Secure and fast access to any app from anywhere

Government agencies are embracing cloud transformation. But moving applications out of the data center and into the cloud extends the security perimeter to the internet. This shift requires agencies to consider the best approach to securing users and applications, regardless of location.

The FedRAMP authorized Zscaler Government Cloud secures every connection between users, apps, and workloads, providing better security, reducing cost and complexity, and delivering an improved user experience.

With FedRAMP-authorization, Applications are moving out of the data center and into the cloud and users have moved off the internal network.

Zscaler Internet Access: Deliver the Security Stack as a Service from the Cloud

As government agencies implement IT modernization initiatives, they need to reduce appliance complexity and improve user experience. Zscaler Internet Access (ZIA) enables agencies to route mission-critical traffic straight to the cloud, without the latency of hairpinning through MTIPS or the legacy TIC perimeter.

Zscaler's FedRAMP authorized secure internet and web gateway solution, ZIA Government, securely connects users over the internet to externally managed applications regardless of device, employee location, or network. Agencies can reduce the costs associated with backhauling traffic through outdated technology and the associated complex array of security applications, while increasing performance.

Zscaler enables agencies to embrace a cloud-first model—securely.

Zscaler Private Access: Create a Trust-to-Trust connection as an alternative to the traditional TIC

Government agencies are in the midst of a transformation. Applications are moving out of the data center and into the cloud and users have moved off the internal network. Consider how best to allow users to access applications from remote locations from any device—government issued or not—without introducing risk.
