Zscaler Client Connector
Zscaler Client Connector™ is a lightweight agent for user endpoints, enabling hybrid work through secure, fast, reliable access to any app over any network.
Zscaler Client Connector is included as part of the Zscaler Internet Access™ (ZIA™) and Zscaler Private Access™ (ZPA™) services. Client Connector is a lightweight application that runs on a user’s endpoint device. Client Connector automatically forwards all user traffic to the closest Zscaler service edge—one of more than 150 around the globe— ensuring that security and access policies are enforced across all devices, locations, and applications. Zscaler Client Connector automatically determines if a user is looking to access the web, a SaaS app, or an internal app, and then routes traffic to the appropriate Zscaler service.
Product Details
A seamless access experience for end-users: Users can access business-critical applications from any device, without pausing to think about what access method is required. There’s no VPN to spin up each time the user connects to a new network, and the connector integrates with identity and multifactor authentication (MFA) providers for a frictionless experience. Zscaler Client Connector automatically forwards traffic to the Zscaler service edge location that is closest to the user, ensuring access is brought as close to the user as possible resulting in quick, secure access to the internet, SaaS, and internal applications. With Client Connector, there’s no need for PAC files, an IPsec VPN, authentication cookies, or any extra end-user steps.
Visibility and control for IT teams: For the first time, IT teams are empowered through enriched insight and management over device data through the Zscaler Client Connector administration portal. They receive additional insight into business app performance, network performance, and device performance with Zscaler Digital Experience (which integrates with Client Connector). This integration makes a variety of valuable metrics available to the IT admins and service desk professionals who need them.
