What is Zscaler Internet Access? #
Zscaler Internet Access (ZIA) is a secure web gateway (SWG) that delivers cloud native, AI-powered cyberthreat protection and zero trust access to the internet and SaaS apps. ZIA prevents advanced attacks and data loss with a comprehensive zero trust approach.
Why Should You Use the Zscaler Internet Access Connector? #
The Zscaler Internet Access connector provides visibility into the assets in your environment. You can use this visibility to:
-
ensure assets are managed per your security policies
-
ensure users are managed per your security policies
-
derive relationships between assets, users, applications, and data
How Does This Connector Work? #
Lucidum executes read-only requests to the Zscaler Internet Access REST API and ingests only meta-data about Zscaler Internet Access devices. Lucidum does not retrieve any data stored on your assets.
