Zscaler Client Connector™ is a lightweight agent for any user endpoint, enabling hybrid work through secure, fast, and reliable access to any destination, over any network.
Why It’s Important
A mobile world needs secure remote access
Users now work from anywhere, and require seamless access to websites, SaaS apps, and private apps, whether in the cloud or a data center. To help workforces be productive and secure, organizations need to retire network-centric solutions in favor of simpler, safer, zero trust communications.
Architecture Matters
Firewall-and-VPN architectures connect users to the network for security and connectivity—even remote users accessing SaaS. This slows productivity, enables lateral threat movement, and entails other risks.
Client Connector, a lightweight agent, forwards user traffic to the Zscaler Zero Trust Exchange, the world’s largest cloud security platform, which acts as an intelligent switchboard to securely connect users directly to their destinations.
The Zscaler Difference
What sets Client Connector apart?

Client Connector facilitates seamless zero trust communications to the internet, SaaS, and private apps in the cloud and data center.

Client Connector supports laptops, smartphones, and tablets, and runs on Windows, macOS, Linux, ChromeOS, iOS, and Android.

Client Connector provides granular insights into device security posture, enabling Zscaler to deliver context-based adaptive access control.

Zscaler Endpoint DLP uses Client Connector to stop data leakage via channels like removable storage, printing, and personal cloud storage.

Zscaler Digital Experience (ZDX) uses Client Connector to gain valuable insights into device events and health, accelerating issue resolution.

Zscaler Deception uses Client Connector to deploy decoy passwords, cookies, sessions, and app bookmarks on endpoints, luring attackers.

Zscaler’s unified UI offers comprehensive, cloud-based management (and automation via OneAPI) that streamlines administration.
