Zscaler has expanded its global data sovereignty capabilities, built on the company’s Zero Trust Exchange cloud security platform.

The trade-off between protecting data and allowing global collaboration can be a major compliance challenge, the company notes. Zscaler’s approach is based on “fully isolated control, data, and logging planes – distinct layers and separation for management, traffic inspection, and record-keeping to ensure sensitive data never leaves its required jurisdiction.”

Newly added features include:

• In-region SSL inspection & malware analysis: Decrypts and inspects encrypted traffic locally
• Certified on-premises flexibility: Options to leverage Zscaler’s Private Service Edges to meet specific hardware certification requirements.
• Region-specific support: Dedicated technical teams to help interpret national regulations and configure services appropriately.

The platform also provides total data ownership, with “full control over encryption keys via integration with hardware security modules, ensuring only authorized parties can decrypt traffic.”
