- Understanding of zero trust principles (NIST SP 800-207)
Zero Trust Network Access (ZTNA) replaces traditional VPN architectures by enforcing identity-based, context-aware access to private applications without placing users on the corporate network. Zscaler Private Access (ZPA) is a leading ZTNA solution that brokers secure connections between authenticated users and internal applications through the Zscaler Zero Trust Exchange cloud platform.
This skill covers end-to-end deployment of ZPA including connector setup, application segmentation, policy configuration, and integration with identity providers for continuous verification.

App Connector --> Internal Application
Key principle: No inbound connections are required. Both the Client Connector and App Connector initiate outbound-only connections, eliminating the attack surface of traditional VPNs.
Define specific applications or groups of applications by IP address, FQDN, port, and protocol. Segments enable granular microsegmentation rather than broad network access.
Policies combine user identity, group membership, device posture, and contextual signals (location, time) to grant or deny access to application segments.
Logical groupings of App Connectors that serve specific application segments, enabling high availability and geographic distribution.
ZPA supports clientless browser-based access for web applications, enabling ZTNA for unmanaged devices and third-party users without requiring the Client Connector.
