Achieve Workload Microsegmentation in the Cloud
Protect mission-critical applications
Gain clear visibility into mission-critical workload activity, reduce the attack surface, and implement fine-grained segmentation policies for workloads in the cloud.
The Problem
Microsegmentation is complex within legacy architectures
Many organizations rely on legacy segmentation approaches to stop lateral movement of threats. Unfortunately, these architectures rely on firewalls, VLANs, or purpose-built appliances, which have inherent issues.
Complexity
Enforcing segmentation policies without visibility of critical workloads is difficult.
Operational overhead
Building, deploying, and maintaining policies leads to significant operational overhead.
High Cost
Implementing a purpose-built microsegmentation solution is expensive.
Solution Overview
A new architecture for workload microsegmentation in the multi-cloud
Zscaler Microsegmentation provides granular visibility, AI-powered group recommendations, and local enforcement in a simple agent-based architecture.
Benefits
Isolate and protect high-risk applications with zero trust
Eliminate lateral movement
Reduce the attack surface with precise policies that provide unmatched visibility and threat prevention.
Reduce complexity
Extend the Zscaler platform for microsegmentation, removing the need for costly point solutions.
Achieve intelligent segmentation
Use real-time telemetry to instantly define policies and accelerate security decision-making.
Use Cases
Unify visibility, policies, and protection
Gain complete visibility into resources
Get a comprehensive, detailed inventory of assets, with an overview of all traffic flows between individual workloads.
Streamline policy management with real-time, AI-suggested rules
Simplify operations with automated policy recommendations based on real-time traffic and workload insights. Take advantage of AI-assisted rule suggestions to ensure complete coverage.
Eliminate lateral movement of threats
With host-based segmentation, automatically create granular segmentation policies for traffic at the application level. Reduce the attack surface by restricting east-west traffic with zero trust principles.

FAQ
Network segmentation is a means of controlling north-south traffic (into and out of a network). Typically built from VLANs or firewalls, network segments are based on geographic region or existing network tiers. Network segmentation grants inherent trust to entities inside a given zone, and as such is not a zero trust strategy. Learn more.
Microsegmentation helps govern network access between resources (e.g., server-to-server/east-west traffic). Uniquely identifying each resource (e.g., server, application, host, user) enables fine-grained control of traffic. Combined with a zero trust approach, microsegmentation helps prevent lateral movement of threats, workload compromise, and data breaches. Learn more.
Implementing a microsegmentation solution supports compliance through granular security zones that isolate sensitive systems, workloads, and data. It enforces fine-grained access controls using policies based on user identity, application, and context, reducing lateral movement and exposure. Limiting unauthorized access aligns with strict requirements in regulations like GDPR, HIPAA, and PCI DSS.
