About AppProtection Applications
When creating an application segment, you can identify the web applications that require AppProtection before users can access those applications. This is done by using various levels and types of custom and predefined controls in an AppProtection profile before access is provided. This provides another way to protect your applications from users that should not have access.
AppProtection application segments provide the following benefits and enable you to:
- Identify and select applications for protection against attacks related to OWASP predefined controls and zero-day threats.
- Configure HTTP/S ports and provide certificates for inspection of encrypted traffic.
When you define an application within an application segment and enable AppProtection for the application, Zscaler Client Connector access is automatically applied. This allows your users to request access to the application via any web browser that supports TLS 1.2 (with cipher suite ECDHE-RSA-AES128-GCM-SHA256) or via Zscaler Client Connector. Private Apps support HTTP and HTTPS protocols.
