Zscaler launched Zscaler Cellular, an AI-powered Zero Trust security solution for IoT and OT devices using cellular connectivity, eliminating the need for additional software or legacy VPN infrastructure.
Zscaler Cellular provides secure connectivity for IoT/OT devices by automatically connecting them to cellular networks worldwide, isolating each device in its virtual enclave and routing traffic through Zscaler’s Zero Trust Exchange platform.
The solution addresses security challenges faced by enterprises deploying IoT/OT devices in diverse environments, where traditional security models fail to provide adequate protection, resulting in increased cyber threats from security blind spots.
Zscaler is collaborating with global telecommunications providers, including NTT, to deliver secure connectivity for IoT and OT devices at scale. Zscaler Cellular will be globally available from August 2025, with early adopters like Maverick Transportation benefiting from enhanced security without additional software or VPNs.
