Why Use Zero Trust Access?
Zero Trust Access leverages the existing deployment of threat defense as an enforcement point to application access. It allows for segmented access to a private application with per application authorization and per application tunnel for remote and on-premise users.
The feature hides the network from users and allows users to only access applications they are authorized for. Authorization for one application in the network does not give an implicit authorization for other applications on the network, thereby reducing the attack surface significantly. In other words, every access to an application must be explicitly authorized.
Adding the zero trust access functionality to threat defense enables migration to a more secure access model without having to install or manage yet another device in the network.
The feature is easy to manage as it does not require a client and is per application access.
