Zscaler Branch Connector takes a different approach to the SD-WAN model. It starts with a Zero Trust approach to the branch office, using the Secure Access Service Edge (SASE) model. Leveraging both Zscaler Internet Access (ZIA) and Zscaler Private Access (ZPA), users gain access to applications, not networks. Designed to be deployed anywhere, from small branches to large campuses and data centers, Zscaler Branch Connector simplifies connecting your devices with the Zscaler cloud, the Zero Trust Exchange (ZTE).
