Story
Inside Bitdefender, remote access used to depend on whoever still had the latest file. That pattern is common in information technology groups working out of Romania. Network and IT needed a system that would still make sense after the original project team moved on.
Bitdefender uses Zero Trust Exchange from Zscaler as the working layer for private application access. Zscaler delivers cloud-native zero trust networking so users connect to applications without a traditional VPN or castle-and-moat network. The practical change is simple: remote access has a home, and reviews happen there instead of in a forwarded thread.
Nothing in this writeup invents a savings number. What Bitdefender gets from Zscaler is a durable place to run remote access and a way for network and IT to see the same private application access at the same time.
