Endpoint devices like laptops and desktops often operate beyond the traditional security perimeter, exposing organizations to increased risks. Employees frequently connect to unsecured public WiFi networks. While VPNs are usually deployed to mitigate this, they come with limitations, including performance bottlenecks, poor user experiences, and the risk of being entirely bypassed. These gaps leave businesses vulnerable, creating a growing demand for more effective, seamless security solutions.
This evolving landscape presents a significant opportunity for MSPs and MSSPs. With businesses seeking better ways to protect remote workforces and manage endpoint security, there’s a clear need for solutions beyond traditional approaches. Zenarmor 1.18 offers an industry-first "Plug & Secure Anywhere" capability that allows native deployment directly on Windows (and MacOS, which will soon be available) devices.
Not to be mistaken for traditional EDR/XDR or antimalware solutions, Zenarmor can now be installed directly on Windows devices such as laptops and desktops. All of Zenarmor’s protective features and benefits are now available locally directly on the Windows device, eliminating the need to backhaul traffic via a VPN to an onsite Zenarmor gateway for inspection. This effectively secures the network traffic regardless of the user and device location.
In addition to endpoint deployment, Zenarmor 1.18 also includes advanced identity and access management capabilities, allowing seamless integration with popular platforms like Azure Entra ID, Google Workspaces, and Okta. Combined with Zenarmor’s multi-tenant, organization-focused dashboard, managing policies and reporting across multiple clients or environments has never been easier. These features enable granular user and group-based policies, offering unparalleled flexibility and visibility into network activity.
Moreover, Zenarmor’s software-only architecture ensures easy deployment without additional hardware investments. Its ability to inspect network traffic locally provides enhanced security while reducing latency and performance issues often associated with backhauling traffic through VPNs. With features like Full TLS Inspection and Cloud Access Security Broker (CASB) included in its SSE subscription, Zenarmor 1.18 is a comprehensive solution for securing modern, distributed networks.
By integrating Zenarmor at the endpoint level, service providers can address critical client pain points:
- Comprehensive protection for remote devices: Zenarmor eliminates the need to backhaul traffic through VPNs, providing secure, local network traffic inspection without compromising performance or usability.
- Cost-effective deployment: This software-only solution enables providers to serve clients who operate without physical offices or those unwilling to invest in expensive gateway appliances.
