Case Study: AstraZeneca achieves secure, compliant, and frictionless cloud collaboration for 20,000+ employees with Skyhigh Networks

AstraZeneca - Customer Case Study

AstraZeneca is a global pharmaceutical company operating in over 100 countries with tens of thousands of employees and large volumes of sensitive data. In a highly regulated environment, the company faced cumbersome VPN access for 20,000+ users, rising shadow IT, and a need for centralized visibility and control over cloud collaboration without slowing productivity.

AstraZeneca deployed Skyhigh Networks’ CASB, integrated with Zscaler, to remove VPN friction, extend on‑premises DLP to Box, and monitor or block high‑risk cloud services while providing granular visibility into data usage and sharing. The move increased secure Box adoption, consolidated file-sharing, sped application onboarding, lowered overall risk and compliance gaps, and gave executives actionable metrics to govern cloud usage.
