Solution Overview

The Zscaler Internet Access: Secure Branch (SASE Lab Series) is a capability of the Advanced Technology Center (ATC) designed to provide an environment to gain hands-on experience with the Zscaler Internet Access solution. The environment that supports the lab blends vendor cloud infrastructure with ATC Private Cloud, removing hardware dependencies associated with physical infrastructure.

Zscaler Internet Access (ZIA) is a cloud delivered security service that sits between the users and the Internet. ZIA will inspect every byte of traffic inline across multiple security techniques providing full protection from web and internet threats. The Zscaler cloud platform provides many security features including: Secure Web Gateway, Cloud Firewall, Cloud IPS, Cloud Sandbox, Cloud Data Loss Prevention, CASB and Cloud Browser Isolation

Zscaler solutions embrace cloud-native design that scale to meet the demands of the largest customers. Security policy can be applied centrally to the entire organization based on location, department, identity, time or a combination of all four. Zscaler can "cloudify" your security operations giving your organization the scalability, agility and efficacy needed to combat sophisticated cyber threats.

The SASE Lab Series is designed to help you develop an understanding and proficiency in deploying advanced networking and security features available on the Zscaler Internet Access platform. By the end of this lab, you should gain enough knowledge to be familiar with core SASE concepts and have enough knowledge to begin applying these types of solutions in your own environment.
