Cato’s Zero Trust Network Access (ZTNA) offers certain features specially designed for Operational Technology (OT) networks and devices.Firstly, Cato makes sure that when users want to access their private applications, it's not just a simple "log in and go" situation. It's a whole commitment to what they call the Zero Trust framework. This basically means that they don't trust anything or anyone by default, and every user and device has to earn their access, making it super secure.Cato lets you get really specific about who gets access to what. You can set up access rules in detail: defining the least privileged access rules so that data leaks and threats have no room. This is a big deal because it dramatically cuts down the chances of someone doing something they shouldn’t.But it doesn't stop there. Every time there's a session, which is basically every time someone connects to something, Cato's got this continuous deep content inspection thing going on. It’s like having a cyber-security superhero that checks everything in real time. This way, sensitive data doesn’t accidentally leak out, and it keeps all those nasty threats at bay.And get this, their security isn’t just for the usual network traffic. It covers everything – even the traffic to and from the big, wide Internet. So, whether you're dealing with your internal network or reaching out to the vast online world, Cato's got your back, making sure every interaction is secure.So, in a nutshell, Cato's ZTNA isn’t just a solution; it's like having a cyber guardian who's always on the lookout, making sure your OT networks and devices are a fortress against the ever-evolving cyber threats.
