Transform your architect from firewall to zero trust

Traditional network and security models were built for a time before today's revolutionary technologies. The below tools drive digital transformation and enable organizations to become more agile and competitive, but they call for a new approach to networking and security. Digital transformation requires a zero trust architecture. 

Based on the zero trust principle of least-privileged access, our unique proxy architecture enables full TLS/SSL inspection at scale. One-to-one connections are created between users and applications based on identity,  context and business policies.  

This allows for the reduction in risk across all four stages of the attack chain by minimizing the attack surface, preventing compromise, eliminating lateral movement and stopping data loss. 

 

Zscaler's Zero Trust Approach

Verify identity

Verify whoever or whatever is attempting to gain access. The platform confirms user, device, or workload identity through integrations with third-party identity providers.

Determine Destination

Identify where the connection is going—to a webpage, SaaS app, private app, or anywhere else—and ensure the destination is known and understood.

Assess Risk

Use AI to determine risk based on context, considering factors like user behavior, device posture, destination and content, third-party intel, and more than 500 trillion daily signals.

Enforce Policy

Determine whether to grant access, block it, isolate, deceive, or do something else. The platform enforces policy in real time, on a per-session basis for each request.

Why WWT & Zscaler for Zero Trust

The Zero Trust Exchange starts with the premise that no user, workload, or device is inherently trustworthy. The platform first verifies identity and context, applies controls, and enforces policy before brokering a secure connection between a user, workload, or device and an application—over any network, from anywhere.

WWT and Zscaler have partnered to provide a cloud native platform that eliminates the need for multiple products and reduces operational burden. The Zscaler Zero Trust Exchange securely connects users, workloads, and devices from any location and network.

Comprehensive and integrated threat protection for users, devices, and workloads.

Full TSL/SSL inspection at scale for unified data protection across all channels.

Simplify and improve cloud workload security by eliminating lateral movement, reducing operational cost and complexity, and ensuring consistent threat and data protection.

Identify and resolve digital experience issues before users complain.

Zscaler Zero Trust Lab

Zscaler is responsible for securing more than 400 of the Forbes Global 2000 companies. They provide security as a service delivered through a purpose-built, globally distributed platform. The focus of this lab is zero trust access utilizing a solution known as Zscaler Private Access (ZPA). ZPA is a cloud service that provides seamless, zero trust access to private applications running on public cloud or within the data center. With ZPA, applications don't need to be exposed to the internet, making them completely invisible to unauthorized users. This service enables the applications to connect to users via inside-out connectivity versus extending the network to them. It disrupts legacy approaches to remote access such as traditional VPN, establishing per-service dynamic encryption and trust evaluation.
