Zscaler Extended Data Center Access - ZEXT-DC-UAE - Secure Cloud Access - High Availability - Low Latency - Scalable

ZSCALER EXTENDED DATA CENTER ACCESS (ZEXT-DC-UAE) is designed to give your organization secure, high-performance connectivity to cloud applications and critical workloads hosted in the UAE. Built on the Zscaler Zero Trust Exchange, this extended data center access solution helps you deliver fast, reliable, and secure user experiences while maintaining strict compliance with local data residency and regulatory requirements.

With ZEXT-DC-UAE, your teams can connect to applications and services hosted in UAE data centers without exposing your network to unnecessary risk. Instead of relying on traditional VPNs or complex network architectures, Zscaler provides direct, secure access based on identity, context, and policy-helping you reduce attack surface and simplify IT operations.

• Secure, Zero Trust Access
  Replace legacy VPNs with modern zero trust network access. Users connect directly to authorized applications in UAE data centers, not the entire network, reducing lateral movement and potential breaches.
• Optimized Performance for UAE Workloads
  Benefit from local data center presence in the UAE for lower latency, faster application response times, and a better digital experience for users and customers in the region.
• Data Residency and Compliance Support
  Keep sensitive data and application traffic within UAE boundaries to support regional compliance, regulatory, and data sovereignty requirements, while maintaining strong security controls.
• Simplified Access for Remote and Hybrid Workforces
  Provide consistent, secure access to UAE-hosted applications for employees, partners, and contractors-whether they are in the office, at home, or on the move-without complex client configurations.
• Reduced Operational Complexity
  Eliminate the need for managing multiple VPN gateways, complex firewall rules, and network segmentation. Centralized policies in Zscaler make it easier to manage access and scale as your environment grows.
• Enhanced Security Posture
  Built-in security services such as threat protection, secure web gateway, and cloud firewall help protect users and applications from malware, data exfiltration, and advanced threats targeting UAE-based workloads.
