Advanced Threat Protection
Close the security appliance gap with cloud-delivered advanced threat protection
Hackers have shifted their attacks to your network’s weakest link: the user. They exploit the shortcomings of appliances by infecting your users when they visit trusted sites on the internet. Hackers often attempt to hide attacks behind SSL-encrypted or CDN-delivered traffic.
To immediately close this gap, you can add Zscaler as a layer of security and compliance between your existing infrastructure and the Internet. It’s simple – make Zscaler your next hop to the Internet. There’s no hardware, software or headaches.
Hackers easily exploit the shortcomings of security appliances
Hackers are using some of the world’s most trafficked websites to spread malware and, as a result, they’re totally undermining the concept of trusted sites.
In this diagram, a user visits a trusted website that has been compromised. Existing security controls won’t detect the malware, because it’s housed in a trusted domain, it uses allowed ports, and there are no signature matches.
Which do you prioritize—level of inspection, budget, or user experience?
Every hardware appliance is limited in terms of capacity and functionality by the amount of processing power you can squeeze into a box. The deeper the level of inspection, the more boxes you need-and more boxes result in a slower user experience. This forces compromises in terms of what gets inspected and the depth of inspection.
Most enterprises sacrifice SSL inspection since it can require up to 8x the number of security appliances and they often let traffic from content delivery networks (CDNs) go uninspected since they’re a pay-to- play service.
If you know these threats are real, but think they probably don’t apply to you, find out for sure. A simple two-minute test using the Zscaler Security Preview will give you picture of how secure you really are.
Check Your Security NowZscaler—inspecting every byte of traffic, always inline with real-time threat correlation
Zscaler, in developing its cloud-based architecture, broke down all the functional components of a standalone proxy and re- imagined them—creating a distributed service that forms a single virtual proxy extending across more than 100 data centers. The Zscaler proxy-based architecture delivers superior protection over other types of security controls, because the entire file is downloaded, assembled, uncompressed, and scanned for malicious content before it reaches the end user or calls out to a command and control (C&C) server. All inspection is done at wire- rate performance with only microsecond latency.
Zscaler’s advanced threat protection delivers unique benefits
Benefiting from the power of cloud-computing, the Zscaler platform is always inline, inspecting every byte of traffic,
and performing real-time threat correlation using multiple techniques. The massive scale of the global network
provides unique insight into advanced and zero-day threats as they emerge.
Full inline inspection of all inbound and outbound traffic, including SSL
protect enterprise, small to medium and SOHO users from advanced and emerging threats including botnets, malware, phishing attacks and more, and securely enable cloud applications and social media.
Real-time threat correlation
uses intelligence from a dozen threat prevention techniques to stop known
threats, prevent zero-day attacks, and predict new attacks using machine learning and behavioral analysis.
Improved protection through cloud intelligence
that comes from processing more than 30 billion requests
per day across 100 data centers around the world. This volume gives us unique insight that helps us protect
all users, because each time a new threat is detected by any one of our customers, it’s immediately blocked
for everyone.
The most up-to- the-second security
as a result of collaboration with 40 partner security feeds from
Microsoft, Cyber Threat Alliance, Google, and private working groups, which supplements the intelligence we
gain from mining billions of web transactions. All of this adds up to more than 100,000 security updates a
day.
Unified policies and enforcement
let you define business policies once, then those policies follow the user
regardless of the device or location. Any policy change is immediately enforced worldwide on the very next
web GET request.
