The CISO’s Guide: From VPN replacement to comprehensive ZTNA
Legacy VPNs introduce significant security risks by exposing internal networks to the internet and enabling lateral movement once attackers gain access. This whitepaper explores how organizations can transition to a zero trust architecture by replacing legacy hardware with a cloud-native approach.
By shifting to identity-based access, organizations can reduce their attack surface, improve user performance, and simplify IT operations.
Key takeaways:
- Eliminate the internet-exposed attack surface and lateral threat movement.
- Provide fast, direct-to-app connectivity without backhauling traffic.
- Implement granular, least-privilege access based on identity and context.
- Reduce operational costs by removing physical VPN concentrators.
