The four elements of ZCP
scale, performance, and agility for enterprise cloud applications. Unfortunately, the same cloud
attributes that allow enterprises to move fast and scale have resulted in security exposures
and breaches.

The “lift-and-shift” approach of adapting legacy data center security to public cloud
environments is costly, complicated, and static, making it impossible for InfoSec teams to keep
pace with the speed of DevOps development and deployment.

ZCP builds on the Zscaler Zero Trust Exchange architecture to reduce the risk of moving to
the cloud while reducing operational complexity. The four elements of ZCP address the key
security and operations challenges that must be overcome for secure cloud deployment:

• Identifying workloads in the cloud and ensuring they have a strong security posture

• Ensuring safe application access for authorized users only
CSPM: cloud Secure Secure Workload
• Allowing workloads to securely access other clouds, data centers, and the internet as needed security posture user-to-app app-to-app access segmentation
management access for multi-cloud
• Mitigating risk by restircting an attacker's lateral movement
