Zscaler Private Access (ZPA) is a new approach to secure remote access that’s based on a software-defined perimeter (SDP) model. A fully cloud-delivered service, ZPA ensures that only authorized users have access to specific private applications by creating secure segments of one between a user and an app. More than a VPN alternative, ZPA eliminates the attack surface and enables you to support multicloud environments simply and securely.

Built with the fundamentals of a service-initiated zero trust network access (ZTNA) architecture, Zscaler B2B enables authorized customers to view applications, based on business policy, without ever exposing the apps to the internet where they are often attacked.
