Which connectivity service provides branches, on-premises data centers, and public clouds with fast and reliable internet access while enabling private applications with a direct-to-cloud architecture?
Zscaler Zero Trust SD-WAN is specifically designed to give branches, on-premises data centers, and workloads running in public clouds fast, reliable, and secure access to the internet and private applications using a direct-to-cloud architecture. In the Zscaler Digital Transformation Engineer curriculum, this service is positioned as the connectivity foundation that replaces legacy hub-and-spoke MPLS and VPN designs with cloud-delivered Zero Trust connectivity.
Instead of backhauling traffic to central data centers, branches and sites establish lightweight, policy-driven tunnels directly to the Zscaler cloud, where security inspection and Zero Trust access decisions are applied. This architecture reduces latency, simplifies routing, and optimizes SaaS and internet performance while simultaneously enabling secure access to private applications without exposing them to the public internet.
App Connectors (option C) are used for application-side connectivity in ZPA, not for full branch or data center connectivity. Browser Access (option B) provides clientless application access for users, not network-level site connectivity. “Zscaler Privileged Remote Access” (option A) is not the term used for this broad connectivity service. Therefore, the only option that matches the described direct-to-cloud, multi-site connectivity role is Zscaler Zero Trust SD-WAN.
