Zero Trust Meets Multicloud: A Guide to Secure Workload Segmentation Sakthi Chandrasekaran

As businesses migrate applications from traditional data centers to the cloud, they face new challenges in securing them effectively. The attack surface and potential blast radius have expanded, compliance and regulatory requirements have become more stringent and lateral threat movement is still unabated.

Much of this chaos can be attributed to the reliance on old architectures being extended to the cloud. Legacy tools like firewalls and VPNs were not designed to support the dynamic nature of workloads being spun up and down in the cloud. Workloads can span various infrastructure boundaries—cross-cloud, cross-regions, cross-VPCs/VNETs—making it difficult to provide consistent security policies for workloads in the data center.

As businesses continue to migrate applications to the cloud, the need for effective workload segmentation has never been greater. New innovations from Zscaler deliver a comprehensive solution that offers visibility, intelligent configuration recommendations, and robust policy enforcement.
