The problem
Traditional network and security architectures drive up costs and ransomware risk
Extending your network to additional locations allows threats to move laterally.
Every internet-facing firewall is a potential entry point for attacks.
Managing a mesh of site-to-site VPNs and firewalls is complex and expensive.

Frequently asked questions
Zscaler Zero Trust Branch is a unified solution that combines high-performance SD-WAN and advanced device segmentation to connect and secure branch, campus, and factory locations. By routing all traffic through the Zscaler platform, it eliminates network exposure as well as the need for firewalls, VPNs, traditional SD-WAN, and network access control (NAC)-based segmentation.
Yes, Zero Trust Branch isolates and segments IoT/OT devices to stop unauthorized access and the spread of ransomware, ensuring industrial environments stay secure and operational. Because segmentation is handled without the need for an endpoint agent, it can effectively secure legacy and headless systems without the need to take them offline.
Zscaler Zero Trust SD-WAN, part of the Zero Trust Branch solution, serves as a central element of the secure access service edge (SASE) framework. Zero Trust SD-WAN securely forwards all traffic to the Zscaler platform over any broadband connection, reducing complexity and improving user experiences. Traditional SD-WAN, in contrast, creates a wide network attack surface by extending the network itself to all locations.
Customers can achieve up to 50% savings on infrastructure costs with Zero Trust Branch. The solution enables customers to eliminate branch firewalls, VPNs, and traditional SD-WAN, greatly reducing capital and operational expenditures, management, and overhead.
