Zscaler Zero Trust Architecture for Private 5G
Powering the next wave of digital transformation
Fifth Generation Wireless (5G) and Edge Computing are powering the next wave of digital transformation by accelerating innovation.
Low-latency, high-bandwidth connections at massive scale
Real-time apps powering Industry 4.0 and interactive AR/VR experiences
5G and edge workloads are an attractive target for cyberattacks
Once a threat actor gains access to the network they can disrupt operations, steal, and encrypt sensitive data.
Large Attack Surface
Every internet facing firewall, on premise and in the cloud, can be discovered and attacked
Risk of Compromise
Devices (UE) lack sufficient security and can easily be compromised, serving as a beachhead to find high-value targets
Risk of Lateral Movement
A single infected device on a routable network can infect everything on the network

Zscaler Zero Trust Architecture for Private 5G
Secures and simplifies private 5G deployments for Centralized 5G Core
Secure Apps and Data
- Minimize the egress and ingress attack surface
- Identify workload vulnerabilities, misconfigurations, and excessive permissions
Enable Zero Trust Connectivity
- Secure site-to-site connectivity over the internet without a routable network (5G UPF to Core)
- Ensure users and devices (UE) are not on the same routable network as apps in the MEC, DC, and cloud
Secure Communications
- Prevents compromise and data loss with inline content inspection
Provide Digital Experience Management
- Quickly resolve performance issues with visibility into device, network, and app performance
