Zscaler, Inc., the leader in cloud security, today announced sweeping upcoming advancements for U.S. Federal Civilian and Department of Defense (DoD) agencies, including next-generation Federal Administration experience and FedRAMP Moderate and High Authorized Data Centers. These upcoming innovations address the government’s urgent modernization demands while fortifying national security against increasingly sophisticated cyber threats.

The new capabilities—powered by Zidentity, Experience Center, Data Fabric for Security, and OneAPI—will begin rolling out over the next few months and bring near-full commercial parity to federal deployments, breaking down the historical gap between public and private sector capabilities. U.S. Government agencies and contractors will operate more efficiently domestically and overseas, with improved productivity and increased security posture, while also lowering total cost of ownership. The Data Fabric for Security will drive unified security operations, accelerating agencies’ abilities to identify security gaps, detect and contain attacks, and streamline remediation and investigations.

Addressing Today’s Federal Cybersecurity Imperatives

Federal Civilian and DoD agencies face accelerating timelines to adopt Zero Trust, reduce operational costs, and eliminate aging infrastructure. Zscaler’s expanded FedRAMP data centers enable over one million mission owners across hundreds of Federal organizations to:

• Increase Productivity and Lower Costs: Modernize administrative operations to remove complexity, streamline workflows, and reduce reliance on legacy tools.
• Modernize to Commercial Innovation: Access advanced capabilities and features comparable to those enjoyed by private-sector—adapted to meet federal compliance frameworks and mission requirements.
• Unify User Experience and Integration: Deliver a seamless, intuitive experience across all platforms and tools, helping to ensure consistent and efficient mission operations.
• Strengthen Cyber Resilience: Meet and exceed the Office of Management and Budget (OMB) and DoD Zero Trust objectives while defending against nation-state and insider threats.
• Enhance Mission Readiness: Deploy secure, high-performance cloud capabilities globally to meet dynamic mission needs.
• FedRAMP Mod International Expansion DCs: Expanded international access to FedRAMP Moderate-certified data centers, now available in Zurich with Singapore and São Paulo coming soon. 

“As federal agencies embrace transformative technologies, ensuring robust data protection remains a top priority,” said a major government healthcare agency. “With Zscaler’s innovative advancements in Enhanced Data Loss Prevention (EDLP), Generative AI protection, and Zero Trust Browser, we’re able to safeguard sensitive information more effectively than ever before. These solutions empower us to efficiently leverage modern capabilities while adhering to the principles of zero trust, maintaining the integrity and security of the critical data entrusted to us, and reinforcing our commitment to protecting the privacy of patients and stakeholders alike.”

“The mission of protecting the nation demands speed, resilience, and innovation equal to the threats we face,” said Drew Schnabel, Zscaler Vice President, Government Solutions. “By delivering a fully modernized federal admin experience, Zscaler is closing the technology gap between the public and private sectors. Federal and DoD agencies can now operate with the agility of leading commercial enterprises—while meeting the highest standards of security, compliance, and mission assurance.”
