Secure, remote access to all private apps

Zero Trust Network Access (ZTNA) uses least privilege principles, contextual insights, and client or clientless-based methods to deny access by default and allow access to apps when granted. No-touch VPN as a Service (VPNaaS) extends coverage to non-ZTNA-enabled apps.

Defend users and resources from malware

Secure web gateway inspects web traffic, both encrypted and unencrypted, for deep protection. Downloaded files are scanned, known malicious content is blocked, and unknown files are sandboxed and analyzed. Controls can block specific user activities and destinations that violate policy.

Expose shadow IT and protect sensitive data

A Cloud Access Security Broker (CASB) discovers cloud applications in use and reports reputation, compliance, and risk scores. CASB enables SaaS adoption control and blocks improper apps. DLP protects against data exfiltration, and cloud malware detection removes infected files.

Provide broad traffic monitoring and inspection

Firewall as a service (FWaaS) with IPS blocks unwanted non-web traffic across all ports and protocols. It examines content at layers 3/4/7, automatically drops unsafe packets, and prevents vulnerability exploits. Digital experience monitoring for applications and resources proactively tracks the health and performance of the endpoint, network connection, and core SaaS apps for faster issue detection and resolution.
