Zscaler DLP Primary Use Case

Utpal Sinha - PeerSpot reviewer
Sr Network Engineer at Momentive

I use Zscaler Cloud DLP to protect sensitive data. It works by checking the content I'm trying to send or use on websites. If it sees any personal data or if someone tries to copy-paste it, it stops them. It can even notice when I use certain commands like "put," making sure my data stays safe. It watches what I'm doing online to keep my data secure.
Zscaler Cloud DLP integrates with Microsoft Defender to improve its abilities. This integration allows Zscaler to access data from Microsoft Defender, helping it track timestamps and offer strong protection for DLP events. This partnership between Zscaler and Microsoft Defender is a valuable addition that boosts DLP measures and enhances data protection.

I use Zscaler Cloud DLP since my company's clients use Zscaler Cloud Proxy in their environments. I deal with Zscaler Cloud DLP since it meets the requirements of my company's clients and helps to manage data breaches. In general, my company takes care of the configuration part of Zscaler Cloud DLP and provides it to our company's clients as a service.

Unlike unconventional data that's being exposed, data loss prevention can become very difficult. Several of the old technologies, such as Symantec and McAfee, can cause a range of problems. On top of that, it derives from a lot of fines for customer loss. You can go through legal ramifications and damage to your company brand when data is exposed. Zscaler creates a significant bypass of security controls. It helps you with your compliance. Basically, it will then help you protect sensitive data.

Zscaler's Cloud DLP will also assist the users off-network, protecting them against data loss. The Cloud DLP will inspect all the traffic including SSL, which will give you protection and visibility. Zscaler Cloud DLP will also allow for compliance. It'll give you compliance for all major regulations that you have to go through.

There's a different mechanism and modules. For example,  ZIA is primarily for internet access from the user's side. We can forward the traffic using the ZIA client connector agent installed on user machines like laptops and desktops. 

Users can log in using their credentials and even use single sign-on. Once logged in, their traffic is forwarded to the Zscaler cloud. 

Based on the user profile, we can define policies on what type of content they can access, like streaming or specific file types. It provides data protection as well. 

Alternatively, there's another configuration. If we can't install an agent, we can forward traffic using a PAC file URL to Zscaler servers.

We use the solution to build zero-trust networks. We use it to block everything except the trusted URLs. We get a bunch of URLs from the customers, whitelist them in the solution, and everything else is blocked automatically.

An URL must be whitelisted for users to access it. When a customer tells us they need a particular URL, we analyze it and send it for approval. Once it is approved, we whitelist the URL for the user. The solution is useful for zero-trust and DLP.

It pretty much covers, like, if you implement it, it's going to cover, like, 80 to 90% of real estate for the organization.

We are resellers and we have multiple vendors for multiple technologies.

We work with Zscaler for their proxy server.

Zscaler proxy server has two uses. It is not just application control, it is for the company users to access company data from the outside, or for the company users from inside the company to access the internet.

It's a completely SaaS-based application.

The use case is employing data, PII, and even HIPAA. I do public sector work for hospitals, counties, and local governments.

I am using the latest version of Zscaler Cloud DLP. I'm a licensed installer—a subcontractor. I do a lot of installs for different companies and retailers, and one company that I do in Salesforce. There are probably 20 or 30 instances of it that I'm actively involved in at any given moment.

The solution is deployed on Zscaler's private cloud.

I use Zscaler Cloud DLP for its DLP features. It gives you all the basic features such as keywords, regular expressions, data identifiers, etc., but the only difference is that you can only apply the DLP policies to web traffic.
