Zscaler accelerates digital transformation so customers can be more agile, efficient, resilient, and secure. The Zscaler Zero Trust Exchange protects thousands of customers from cyberattacks and data loss by securely connecting users, devices, and applications in any location. Distributed across more than 150 data centres globally, the SSE-based Zero Trust Exchange is the world’s largest in-line cloud security platform.

This is what you can expect at DIGITAL X

The connectivity demand of enterprises is rapidly changing due to cloud and hybrid work models and requires a zero trust-based approach to security. From a networking point of view, more agile scenarios are required during digitalisation which offer guaranteed connectivity for both humans and machines.
In partnership with Deutsche Telekom, Teridion and Intel, a uCPE solution will be demonstrated at DIGITAL X that enables organisations to redesign their WAN backbone into a more flexible and cost-effective model for future-oriented applications at the edge. The Premium Internet Zero Trust Exchange delivers performance levels that are equivalent to today’s MPLS connections and can be created and operated with much less complexity. Always-on and secure data streams provide security for companies and machines and form the foundation for uninterrupted business operations.

What makes the product unique

Fast, secure access to cloud resources is a key driver of transformation in today’s cloud-first world. Using zero trust principles, the Zscaler Zero Trust Exchange platform empowers organisations to move away from legacy network infrastructure to achieve modern workplace enablement, infrastructure modernisation and security transformation. The cloud-native platform connects and secures users, workloads, and Iot/OT devices over any network from any location and simplifies highly complex architectures. At the same time it reduces the attack surface of organisations.

Solution for the customer

Deutsche Telekom provides an innovative uCPE Magenta box for last-mile connectivity that routes data traffic from the application to Teridion. To securely map the connection of applications at the edge, the Zscaler Zero Trust Exchange ensures the secure inside-out connection of the applications through the App Connector. Based on policies, only an authorised user can access the application. In this way, companies can eliminate their attack surface on the internet, prevent lateral movement of attackers and prevent data loss. The Branch Connector also tunnels the data traffic into the Teridion network so that end-to-end security of the entire data stream can be guaranteed.
