Legacy network security fails the needs of today’s hybrid workforce

Traditional firewalls, VPNs, and private apps are a massive attack surface.
Attackers can see and exploit vulnerable, externally exposed resources.
Network security approaches allow free lateral movement.
VPNs put users on the network, giving attackers easy access to sensitive data.
Legacy architecture can't scale or deliver a fast, seamless user experience.
VPNs require backhauling, introducing cost and complexity, and are too slow to serve today's remote workforce.

Why IT leaders should consider a ZTNA strategy
Why Zscaler Private Access?
The experience users want, with the security the business demands

Peerless security, beyond legacy VPNs and firewalls
Users connect directly to apps—not the network—minimizing the attack surface and eliminating lateral movement.

The end of private app compromise
First-of-its-kind app protection, with inline prevention, deception, and threat isolation, minimizes the risk of compromised users.

Superior productivity for today's hybrid workforce
Lightning-fast access to private apps extends seamlessly across remote users, HQ, branch offices, and third-party partners.
