Platform
The Zero Trust Exchange is a cloud-native security platform that
securely connects any user, device, and application, regardless of
location. Following the principle of least-privileged access, the
platform establishes trust through user identity and
context – including location, device, application, and
content – and then creates secure, direct connections
based on policy enforcement. The platform supports IT federal
mission transformation by reducing costs, eliminating the internet
attack surface, and preventing lateral movement of threats while
providing an excellent user experience.
