Airtel Business has teamed up with Zscaler to introduce ‘Airtel Secure Digital Internet,’ India’s first fully-managed solution based on Zero Trust Architecture (ZTA). This cutting-edge platform is designed to protect enterprises from an array of cyber threats, integrating Airtel’s Internet Leased Line (ILL) connectivity with Zscaler’s cloud security and Security Service Edge (SSE) technology.

Built on the principle of “never trust, always verify,” the solution offers advanced security features such as SSL inspection, cloud firewall, and secure access to cloud applications. It provides comprehensive threat protection while simplifying security management and reducing costs through a scalable, cloud-native platform.

Sharat Sinha, CEO – Airtel Business said, “We are excited to partner with Zscaler to launch ‘Airtel Secure Digital Internet’ – a holistic solution for safeguarding enterprise networks. The cutting-edge solution will ensure that every internet interaction is rigorously verified, authenticated and authorized to deliver a robust layer of security that protects enterprises from evolving cyber threats. Together with Zscaler, we will offer a seamless and secure experience for businesses across India, enabling them to operate with confidence in today’s complex digital environment”.

As Indian enterprises face increasing cyber threats—79 million phishing attacks and over 5 billion encrypted attacks in the past year alone—‘Airtel Secure Digital Internet’ helps reduce attack surfaces and streamline security measures. In addition to its robust security offerings, Airtel has enhanced its Internet Points of Presence (PoPs) to further optimise performance, providing enterprises with secure, consistent connectivity across all locations.

Anant Nag, Area Vice President, India & SAARC, Zscaler, added “We are thrilled to expand our partnership with Airtel Business to create a solution to help the growing needs of our customer base. Cybersecurity is a critical business priority and enterprises across the market are doubling down on implementing zero trust solutions to keep their organization secured. The inception of this joint solution stemmed from the market needs and growing demand and we are looking forward to helping our customers in their cloud security transformation journeys together with Airtel.”
