Cimcor Announces New Zscaler™ Integrations to Advance Zero Trust Security

Cimcor's CimTrak Integrity Suite Now Integrates with Zscaler's Zero Trust Exchange™ to Deliver Integrity-Based Configuration Management and Change Control Solution

Merrillville, IN— Today, Cimcor Inc., a leader in system integrity monitoring and compliance solutions, announced strategic integrations between its CimTrak Integrity Suite and Zscaler's Zero Trust Exchange™ platform. These integrations combine CimTrak's real-time integrity monitoring capabilities with Zscaler's cloud security solutions to empower organizations to automate their response to security events and compliance violations using policy-driven controls. This combined approach instantly triggers numerous Zscaler security responses, all designed to isolate compromised systems, restrict unauthorized access, and ensure continuous compliance—enhancing security posture while eliminating manual intervention.

"Integrity is one of the key principles of zero trust. However, until these integrations, combining zero trust with integrity controls was difficult to achieve or impossible," said Robert E. Johnson, III, President and CEO of Cimcor. “Our integrations with Zscaler enable security teams to dynamically enforce zero trust rules based on Integrity. This is accomplished by immediately detecting unauthorized changes, automatically enforcing access policies, and maintaining continuous compliance – greatly reducing risk while saving countless hours of manual monitoring.”

“Zscaler enables organizations to enforce zero trust at scale. Our integrations with Cimcor enhance this by adding real-time integrity monitoring to dynamically mitigate risks,” said Drew Schnabel, President and GM of Zscaler US Government Solutions. “By combining Zscaler’s ability to isolate access to potentially compromised systems with CimTrak’s change detection, we help customers automate compliance, prevent misconfigurations, and strengthen security
posture with minimal operational overhead.”

As organizations navigate increasingly complex security requirements across cloud and hybrid environments, they often fail to detect critical system changes when they occur, leaving attacks undetected for months. The address this, organizations need both comprehensive threat detection and automated response mechanisms to isolate compromised systems quickly, despite the dynamic nature of modern IT environments.

The integrations between CimTrak and Zscaler directly address these challenges by delivering comprehensive capabilities through:

• Zscaler Internet Access™ (ZIA™):
  • Integrity Monitoring: When CimTrak detects unauthorized files or critical system changes, it triggers isolation in the Zero Trust Browser and other security controls to limit access to the potentially compromised systems from the network.
  • Compliance Control: When CimTrak detects deviations from expected hardening configurations based on DISA STIGs/CIS Benchmarks, it triggers ZIA’s browser isolation and other security policy adjustments to limit access to the non-compliant system until investigated and remediated.
  • Configuration Monitoring: CimTrak monitors the ZIA tenant’s policy configurations, providing detailed alerts of any changes to maintain configuration integrity.

• Zscaler Private Access™ (ZPA™):
  • Integrity Monitoring: CimTrak’s real-time detection of system changes can trigger ZPA’s Zero Trust Browser isolation and other access control mechanisms to adjust access rights, isolate affected resources, and maintain operational availability.
  • Compliance Control: When CimTrak detects deviations from hardening standards, it can automatically adjust ZPA policies to restrict access to non-compliant systems through multiple methods, including browser isolating access to them until compliance is restored.
  • Configuration Monitoring: CimTrak provides comprehensive monitoring of the ZPA platform tenant configurations, establishing an authoritative baseline and providing detailed alerts whenever configuration changes occur within the Zscaler tenant.
