In 2007, our founders Jay Chaudhry and K. Kailash had a revolutionary insight: as enterprises moved to the cloud, the traditional castle-and-moat security model was broken. Legacy network security appliances couldn't protect users accessing applications from anywhere, on any device. So they founded Zscaler with a radical vision - the internet would become the new corporate network, and they would build the world's largest cloud security platform to protect it. They created the Zscaler Zero Trust Exchange, a platform that secures users, devices, applications, and data regardless of location, eliminating the need for traditional VPNs and firewalls. Today, with more than 160 data centers worldwide and trusted by 40% of the Fortune 500, Zscaler processes billions of transactions daily, using AI and machine learning to stop threats that perimeter-based security never could.
Built on a cloud-native zero trust architecture from day one, Zscaler enables secure digital transformation by making security invisible to users while impenetrable to attackers. Our platform combines advanced AI with massive scale to provide cybersecurity, data protection, and identity management in a unified solution. We've grown from a bold idea to a public company valued at over $30 billion, serving the world's largest banks, governments, and critical infrastructure providers. Our culture of innovation attracts top talent who share our mission to make the cloud a safer place for everyone, proving that when you eliminate complexity from security, you unlock productivity and enable business agility at unprecedented scale.
