A zero-trust cloud security platform that accelerates M&A IT integration and divestiture carve-outs by connecting users to applications without merging networks.
Zscaler is a NASDAQ-listed cloud security company (San Jose, California) whose Zero Trust Exchange platform connects users, devices and applications without traditional network-perimeter integration.
