Zscaler brings the Cloud closer with new Oslo data centre

Cloud security leader reiterates commitment to EMEA enabling customers with fast, secure user experience.

Zscaler has expanded cloud coverage in Oslo, Norway bringing improved user experience, coverage and secure internet connectivity closer to businesses and global companies in Norway.
 
Zscaler’s Oslo data centre, which brings 15 times more capacity when compared to the prior instalment, increases Zscaler’s cloud coverage in the region. Nordic customers can take advantage of a local and more reliable connectivity to the cloud and support their network transformation projects and mobile workforce.

  • Fast performance from any location with unlimited capacity
  • Local language capability and in country logging for a stream-lined user experience
  • Access to peering SD-WAN services with Zscaler partners to provide control over numerous locations

It’s very clear that the Internet is now the de facto corporate network as digital transformation is gathering momentum.  We are delighted to expand Zscaler cloud coverage to Oslo and provide our customers with the best-in-class security and user connectivity” said Matt Piercy, General Manager EMEA.

Our goal at Zscaler is to power and secure the network transformation by providing the essential security, while eliminating the latency, administrative headache and scalability issues of on premise appliances,” added Piercy.
