Zscaler, Inc. (NASDAQ: ZS) today announced an extension to its relationship with Amazon Web Services (AWS), a preferred cloud provider. In addition, Zscaler announced innovations built on Zscaler's Zero Trust architecture and AWS to help enterprises securely accelerate their transition to the cloud. Working together, the companies will deliver customers a unified solution to consolidate and simplify cloud security operations while helping organizations advance their security architecture from ineffective legacy models to a modern Zero Trust approach designed for the cloud.
Today, enterprises are often left to purchase, implement, and manage dozens of disparate point products, which has resulted in operational complexity and higher overhead costs. As the cloud continues to mature, enterprises are looking for a holistic cloud-based platform with integrated services, including, Cloud Security Posture Management (CSPM), Cloud Infrastructure Entitlements Management (CIEM), Cloud Workload Protection Platforms (CWPP), Data Loss Protection (DLP), Configuration Management Database (CMDB), and Infrastructure as a Code (IaC) scanning, to protect their globally distributed workloads.
To help enterprises advance their deployment of Zero Trust to secure their cloud applications and improve the security of their 5G connections, Zscaler and AWS have extended their relationship to deliver simple, yet powerful, solutions built on AWS. These solutions are designed to help identify, prioritize, mitigate, and remediate cloud workload risks for the applications and the cloud infrastructure, while also extending Zero Trust to Private 5G connections. In cooperation with AWS, Zscaler's three innovations designed to advance cloud security and cloud connections include:
"Zscaler, in collaboration with AWS, provides an innovative and highly-scalable solution for securing cloud workloads," said Rui Cabeço, IT Service Group Manager & Global Outbound Connectivity Lead at Siemens. "We look forward to leveraging the powerful capabilities of Zscaler and the AWS Marketplace to drive business agility as we continue our cloud transformation."
"Many organizations struggle with the notion of Zero Trust for cloud security," said Punit Minocha, Executive Vice President, Business and Corporate Development at Zscaler. "Zscaler's latest innovations- our Posture Control solution and new cloud workload protection services-built on AWS as a preferred cloud provider, offer our joint customers simplified and efficient solutions to effectively remediate cloud workload risk, delivered via the Zscaler Zero Trust Exchange cloud security platform."
"Zscaler and AWS share a common vision to deliver the highest quality security solutions to our joint customers and help them navigate the latest cloud security requirements," said Chris Grusz, Director, ISV Partner and AWS Marketplace Business Development. "This expanded relationship will offer organizations across the world simple yet powerful solutions built on and tightly integrated with AWS security, observability and data protection services."
