Zscaler

Secure internet access, private application access, data protection and digital experience monitoring through Zscaler’s Zero Trust Exchange.

Zscaler’s Zero Trust Exchange is a cloud-native platform that securely connects users, devices, and workloads to applications — never the network. Unlike traditional VPNs or firewalls, it applies identity and context-based policies to ensure only authorized access, minimizing the attack surface. The platform delivers Zero Trust Network Access (ZTNA), Secure Web Gateway (SWG), Cloud Access Security Broker (CASB), Firewall (FW), and Data Protection in one integrated service. With inline inspection of encrypted traffic and real–time threat prevention, the Zero Trust Exchange reduces risk, prevents lateral movement, and improves user experience. It enables enterprises to adopt cloud and hybrid work securely, at scale, and with confidence.

Why Platformize Security with Zscaler

Zscaler lets organisations consolidate multiple security functions into a single cloud-delivered platform, reducing appliance sprawl, simplifying policy enforcement and giving users secure access from anywhere. This is especially relevant where customers are trying to reduce VPN reliance, modernise internet security, improve SaaS controls and gain better visibility into user experience. Simplifying the security environment also enables consolidated reporting for better security awareness and for regulatory reporting.

Zscaler’s cloud–native Zero Trust Exchange secures users, devices, and apps anywhere—without traditional perimeters. With integrated SWG, CASB, ZTNA, firewall, and DLP, Zscaler simplifies IT, blocks threats in real time, and ensures safe, seamless cloud adoption for enterprises worldwide.


Zscaler Product Descriptions

Zscaler provides a broad portfolio of cloud-delivered security and connectivity capabilities built around its Zero Trust Exchange platform. The following product descriptions outline the key functions of the Zscaler portfolio, including secure internet access, private application access, digital experience monitoring, data protection, threat prevention and branch connectivity, and explain how each capability contributes to a modern Zero Trust architecture.

Zero Trust Exchange (ZTE)

The Zscaler Zero Trust Exchange™ is a cloud-native security platform designed to replace traditional network-centric security with a Zero Trust architecture. Rather than placing users and applications on the same network and relying on perimeter controls, the platform acts as an intelligent policy enforcement layer, securely connecting authorized users, devices, workloads, branches, IoT/OT systems and third parties directly to the applications and services they are permitted to access.

By evaluating identity, device posture, context, risk and policy for each connection, the Zero Trust Exchange reduces the attack surface and limits lateral movement while providing consistent security regardless of where users or applications are located. Its integrated architecture brings together secure internet access, private application access, data protection, threat prevention and workload security within a common platform, helping organizations simplify security operations while supporting cloud, hybrid work and digital transformation initiatives.

Zscaler Private Access (ZPA)

Zscaler Private Access (ZPA) is a cloud-delivered Zero Trust Network Access solution that provides secure access to private applications without extending the corporate network to the user. Instead of placing users onto the network as a traditional VPN does, ZPA establishes policy-controlled connections between authenticated users and the specific applications they are authorized to access.

Private applications can reside in corporate data centers, private clouds, public cloud environments or other distributed locations. ZPA uses lightweight App Connectors deployed close to those applications to establish outbound connections to the Zscaler Zero Trust Exchange, eliminating the need to expose applications directly to the internet or accept unsolicited inbound connections.

Access policies can incorporate user identity, application, device posture and other contextual information to provide granular, least-privilege access. Applications are organized into application segments, allowing organizations to control precisely which users and groups can reach particular services rather than granting broad network-level connectivity.

By separating application access from network access, ZPA significantly reduces the attack surface and limits opportunities for lateral movement. It can be used to replace or reduce reliance on traditional remote-access VPN infrastructure while also providing secure private application access for employees, contractors, third parties, branch users and other authorized users.

Zscaler Private Access (ZPA) Overview


Zscaler Digital Experience (ZDX)

Securing users is only part of the challenge. Organisations also need to ensure that users have a consistent, high-quality experience when accessing SaaS applications, cloud services and private applications from anywhere. Zscaler Digital Experience (ZDX) provides end-to-end visibility into the digital user experience, helping IT teams quickly identify whether performance issues originate from the endpoint, local network, ISP, Zscaler cloud or the application itself.

By combining application performance monitoring with detailed network and endpoint telemetry, ZDX significantly reduces troubleshooting time and improves operational visibility across distributed workforces. Rather than relying on multiple monitoring tools, organisations gain a unified view of the complete user journey, enabling faster problem resolution and a better overall user experience.

Zscaler Advanced Threat Protection

Zscaler Advanced Threat Protection provides cloud-delivered protection against sophisticated malware, command-and-control activity, botnets and other advanced threats as traffic moves between users and the internet. Integrated with Zscaler Internet Access, it inspects web and non-web traffic in real time and applies multiple detection techniques to identify malicious content, destinations and communications before they can reach users or establish a foothold in the environment.

The service combines threat intelligence, reputation analysis, behavioral detection and inline security controls to identify both known and emerging attacks. It can detect and block malicious payloads, callback activity and suspicious network behavior while providing security teams with centralized policy enforcement and visibility across users, devices and locations. As part of the Zscaler Zero Trust Exchange, Advanced Threat Protection extends consistent threat prevention to users wherever they connect, without requiring traditional perimeter-based security appliances.

Zscaler Advanced Cloud Sandbox

Zscaler Advanced Cloud Sandbox provides advanced protection against zero-day malware, ransomware, advanced persistent threats and other previously unknown file-based attacks. Integrated with Zscaler Internet Access (ZIA), it analyzes suspicious files in a controlled virtual environment to identify malicious behavior that may not be detectable through signatures or reputation alone. Because the analysis is delivered from Zscaler's cloud-native security platform, potentially malicious files can be inspected as part of the normal traffic flow, including files delivered through encrypted SSL/TLS sessions.

Advanced Cloud Sandbox combines behavioral analysis with AI-driven threat detection and can deliver rapid verdicts for previously unseen files. Policy can be defined by user, location and other criteria, allowing organizations to determine how suspicious content should be handled. Depending on policy, files can be quarantined while analysis is performed, helping prevent a previously unknown threat from reaching its first victim, while detailed sandbox reporting provides security teams with visibility into detected malware and its behavior. Advanced capabilities also include granular policy control, API-driven file analysis and enhanced threat intelligence for investigation and response.
