Zscaler unveils Security Service Edge innovations to protect enterprises from sophisticated cyberattacks
scaler , a leader in cloud
Z security , has advanced its
Security Service Edge ( SSE ) framework with three Zero Trust Network Access ( ZTNA ) innovations for IT and security teams to confidently replace legacy firewalls and VPNs . Delivered as part of the Zscaler Zero Trust Exchange , these innovations establish a new standard for ZTNA to minimise the attack surface and prevent lateral movement , while stopping compromised users and insider threats with private app protection , integrated deception and privileged remote access capabilities for business and OT systems .
Today , employees are highly mobile and critical applications have moved to the cloud – no longer residing inside the corporate network protected by a secure perimeter . This fundamental shift to cloud and mobility has caused organisations to abandon the legacy network-centric VPN approach in favour of a modern user- and app-centric security model that delivers Zero Trust secure access to private apps by establishing a direct connection from user-to-application on a dynamic identity- and context-aware basis .
“ As enterprise applications continue to move to the cloud and hybrid workplaces become the norm , a Zero Trust architecture is needed to support distributed users , devices , apps and workloads ,” said Tony Paterra , Senior Vice President of Emerging Products at Zscaler . “ Our next-generation ZTNA approach is one of the simplest , most comprehensive approaches to securely access private applications and transform legacy network security to minimise the attack surface and shutdown the most advanced attacks .”
