SentinelOne Expands Partner Ecosystem with Cloudflare and Zscaler
SentinelOne has announced that new integrations with Cloudflare and Zscaler are now available through the SentinelOne Singularity marketplace. The expanding ecosystem powered by SentinelOne Singularity XDR offers a variety of joint solutions providing unified visibility across the entire enterprise and cloud attack surface with protection, automation, and enforcement at every control point.
“By feeding SentinelOne’s endpoint and cloud data into a wide variety of security tools, each with capabilities of their own, the Singularity XDR platform streamlines cybersecurity compliance,” said Ruby Sharma, Head of SentinelOne Technology Partner Ecosystem. “Our autonomous protection, detection, and response provide critical data and automation for zero trust architectures and additional cybersecurity use cases. We’re committed to innovating with ecosystem partners to benefit our mutual customers.”
“SentinelOne, Cloudflare, and Zscaler are three of our preferred technology partners,” added John McLeod, CISO, NOV. “As a Fortune 500 organization, these partners facilitate our zero-trust journey to ensure our devices and connections are secure across a highly mobile and dynamic global organization.”
Cloudflare and Zscaler enhance the Singularity ecosystem’s zero trust capabilities:
- Cloudflare’s edge capabilities combined with SentinelOne’s AI-powered endpoint protection, detection, and response enables customers to make informed conditional access decisions and easily enforce zero trust policies. Joint customers can use Singularity XDR in their network access policies to ensure only secure and trusted devices gain access.
- Zscaler combines with Singularity XDR to simplify security for hybrid work with device posture driven conditional access built around zero trust principles. Zscaler automatically verifies devices are protected by SentinelOne before granting access to a sensitive corporate resource, strengthening end-to-end security for organizations.
“In a world where hybrid work is becoming more common, removing the silos of security solutions is key for implementing zero-trust from endpoint to apps,” says Amit Raikar, Vice President, Technology Alliances and Business Development at Zscaler. “Our integration with SentinelOne not only empowers work from anywhere with zero trust enforcement but also demonstrates that stronger security does not need to be at the cost of user experience.”
“The traditional network perimeter does not exist anymore,” said Alex Dyner, Senior Vice President, Special Projects at Cloudflare. “The only way to secure today’s work-from-anywhere economy is to secure each employee, protecting their individual devices, networks, and access to business-critical applications. We are excited to partner with SentinelOne to ensure that only healthy and managed devices get access to the most business-critical applications protected by Cloudflare.”
To achieve zero trust, every edge of the network must be secured. SentinelOne’s zero trust integrations dynamically validate device health and security posture prior to connecting to corporate networks and sensitive data.
The SentinelOne Singularity ecosystem is expanding rapidly with joint solutions also available for sandboxing, threat intelligence, SIEM, CASB, and workflow automation. Integrations are available with no-code automation, providing collaborative defense-in-depth, streamlined operations and workflows, and unified cross-system response capabilities.

Evanssion Partners With HackerOne to Bring Human-Powered Security to the Middle East
Evanssion has announced its partnership with HackerOne to increase the adoption of the bug bounty, Pentest, and vulnerability disclosure programs across Middle Eastern enterprises. Customers can now leverage human ingenuity to pinpoint the most critical security flaws across their attack surfaces to get ahead of cybercriminals. A recent report highlights an unprecedented surge in cyberattacks across the Middle East, with a 17% increase in 2023, especially targeting critical sectors like finance, energy, and government.
As the region experiences rapid digital transformation, organizations are becoming prime targets for ransomware attacks and sensitive data breaches. Human-powered security platforms, such as HackerOne, leverage the skills of ethical hackers worldwide to offer proactive vulnerability detection that is 35% more cost-effective compared to traditional vulnerability management methods.
HackerOne is a leading provider of human-powered security solutions, with 61% of customers identifying more vulnerabilities when compared with traditional vendors. 22.75% of valid vulnerabilities surfaced in a bug bounty are high or critical, compared to less than 1% found by automated scanners, and 18% of its Pentest findings rated as high or critical severity—nearly double the industry average, demonstrating HackerOne’s exceptional ability to identify and address serious security risks.
“At Evanssion, we remain focused on enabling enterprises to enhance their cybersecurity strategies, and our partnership with HackerOne is both strategic and timely. With our deep regional expertise paired with HackerOne’s global leadership in Human-Powered Security, we are excited to be able to provide substantial value to our partners and customers in the Middle East,” said Navneeth Ramanan, COO of Evanssion.

The collaboration aims to enhance data security across the region by offering SearchInform’s Data Loss Prevention (DLP) solutions to Green Circle’s customers.
The partnership will empower Green Circle to deliver comprehensive protection against internal threats, such as data breaches and unauthorized access. SearchInform’s DLP solutions are specifically designed to address the unique security challenges faced by organizations in the region.
“SearchInform’s solution ensures protection against corporate fraud attempts, and intentional or accidental data leaks, along with monitoring employee activities, revealing idleness during work hours, cooperating with competitors, corporate equipment theft, and much more. Our clients have been feeling the need for such a comprehensive solution for a while. Now we are providing it. Also, with this solution integrated into our managed services, customers can achieve full compliance with key regulatory frameworks in the KSA, including the National Cybersecurity Authority’s Cybersecurity Controls, the Data Governance Maturity Guideline from the Communications, Space & Technology Commission, and the Personal Data Protection Law (PDPL) issued by the Saudi Data & Artificial Intelligence Authority (SDAIA),” said Mohammad Alkhudari, Green Circle CEO.
To cater to the specific needs of the Saudi market, SearchInform has enhanced its technology with additional security policies tailored for Saudi Arabia. These policies cover sensitive personal information, including IBAN numbers and Saudi ID details, as well as corporate infrastructure data. This ensures a more thorough analysis and detection of potential risks and suspicious activities.
“The Saudi market is a very fast-growing market in terms of data protection. We are confident that over the next year or two, this partnership will lead to significant business growth. As internal threats are on the rise, it is critical for companies to strengthen their defences. Our collaboration with Green Circle marks an important milestone in elevating the overall data protection standards of KSA organizations,” commented Sergey Ozhegov, SearchInform CEO.
Both companies believe that the comprehensive DLP solution, combined with Green Circle’s managed security services, will be a valuable asset for Saudi Arabian customers.
