ZTNA 2.0, powered by Palo Alto Networks
The next evolution in Zero Trust access and protection.
Overview
Zero Trust Network Access is no longer enough
Implicit trust
Once traditional Zero Trust Network Access (ZTNA) verifies that a user is permitted access to an application, it simply makes the connection and stops there, which gives opportunity to insider threats.
Limited security inspection
ZTNA was designed purely as an access control mechanism; therefore, it does not have the ability to detect or act against malicious traffic.
Lack of data protection
With remote work and SaaS applications on the rise, sensitive data highly distributed—often with little to no visibility or control.
Too much access
While traditional ZTNA fills some security gaps, it still grants users too much access, exposing sensitive information and doing little to slow the spread of malware.
Benefits
ZTNA 2.0: The next evolution in Zero Trust Network Access
Least privilege access
Applications are identified based on App-IDs at layer seven, which enables the ability to grant access at a sub-application level.
Continuous trust verification
Once access is granted, trust is continuously assessed based on changes in device posture, user behavior, and application behavior.
Continuous security inspection
Provides deep and ongoing inspection for all traffic, including allowed connections to protect against threats and threat vectors.
Comprehensive data protection
Consistent data protection across applications, whether hosted in the data center or the cloud with a single DLP policy.
Complete Application Security
Protection and security for applications across the organization, including private, cloud, and SaaS.
Managed services
Removes the burden of day-to-day administration from in-house technology teams.
