Case Study: AstraZeneca achieves secure, frictionless global cloud collaboration and reduced risk with Zscaler

AstraZeneca - Customer Case Study

AstraZeneca, a global pharmaceutical company operating in 100+ countries with tens of thousands of employees, needed to enable fast, secure collaboration while protecting vast amounts of sensitive data in a highly regulated environment. Legacy VPN access was cumbersome for 20,000+ field users and rising shadow IT left IT without visibility into what cloud services and data were being used and shared.

AstraZeneca deployed Skyhigh Networks’ CASB (Skyhigh for Shadow IT and Skyhigh for Box) integrated with Zscaler to enforce DLP and governance across cloud services without VPNs or device agents. The solution provided granular visibility and control, extended on‑premises DLP to Box, accelerated secure user access and Box adoption, consolidated file sharing, reduced overall risk, and delivered audit-ready metrics that earned executive confidence.
