Strategic Solution Pillars
The HCLTech Advantage: Engineering-led Resilience

Move beyond point-in-time security. HCLTech leverages Zscaler to implement a proactive CTEM framework, providing real-time risk quantification and asset visibility to stop attacks before they materialize.

Secure your mission-critical infrastructure. HCLTech specializes in the complex integration of IT and OT security, providing agentless, identity-centric protection for industrial control systems, SCADA, and IoT environments.

Accelerate your transition from legacy MPLS to agile, direct-to-internet SD-WAN. HCLTech manages the end-to-end transformation of global network architectures, ensuring identical security and performance for branch and remote users with Zscaler’s Zero Trust architecture, including ZTNA and modern branch approaches.

Supercharge your SOC with autonomous security operations. By integrating HCLTech AI Force with Zero Trust Exchange, we deliver context-rich analytics and automated threat hunting to reduce mean time to resolution (MTTR). HCLTech Universal Managed Detection and Response (UMDR) integrates deeply with Zscaler Internet Access (ZIA) and Zscaler Private Access (ZPA), enabling AI-assisted detection, advanced analytics, and faster automated response.

Modernize and secure branch connectivity with confidence. As the first GSI to become a Zscaler’s Zero Trust Branch (ZTB) Delivery Specialized Partner, HCLTech brings validated deployment expertise to help enterprises implement ZTB to displace legacy branch architectures - consolidating firewall, SD-WAN, and NAC use cases while extending consistent Zero Trust policy enforcement to branch users and devices at scale.
Joint Solution Areas
