Modernizing your network-centric, appliance-based security architecture to a zero trust architecture can accelerate AI innovation and expansion. Every dollar you recover from retiring legacy VPNs, firewalls, and point products can be reallocated to drive your AI or M&A strategy. When your growth roadmap includes M&As, zero trust becomes an integration advantage, reducing the time, complexity, and risk of bringing acquired users, apps, and data onboard.The cost efficiencies you gain by investing in a zero trust architecture can free up capital to fund innovations that fuel future growth, strengthen your competitive posture, and enhance business agility. The zero trust payoff by the numbersOur new infographic helps you understand the economics of zero trust. Backed by real-world metrics from our customers, it describes how Zscaler’s zero trust architecture enables you to reclaim capital by eliminating the costs of legacy technologies while building a future-proof scalable risk management strategy. These zero trust cost efficiencies create a cascade phenomenon. For example, infrastructure savings lead to reduced complexity which, in turn, lowers operational overhead costs.On average, our customers have achieved the following results:90% elimination of security appliances79% security staff time freed up for high-value initiatives85% reduction in ransomware attacks279% return on investmentThe infographic highlights four specific areas of cost savings with interrelated benefits that build on each other: infrastructure savings, operational efficiency and simplicity, lower risk, increased business agility/productivity. Operating at the speed of business while staying secureThese real-world examples attest to the tangible business benefits of implementing Zscaler.Technology giant Siemens eliminated VPNs and firewalls by switching to zero trust access for 320,000 workers in just two weeks. Business Benefits: Technology expenditures slashed by two-thirds, a lean IT-to-user ratio of one full-time IT professional to every 25,000 users, and 3x faster M&A onboarding (from 18 months to only six).“We have been able to reduce costs for this environment and management by 70%.
