Cloudbrink integrates identity management services with Crowdstrike in SASE platform

Cloudbrink, based in Sunnyvale, California, launched new identity management services integrated with CrowdStrike for its Personal Secure Access Service Edge (SASE) platform on July 30, 2025. This integration enables consolidated management of user identities and device authentication through a single console, offering a unified policy engine. The update aims to simplify operations, lower costs, and reduce error rates by decreasing reliance on standalone (SA) identity providers and minimizing security incidents.

Prakash Mana, CEO of Cloudbrink, stated, “Adding identity management and CrowdStrike integration provides critical authentication and authorization of both users and devices in the true spirit of zero-trust security.” This solution addresses the complexities that arise from managing hybrid workforces, third-party users, and cloud services, allowing businesses to streamline identity services within the same platform.

The Cloudbrink identity management services suite includes features such as Security Assertion Markup Language (SAML) integration for standard identity providers, System for Cross-domain Identity Management (SCIM) support for user-group mapping synchronization, and local user collections for custom group management. Additionally, the service offers device authentication capabilities, which cater to various use cases, including machine-to-machine interactions.

The development of these services occurred in collaboration with WITHX, Cloudbrink's partner in South Korea, to meet local demand for integrated identity capabilities. KiHwan Lee from WITHX noted growing interest from clients across Asia in managing external users on their Zero Trust Network Access (Zero-Trust Network Access (ZTNA)) solutions.

Furthermore, the integration with CrowdStrike enables users to read Zero-Trust Scores from the Falcon platform, facilitating automatic compliance checks and enhanced control over enterprise application access. This partnership combines endpoint security and access authentication, offering a holistic security solution within the same platform.
