Secure Hybrid Cloud Workload Communications with Zscaler Zero Trust Cloud

Solution Overview

Zscaler offers a revolutionary solution with Zero Trust Cloud to address the challenges faced by legacy architectures in protecting workloads in hybrid-cloud environments. Traditional approaches degrade security and add operational overhead, amplifying lateral movement and the attack surface, increasing latency, and costs due to backhauling traffic. The Zscaler Zero Trust Exchange™ platform provides a modern, robust security architecture that inspects all traffic inline to guard against cyberthreats and data loss. It offers workload segmentation across multiple clouds and ensures the protection of traffic to internet, SaaS apps, or other workloads.

Benefits

By adopting Zscaler Zero Trust Cloud, users can secure cloud workloads with a modern zero trust architecture, enforcing comprehensive threat and data protection with standardized security controls across multicloud environments. The solution eliminates lateral movement and reduces the attack surface by implementing segmentation between and within clouds, VPCs, and VMs. Additionally, operational complexity and costs are significantly reduced as firewalls, proxies, ExpressRoute, Interconnect, and Direct Connect are eliminated.

Use Cases

Zscaler Zero Trust Cloud enables comprehensive hybrid cloud workload security with the ability to secure workload-to-internet connectivity, connect workload-to-workload communication, and segment workloads effectively. By securing workload-to-internet traffic, Zscaler offers a scalable, reliable security solution that inspects all transactions, allowing workloads and servers to access any internet or SaaS destination seamlessly.

Customer Success Stories

Micron Technology, a company with over 45,000 employees across 17 countries, utilized Zscaler's Workload Communications solution to reduce operational overhead by half. They reported increased employee satisfaction, considerable reduction in cyberthreats, and enhanced data protection. This success story showcases the power of Zscaler's Zero Trust Cloud in securing workloads in hybrid cloud environments.

Protecting Branches and Clouds with Zscaler's Zero Trust Solution

The Problem with Legacy Network and Security Architectures

Legacy network and security architectures are often expensive and enable ransomware attacks due to the lateral movement of threats between branches and the cloud. Extending the network to branches not only increases the attack surface but also introduces vulnerabilities that can be exploited by cyber threats. Additionally, the use of multiple internet-facing firewalls and a complex network of site-to-site VPNs and firewalls drive up costs and add unnecessary complexity to the infrastructure.

Securing Networking and Security Simplified with Zscaler Zero Trust SASE

The Problem with Traditional SD-WAN

Traditional SD-WAN has been instrumental in reducing costs related to WAN circuits, but it falls short due to its inherent trust model. This trust extension between locations increases the attack surface by exposing more IP addresses to the public internet, heightens the risk of ransomware attacks, and adds complexity by requiring additional security equipment. With Gartner projecting a shift towards integrated SASE offerings, it's evident that a zero trust architecture is crucial for secure and efficient connectivity.
