Telcos and ISPs Can Offer Direct-Routed ZTNA to Break Cloud-Routed Monopoly

By deploying Appgate’s direct-routed ZTNA in local infrastructure, network operators can offer a white-labelled managed service designed for lower-latency access, stronger routing control and clearer data governance choices.

This alternative to cloud-routed ZTNA can be commercially significant for telecommunications companies and internet service providers, as it allows them to combine connectivity, local enforcement, and managed security in one service.

A direct-routed model can help organisations control and evidence where access traffic is routed, which is particularly important for navigating precise legal frameworks in African jurisdictions.
