Case Study: CrowdStrike Achieves Zero-Trust SaaS Security Visibility with Adaptive Shield

A Holistic Solution to Gain Control over Your SaaS Security, Users and Devices

CrowdStrike, a global cybersecurity leader, faced the challenge of securing its vast SaaS application landscape against threats stemming from user devices and misconfigurations. These elusive threats could persist even with strong authentication and encryption, creating a complex vulnerability that required a holistic solution beyond its own endpoint protection expertise. To address this, CrowdStrike partnered with vendor Adaptive Shield and its SaaS Security Posture Management (SSPM) solution.

The implemented solution integrated Adaptive Shield's SSPM with CrowdStrike's endpoint telemetry and Zero Trust Assessment scoring. This provided a consolidated view that correlates device posture with specific SaaS users and their application privileges. The results gave security teams unprecedented visibility to monitor high-risk devices, enforce soft policy controls, and easily manage risks. This partnership empowered CrowdStrike to implement a complete end-to-end Zero Trust strategy, significantly reducing the company's overall risk of a breach.
