Zscaler Unveils AI Innovations to Power the Industry’s Most Comprehensive Data Protection Platform

New Data Security Posture Management (DSPM), Inline email protection and Gen-AI security advancements safeguard data-in-motion and data-at-rest across all exfiltration channels

SAN JOSE, Calif., May 14, 2024 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) --  Zscaler, Inc. (NASDAQ: ZS), the leader in cloud security, announced multiple innovations to its AI Data Protection Platform that leverage the world’s largest security cloud and the power of AI. These innovations make Zscaler’s AI Data Protection platform the industry’s most comprehensive data protection solution. We protect:

• Structured and unstructured data in-motion, at-rest, and in-use
• Data across all inline channels including Web, SaaS, Email, BYOD, and private applications in both data centers and public cloud
• Data in SaaS, IaaS/PaaS environments, endpoints, and on-premises network shares
  

Data protection is a top priority for all organizations that must protect intellectual property and customers’ data from malicious insiders, accidental data loss, and bad actors. The problem is compounded with the expanding threat of new shadow AI, ransomware, and increased cloud usage. According to the 2024 ThreatLabz AI Report, enterprise AI/ML transactions grew by nearly 600% from April 2023 to January 2024, despite mounting security risks.

"There is an immediate and critical need for a consolidated approach to data protection that can secure all types of data, in all locations, while streamlining security operations," said Moinul Khan, Vice President and General Manager, Data Protection, Zscaler. “Great data protection starts with complete visibility. Point products create complexity and security gaps, and do not provide a full 360 degree view of your enterprise data. With today’s launch of the Zscaler AI Data Protection Platform, we are continuing our commitment to help customers see all their data and scale security protection to prevent leaks. By enabling data security across structured and unstructured data and all channels with our comprehensive data protection platform, organizations can replace multiple legacy point products to reduce cost and complexity."

Zscaler analyzes and harnesses knowledge from over 500 trillion data points daily across users, devices, networks, and applications. The power of AI and automation increases visibility to sensitive data everywhere, provides insightful context, and delivers closed-loop workflow automation. The latest enhancements to Zscaler’s AI Data Protection Platform include the following:
