The Government of the District of Columbia Consolidates Security on the Zscaler Zero Trust Exchange
The Government of the District of Columbia modernized its cybersecurity strategy by consolidating security on the Zscaler Zero Trust Exchange, replacing legacy VPN appliances and simplifying its security architecture. The organization faced challenges with outdated infrastructure that could not effectively support remote work, traditional VPNs that extended the corporate network to user devices and increased the risk of data compromise, and legacy security tools that provided limited visibility into threats. By adopting a zero trust approach, the government secured 15,000 employees, improved real-time risk awareness, and strengthened protection for sensitive data and applications. The platform processes nearly 3 billion transactions each month and blocks more than 200,000 security threats
