Ivanti Connect Secure vs. Zscaler Private Access

Ivanti Connect Secure (ICS) - delivers secure, high‑performance remote access through a single unified client for both remote and on‑site connectivity, reducing operational overhead while maintaining a consistent security posture. It enforces dynamic, zero‑trust‑aligned access with real‑time identity and device‑state checks to mitigate unauthorized access risks. Integrated endpoint compliance, adaptive MFA, and per‑app VPN controls strengthen protection across diverse devices.

Zscaler Private Access (ZPA) is a cloud-based zero trust solution that securely connects users to private applications hosted in public clouds, data centers, or on-premises environments without relying on traditional VPNs or exposing them to the internet. Built on the principles of zero trust, ZPA ensures that users are authenticated and authorized before granting access, providing application-specific access rather than exposing the network.
