Why ThunderCat & Zscaler?
ThunderCat in partnership with Zscaler offers federal organizations a comprehensive portfolio of solutions to help them meet their goals, whether they concern cybersecurity, cloud migration, or data management and analytics. Here are a few solutions from Zscaler that service a wide array of federal mission and IT modernization needs:

ZTNA
Zero trust network access (ZTNA), also known as the software-defined perimeter (SDP), is a set of technologies and functionalities that enable secure access to internal applications for remote users. It operates on an adaptive trust model, where trust is never implicit, and access is granted on a need-to-know, least-privileged basis defined by granular policies. ZTNA gives remote users seamless, secure connectivity to private applications without ever placing them on the network or exposing apps to the internet.

Zero trust security is a big buzzword these days. While many organizations have shifted their priorities to adopt zero trust, zero trust network access (ZTNA) is the strategy behind achieving an effective zero trust model.

ZTA
Zscaler Private Access (ZPA™) is a cloud-delivered zero trust service that uses a distributed architecture to provide fast and secure access to private applications running on-prem or in the public cloud. 

The service provides access based on four key principles: 

  • Application access is based on context and should not require network access
  • Outbound-only connections make applications invisible to unauthorized users 
  • Application segmentation connects users to a specific app and limits lateral movement 
  • The Internet becomes the enterprise’s new transport network

ZIA
Zscaler Internet Access provides an alternative to the current bandwidth and routing challenges, and significantly improves the user experience while securing the traffic. It enables a way to provide a secure internet breakout for the remote user that will eliminate the need to send all that internet traffic back into the DoDIN through the VPN.
