Unleash the Full Power of Zscaler Security for Your Mobile Users
Zscaler Client Connector, formerly Zscaler App (Z App), enforces security and policy control for millions of devices worldwide
The challenge of enforcing secure mobile access
The number of BYOD and managed devices being used for work continues to grow each year. This places pressure on IT as they now must be able to secure these devices as they access the internet, SaaS and internal applications. But securing traffic to different types of apps is often complex for IT and forces end users to actually think about how to do it, hampering the ability to deliver a seamless user experience.
Common issues include
- Complex policies must be created to provide devices with access to apps.
- VPNs are required for access to internal applications.
- The poor user experience leads to frustration and the use of workarounds.
- Mobile security solutions are often incompatible with existing MDMs.
- Mobile security solutions are unable to support a variety of devices and OSs.
Client Connector (formerly Z App)
A single app to enforce secure mobile access to enterprise applications
Benefits of Client Connector
One app for all your mobile access needs
Auto-routes traffic for seamless user experience
By default, Client Connector routes mobile traffic through the Zscaler cloud for secure access and the optimal route. It can also detect trusted networks and captive portals to prioritize the user experience.
Fingerprint devices for mapping to specific users
Uses criteria like device model, platform and OS to ensure devices are mapped to specific users. If credentials fall into the wrong hands, security remains intact.
Dashboard for visibility and device usage
The Client Connector portal allows admins to view data for devices with Client Connector deployed and manage policies specifically for Client Connector.
Support for a variety of devices and OSs
Zscaler Client Connector supports the majority of platforms including iOS, Android, Windows and MacOS.
Enforced enrollment and use of Zscaler Client Connector
IT can require enrollment of user devices prior to accessing apps. It can prevent users from turning off the app to ensure all mobile traffic is secure.
Seamless deployment via auto install and MDM
Easily deploy the Client Connector app onto endpoint devices to minimize user friction via MDM or Microsoft Intune. Silent deployment auto-installs client and SSL certificates onto device during enrollment.

Client Connector combines the security of ZIA and ZPA for 5,000 users at MAN Energy Solutions.
View and control which user devices are connecting to your apps
The Zscaler admin portal gives IT full visibility into device data. IT can view the number of Client Connector licenses subscribed vs. used, the breakdown of device models, OSs, policy status, and specific users who have Client Connector deployed. They can also set custom security policies from the portal.
Strengthen mobile security with device fingerprinting
Uniquely identify all devices and map them to your specific users. This allows IT to enhance visibility and reporting while making it easier to act on information. By coupling user credentials with a specific device, IT can deepen the level of mobile security they provide, and protect against stolen credentials being used to impersonate authorized users.

Seamless device enrollment and user experience
The entire process for getting Client Connector deployed onto your user devices is easy and scalable. The user login process is frictionless, and key integrations with MDM providers, Microsoft Intune, LDAP, ADFS, and more make a typically frustrating and time-consuming process simple and fast. IT can even silently roll out Client Connector onto devices without prompting users.
