HOW IT WORKS

Zscaler Internet Access

Zero trust access to internet and SaaS applications is provided by first verifying the identity and context (who, what, where) of the access request. After dynamically computing a risk score, Zscaler inspects traffic inline to protect against cyberthreats and data loss before establishing connectivity to the internet or SaaS apps. ZIA secures users as well as workloads and IoT/OT devices as they access the internet or SaaS destinations.

Antivirus

Detect and block viruses with signature-based detection and protection capabilities.

Isolation

Prevent compromise while boosting user productivity by applying web content or user risk score-based policies to automatically isolate sessions and stop malicious threats.

Endpoint protection

Secure endpoint data, control removable media, and prevent BYOD data loss.

Advanced data classification

Protect customized data with Exact Data Match (EDM), Indexed Document Match (EDM), and Optical Character Recognition (OCR).

Workflow automation

Enable streamlined data loss investigations across admins, managers, and users with automated workflows.

SaaS security posture management

Find and close dangerous misconfigurations in SaaS apps.

Isolation

Eliminate the risk of sensitive data loss through vulnerable users and infected endpoints by allowing secure access to sanctioned SaaS apps through integrated browser isolation.
