At it, Zscaler announced “several key innovations in identity threat detection, and zero trust security generative AI and more”– all designed to provide better protection against hackers and inside threats.

They don’t want individual products that are not part of an ecosystem,” Sharma told CRN. “So from our perspective, adopting this is very easy for our customers.”
“In connection with Zenith Live, Zscaler also announced a new framework for risk quantification and visualization, Risk360; Zero Trust Branch Connectivity; several capabilities that leverage generative AI, including the company’s new Security Autopilot tool; and a new feature for “streamlined” administration, ZSLogin”
