Zscaler Joins Forces with Google to Offer Unparalleled Zero Trust Data and Threat Protection

Enterprises can now Ensure Secure, Remote Access to Private Web Apps across devices and locations with Zscaler and Google Chrome Enterprise

SAN JOSE, Calif., May 07, 2024 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Zscaler, Inc. (NASDAQ: ZS), the leader in cloud security, has collaborated with Google on a joint zero trust architecture with Chrome Enterprise. This powerful combination brings the power of Zscaler Private Access (ZPA) enabling zero trust secure access to private applications to anyone across different locations and devices, with the advanced threat and data protection capabilities of Chrome Enterprise Premium. Together, they deliver an unmatched level of cybersecurity to safeguard users against malware, phishing, and advanced attacks targeting private applications.

In the modern workplace in which cloud-based apps are the norm, browsers serve as the gateway to sensitive data and are prime targets for cyber threats. From phishing attacks to malware downloads and data exfiltration, the risks continue to rise. In fact, in the recent Zscaler ThreatLabz 2024 Phishing Report, the research team found a 60% increase in AI-powered phishing attacks due to a rapidly evolving threat landscape. Adopting a zero trust architecture coupled with Google Chrome Enterprise Premium offers users the most secure enterprise browsing.

Enterprises using Google’s Chrome Enterprise Premium with Zscaler Private Access receive many benefits, including:

• Secure Zero Trust Access to Private Apps: Zscaler Private Access hides applications behind the Zero Trust Exchange and connects users directly to applications (vs network) via AI-powered segmentation to minimize the attack surface and eliminate lateral threat movement.
• Simplified Management and Data Protections: Chrome Enterprise Premium provides centralized control over browser settings, extensions, and data loss prevention (DLP) functions including data exfiltration controls, copy, paste and print restrictions. This complements Zscaler's data protection across endpoints, email, SaaS and cloud.
• Enhanced User Experience: Users gain access to a familiar and intuitive browsing experience while remaining protected. This joint solution empowers employees to work securely from any location on any managed device, promoting flexibility and productivity.
