, this requires a new security approach based on zero trust. Zscaler ensures that only authenticated users and security devices can Company policies access ServiceNow without putting them on the network. By sharing threat intelligence and using context-based access control, both companies can reduce business risk, simplify compliance, and improve the user experience of working anytime, anywhere.”

By combining these features, joint customers can improve data protection and compliance while simplifying incident response:

Restore data protection and compliance

Organizations can improve data transparency and prevent data leakage by scanning for sensitive data and violations of designated ServiceNow instances. This makes it easy to see how the data is used and who is visiting.

Work safely anytime, anywhere

Prevent risky, unmanaged, or BYOD devices from accessing the ServiceNow platform and the sensitive data it contains. Only equipment with safety management can work safely anywhere.

Optimized incident response

Adding Zscaler threat intelligence to the incident response workflow in the ServiceNow Security Incident Response Security Orchestration, Automation and Response (SOAR) solution enables IT managers to respond more quickly to new threats and better understand incidents. In addition, ServiceNow can automatically add new malicious domains and URLs in Zscaler Internet Access to immediately curb threats.

“In the process of rapid digitization of modern companies, new technologies and data growth have made data protection and security an issue at the board level,” said Pablo Stern, Senior Vice President of IT Workflow Products at ServiceNow“ServiceNow’s workflow creates a company-wide structure that helps ensure the reliability and agility of the company’s digital environment. Working with Zscaler has expanded our workflow and helped customers investigate and mitigate potential impacts on business operations and branding. Security issues.”
