In fact, the 2024 Zscaler ThreatLabz VPN Risk Report
(https://www.zscaler.jp/blogs/security-research/new-vpn-risk-report-56-enterprises-attacked-vpn-vulnerabilities) found that 56% of organizations We found that 91% of respondents have experienced at least one VPN-related cyberattack in the past year and are concerned that a VPN puts their IT security environment at risk. Google and Zscaler’s partnership enables organizations to securely access private applications without relying on remote access VPNs. Third parties and employees accessing corporate applications from personal devices (BYOD) raises concerns such as cyber threats and data loss. Endpoint security agents and virtual desktop infrastructure (VDI) products have been used to address this challenge, but these tools are costly, complex, and provide a poor user experience. These days, some companies are using dedicated web browsers as an
alternative, but installing and managing yet another browser increases complexity and frustration for end users and organizations. Zscaler and Google’s integrated solution reduces dependence on VDI without requiring a new browser.
Benefits of integrating Zscaler Private Access with Google Chrome Enterprise Zscaler ingests signals from Chrome Enterprise, including device state, user identity, and device attributes. This enables enterprises to improve threat detection and enforce informed access controls while strengthening their security posture. You can also limit corporate access to the Chrome Enterprise browser, so employees, partners, and contractors can access private applications on-premises or in the cloud from any device, with best-in-class security and performance. Preventing confidential data leakage with Zscaler and Google Workspace Zscaler’s integration with Google Workspace productivity and collaboration apps gives businesses more control over sensitive emails and documents. For example, the Data Loss Prevention (DLP) feature prevents sensitive data from being leaked from Gmail, Drive, Sheets, Slides, and Docs. Tenant restrictions and fine-grained instance controls set different levels of user access for work and personal Gmail, allowing you to keep work and personal data separate. Additionally, integration with the Google Drive Labels API allows you to apply labels to files for classification, auditing, and data protection purposes.
