Deploying Scalable Zero-Trust Frameworks
While ZTNA offers significant benefits for scalable remote security, Freudenthal notes that “for established, global, advanced networks, deployment will require careful consideration of employee access, devices used and connectivity.”
Freudenthal says that to help companies achieve ZTNA at scale, Fortinet takes a holistic approach, one that considers how to protect and control every access point, device and data. For example, users and devices should be screened both before and after they access any resource, whether the user or device is on-premises or remote.

“Fortinet’s Security Fabric provides a broad view of all things connected to the network; integration with the world’s largest and most complete threat research team, FortiGuard Labs, and with other solutions; as well as automation to detect and stop any malicious attacks,” he says.
Put simply, secure remote access at scale requires ZTNA solutions that balance permission and protection. “Companies need to ensure that security does not get in the way of day-to-day business operations while offering the flexibility to deliver secure access for both on-premises and remote users,” Freudenthal says.
