  • Cloud Access Security Broker to manage SaaS apps and prevent shadow IT.
  • Inline traffic inspection and controls.
  • Highly customizable policies.
Cons
  • Given all of the features Zscaler Internet Access bundles (firewall, CASB, URL filter, DLP, etc...) it makes the console somewhat cumbersome. Anyone planning to utilize Zscaler Internet Access should be prepared to invest time in training or seek out professional services.
  • In some cases, the app risk index ratings do not include enough criteria to effectively assess an applications risk exposure. Adding more criteria or allowing customers to add their own would be a welcomed feature.
