The Zscaler Zero Trust Exchange

Embrace zero trust architecture with the power of AI

Network- and firewall-centric architectures cannot deliver the security or agility that our mobile and cloud era demands. A new architecture is required.

Architecture Matters

Digital transformation requires a zero trust architecture

Digital transformation requires a zero trust architecture

Network- and firewall-centric architecture

A trusted network connects users, sites, and apps, but once breached, enables attackers to move laterally and steal data. On top of being a security risk, it's complex and impedes transformation.

Zero trust architecture

Business policies determine who can access what over any network; the network is just transport. It's secure, simple, and enables transformation.

#1
Attackers find you

All IPs are vulnerable—even firewalls, which are meant to protect you in the first place.

#2
They compromise you

Attackers exploit vulnerabilities to establish a beachhead in your network.

#3
They move laterally

Once a machine is infected, the entire network is compromised.

#4
They steal your data

Sensitive data across applications, servers, and entire networks is lost.

Transform your architecture from firewalls to zero trust

Organizations worldwide have spent billions on firewalls, yet breaches are increasing. The problem is simple: traditional firewall-centric architectures are no longer effective against cyberthreats.

Built on the principle of least privilege, Zscaler’s proxy architecture enables full TLS/SSL inspection at scale, with connections brokered between users and applications based on identity, context, and business policies.

How It’s Done

Only Zscaler zero trust leverages the full power of AI

The Zscaler Zero Trust Exchange™ starts with the premise that no user, workload, or device is inherently trustworthy. The platform verifies identity, determines destination, assesses risk through AI, and enforces policy before brokering a secure connection between a user, workload, or device and an application—over any network, from anywhere.

Verify identity

Verify whoever or whatever is attempting access. User, device, or workload identity is confirmed through integrations with third-party identity providers.

Determine destination

Identify where the connection is going—whether to a webpage, SaaS app, private app, or something 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 what action to take. This is done on a per-session basis and ultimately results in a conditional allow or block for each access request.
