What is zero trust?

As organizations leverage cloud services and mobility, attack surfaces grow in tandem with overall security risks. A new approach is needed to better protect workloads outside of an organization's traditional controls. Zero trust is a security framework that implements the principal of "least privilege" by dynamically verifying identity and assessing the risk of each transaction. By implementing zero trust across all networks — including public and private clouds — it allows security teams to gain back control and improve visibility.

Zero Trust

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.

How do I get started?

Many organizations are unsure of how to approach implementing a zero trust security model. Our team of experts can help every step of the way — from understanding key concepts to selecting the right technology — no matter the starting point. Explore below how our phased approach to adopting zero trust allows organizations to establish a global strategy and technical roadmap.

Evaluate

The first step is solidifying a zero trust strategy and assessing the risks and maturity of your current approach. Our team can help your organization lay the foundation for a successful adoption through our briefings, assessments, workshops and consulting offerings.

Implement

Solution implementation is the next step in order. Companies often struggle to implement enterprise segmentation and zero trust because of the amount of complexity, the limitless number of technical variables present in brownfield environments, and a lack of staffing and resources. Our experts can help simplify this complexity by developing a plan that allows for more agile workflows, leading to shorter implementations.
