Zscaler Private Access

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.
