Overview
Aryaka
Aryaka offers a unified SASE (Secure Access Service Edge) platform designed to simplify how you connect and protect your global workforce. By combining a private core network with advanced security features, the platform eliminates the unpredictability of the public internet. You can ensure your business-critical applications perform consistently for every user, whether they are working in a branch office or from a remote location.
The solution solves the complexity of managing multiple point products by integrating SD-WAN, firewall-as-a-service, and secure web gateways into a single managed service. You can scale your network infrastructure rapidly without the typical headaches of hardware procurement or manual configuration. It is particularly effective for mid-to-large enterprises with international operations that require high-performance connectivity and robust protection against evolving digital threats.
Zscaler Internet Access
Zscaler Internet Access (ZIA) transforms how you secure your workforce by moving your security stack to the cloud. Instead of routing traffic through a slow corporate VPN or physical appliances, you connect users directly to the world’s largest security cloud. This ensures your team stays protected from malware, ransomware, and phishing attempts whether they are working from the office, a home network, or a coffee shop.
You can replace outdated web gateways with a unified platform that inspects all traffic, including encrypted data, without slowing down your connection. It simplifies your infrastructure by eliminating the need to manage hardware, while giving you full visibility into every user activity and potential threat across your entire organization. By using a zero-trust architecture, you ensure that security follows the user, not the network.
