Story
Inside Nike, identity operations used to depend on whoever still had the latest file. That pattern is common in consumer discretionary groups working out of the United States. IAM and helpdesk needed a system that would still make sense after the original project team moved on.
Nike uses Zscaler Digital Experience from Zscaler as the working layer for access control. 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: identity operations has a home, and reviews happen there instead of in a forwarded thread.
Nothing in this writeup invents a savings number. What Nike gets from Zscaler is a durable place to run identity operations and a way for IAM and helpdesk to see the same access control at the same time.
