Zero Trust Networking
Legacy network architectures weren’t built for cloud-first environments and distributed workforces. They’re complex, inflexible, and vulnerable to cyberthreats like ransomware.
Legacy networks can’t do zero trust
Zscaler Zero Trust Networking allows users and devices to securely communicate with applications—wherever they are located—without the use of firewalls/VPNs, and provides end-to-end visibility to help optimize digital experience. Organizations can realize the benefits of single-vendor SASE with the security of zero trust.
