Zscaler, Inc. is a cloud-native cybersecurity company built around a zero trust architecture. Its Zero Trust Exchange acts as the central policy and enforcement plane for securing internet access, private applications, workloads, branches, and devices through direct, policy-based connections rather than network extension. That model is designed to reduce attack surface, limit lateral movement, and protect against cyberthreats and data loss.
Zscaler, Inc. positions its portfolio as an AI-era security platform that combines zero trust connectivity with data security, AI security, and security operations capabilities delivered from a large inline cloud. Its offerings are aimed at modernizing remote access, branch and cloud connectivity, and digital experience management while helping organizations move away from legacy firewall-and-VPN architectures.
Offerings, Capabilities, and Integrations
Zscaler, Inc. offers cloud-delivered security across core use cases for users, workloads, branches, IoT and OT, data, and AI. Its portfolio spans secure internet and SaaS access, private application access, digital experience monitoring, browser-based isolation, cloud firewalling, branch and SD-WAN connectivity, cellular IoT security, unified data protection, and AI-specific controls. The portfolio is designed to apply context-aware policy consistently across distributed environments without relying on traditional perimeter controls.
Zscaler, Inc. also emphasizes interoperability. Its platform integrates with major identity providers for SSO and provisioning, supports operational workflows across SIEM, SOAR, ITSM, and related tools, and works with endpoint and device management ecosystems. On the cloud side, Zscaler, Inc. has verified marketplace or deployment presence across AWS and Microsoft Azure, and it supports workload security deployments in Google Cloud Platform environments through Cloud Connector.
