Zscaler for Service Providers |
As blended threats gain publicity customer awareness is growing and the need for affordable, easy to use integrated security services is increasing. Furthermore, iPhones and other smart phones can access the same email and web content that is available to users on laptops, making mobile devices just as vulnerable. Service providers can differentiate their service offerings by presenting a premium service that eliminates viruses, spyware and other advanced threats in the network before they reach users.
Traditional security gateways are not designed to scale and handle the performance needs of service providers. Zscaler can handle 10Gpbs of traffic with 250,000 transactions per second. With Zscaler, service providers don’t need to acquire, deploy, or manage any hardware or software. They simply route traffic to the Zscaler global security network and Zscaler does the rest. Additionally our revenue share model makes it easy to get started without any investments. Whether it is residential broadband, managed network services for businesses, or mobile devices, Service Providers can now offer branded revenue-bearing network-based security.

To increase margins and reduce customer churn, service providers can differentiate by offering premium services such as “clean” network-based security protection and parental controls that allows family-friendly email and web surfing protection, as well as time-of-day curfews to limit online gaming and social network sites.
| Cloud-Based Services: Security and Parental-Controls |
| To increase margins and reduce customer churn, Service Providers can differentiate by offering premium services such as “clean” network based security protection and parental controls that allows family-friendly email and web surfing protection as well as time-of-day curfews to limit online gaming and social network sites. To ensure customer satisfaction, these services need to go far beyond a simple list of already-known phishing sites and viruses. |
| |
| As Easy for Users as Getting an Email Account |
| While users and families are aware of online threats, they will only sign up for services that offer value at low cost and are as easy to set up as email. Cloud based security services are set up with a few online clicks and do not require the high cost of sales and support related to offering traditional PC security software. |
| |
| Online Threats Are Evolving and Publicity is Rapidly Increasing Consumer Awareness |
| Users need more than the standard list of already-known virus and spyware signatures offered by PC based security software. Users expect protection from zero-day viruses and spyware which are not already known as well as protection from uncontrolled user generated content at sites such as MySpace, Facebook and eBay. |
| |
| Massive Scalability Enables Cost-Effective Platform to Support Millions of Users |
| Rather than attempt to repackage and artificially reposition traditional security server software as a cloud based platform, Zscaler has invested two years to develop a completely new technology platform that scales to support millions of users with no noticeable latency added to transactions. |
| |
| High Margin Business Model with No CAPEX Required |
| With a simple UI that allows users to sign-up online and self-manage their settings, Service Providers can offer premium services with high-margin recurring monthly revenues without adding sales or support resources. With Zscaler, there is a revenue-share business model no equipment to buy and no software license to buy. |
| |
| Network Deployment Models |
| Depending on the size of the Service Provider network, the Zscaler platform can be deployed in the network or traffic can be directed to the existing Zscaler global security cloud. Zscaler takes care of software management and security updates, while the Service Provider has monitoring and network management tools. |

Small Businesses |
Today over 75% of all small businesses provide some form of internet access for their employees. Whilst internet security has typically been the reserve of large enterprise, in today’s connected world, the number of people online from small businesses now exceeds that of its big brother. With no dedicated access to IT security professionals, the intuitive and simplified management interfaces available within the Zscaler service make it the natural choice for service providers to select when developing solutions for business customers.

| To increase margins and reduce customer churn, service providers can differentiate by offering network-based premium services such as (1) security protection, (2) email and web controls that allows business users to block internet access to objectionable or adult content websites and selectively limit (by department or individual) time spent by their employees at online gaming and social network sites, and (3) Data Loss Prevention (DLP) which prevents confidential or inappropriate information from being sent offsite by employees. To effectively ensure customer satisfaction, these services need to go far beyond a simple list of already-known phishing sites and viruses. |

Mobile Devices |
Device-resident security software on mobile devices suffers from several fundamental restrictions including limited wireless bandwidth for continuous updates of security signatures and filters, lack of OS standards across devices, and the limited memory and processing power of the devices themselves. Zscaler’s cloud-based solution ensures that the value accrues to service providers rather than the phone vendors or device software providers.
| Cloud Based Security Services |
| Wireless Service Providers can differentiate their service offerings by offering “clean” cloud service that eliminates viruses, spyware and other advanced threats in the network before they reach users’ smartphones. The iPhone and other smart phones can access the same email and web content that is available to users on laptops, including uncontrolled pages on social network sites such as MySpace and Facebook. |

| Family-Friendly Wireless Smartphone Web Surfing |
| Offering cloud based family-friendly email access and web surfing will expand the mobile phone market to include parents who want to purchase a standard service that protects against inappropriate email and web content and can apply time-of-day curfews for their children. To ensure customer satisfaction, these services need to go far beyond a simple list of known website domain names and need to include real-time dynamic classification of user generated pages on popular social network sites such as MySpace and Facebook. |
