Help your customers be breach ready — not just breach defended.
A CDW + ColorTokens resource for sales and architecture reps. Use this page to bring microsegmentation, lateral movement control, and minimum viable business into your next customer conversation.
CDW + ColorTokens, together against lateral movement.
ColorTokens is now a ColorTokens-authorized partner technology available through CDW. That means your customers can get the leading enterprise microsegmentation platform — Xshield™ — sourced, architected, and supported through the CDW account team they already trust.
Perimeter and endpoint spending is up. Breach impact is still rising.
The industry has overinvested in stopping initial access and underinvested in stopping what happens next: attackers moving laterally inside the environment. That gap is where ransomware becomes a crisis — and where ColorTokens fits.
What to say when a customer asks, “what does ColorTokens actually do?”
Assume the breach. Be ready for it.
Modern security isn't about whether an attacker gets in — it's about whether they can do anything once they're inside. Xshield makes the environment breach ready by design so a single compromise doesn't become a crisis.
Keep the business running under attack.
Identify the crown-jewel systems the business cannot operate without, wrap micro-perimeters around them, and guarantee they stay isolated and available even if the rest of the environment is compromised.
Stop the spread, not just the entry.
Firewalls and EDR fight to keep attackers out. ColorTokens makes sure that when they get in, they can't move sideways — no jumping from a laptop to a domain controller, from IT to OT, or from dev to prod.
A micro-perimeter around every workload.
AI-assisted discovery, visualization, and policy synthesis across IT, OT, IoT, and cloud — using any enforcement method, including your existing EDR. Days to value, not months.
What makes ColorTokens different from the microsegmentation crowd.
How to open the ColorTokens conversation in 30 seconds.
A simple framework you can drop into an existing security discovery call.
- STEP 01Qualify
“If an attacker landed on a laptop tonight, how confident are you that they couldn’t reach your crown-jewel systems?”
- STEP 02Frame
“Most security stops the entry. ColorTokens stops the spread — that’s the difference between an incident and a headline.”
- STEP 03Hand off
Loop me in and we’ll co-deliver a 30-minute breach-readiness assessment with your customer’s security team.
- Recent ransomware concern or near-miss
- Zero Trust or NIST 800-207 initiative
- Cyber insurance renewal pressure
- OT/IoT environments alongside IT
- Existing EDR (CrowdStrike, SentinelOne, Defender)
- Regulated industry: healthcare, finance, federal
Let’s win a deal together.
