It combines Airtel’s Internet Leased Line (ILL) connectivity with Zscaler’s cloud security and security service SSE technology. It even includes advanced security features like SSL inspection, cloud firewall, and cloud apps.

He said that India is at the forefront of new discoveries in technology and adoption of new technology. Small and large enterprises here have a strong position at the global level. But this rapid growth has also attracted the attention of cyber criminals, who are targeting local companies.
It has now become even more important for companies in India to strengthen their cyber security, especially when they face challenges like multi-vendor security, budget constraints, skill shortage and time limitations. The zero trust architecture of ‘Airtel Secure Digital Internet’ simplifies security management, thereby reducing the risk of cyber attacks.
This cloud-based security solution provides consistent protection to users everywhere. Additionally, its cloud platform eliminates the need for expensive hardware, leading to better operations and lower costs. To improve its network performance and reduce latency, Airtel has integrated Zscaler’s advanced security system into its Internet network and strategically expanded its Internet Points of Presence (POPS). .
As a leading Managed Security Service Provider (MSSP) partner of Zscaler, Airtel is now ready to provide managed services covering the entire security process. This includes everything from the initial plan to ongoing premium support services.
Now companies can enjoy secure and reliable connectivity across all their office locations using Airtel’s pan-India Internet Lease Line (ILL) connectivity. Additionally, Zscaler SSE can also be purchased as a solution and integrated with Airtel’s managed services to tailor it to their specific needs.
