What's new in GovCloud: July 2026 Zscaler product updates. Between mission demands, operational tempo, and evolving compliance requirements, keeping up with every product release can easily slip down the priority list. Here is a curated roundup of notable Zscaler GovCloud updates from July, with quick context and scan-friendly takeaways you can share across security, network, and operations teams. Highlights include Zero Trust Branch availability on a FedRAMP High cloud, enhanced DLP logging and channel-level engine controls in ZIA, business continuity improvements for ZPA, and the new Network Intelligence dashboard in ZDX. Zero Trust Branch, FedRAMP High Cloud Available (Limited Availability) Zscaler Zero Trust Branch helps modernize branch security and connectivity by bringing zero trust principles to branch offices, remote sites, and OT/IoT environments, reducing reliance on legacy appliances while maintaining consistent policy enforcement. This month, Zscaler launched a FedRAMP High-impact level cloud (ztbranchgov.net) for Zero Trust Branch in Limited Availability. This is a significant milestone for agencies and mission partners operating in high-impact environments that require the most stringent security controls. The new cloud includes various features and enhancements to support these demanding requirements. Zscaler Internet Access (ZIA) Zscaler Internet Access (ZIA) is Zscaler's secure internet and SaaS access service, providing policy-based protection and visibility for users wherever they work. For many federal environments, ZIA is central to enforcing acceptable use, protecting sensitive data, and maintaining consistent security controls across a distributed workforce. This month's ZIA updates focus on expanding DLP visibility and control, giving admins more precise, time-bound policy enforcement and the ability to reduce noise by scoping DLP engines to specific channels. Highlights * Enhanced Web Logs: Added Support for DLP Policy Actions and Justification Messages: Admins can now filter and view logs for DLP policy actions and DLP confirmation messages. New filters and columns (DLP Policy Action and DLP Confirmation Message) have been added to Web Insights Logs and Endpoint DLP Insights Logs, improving audit readiness and incident investigation workflows. * File Type Control Policy Rule Expiration: Admins can now set an expiration date for File Type Control policy rules, providing more granular, time-bound control over file type enforcement policies. This is useful for temporary exceptions or time-limited operational windows. * Ability to Select Channels for DLP Engines: Custom and predefined DLP engines can now be scoped to apply only to specific channels (e.g., Endpoint DLP, DSPM), reducing noise from engines being applied to channels unnecessarily. This option is available when creating, editing, or cloning a DLP engine under Policies > Data Protection > Common Resources > DLP Dictionaries & Engines > DLP Engines. Zscaler Private Access (ZPA) Zscaler Private Access (ZPA) provides secure, zero trust connectivity between users and private applications without exposing those applications to the internet. It helps organizations reduce attack surface while improving access experience, which is especially important for distributed users, mission partners, and hybrid work environments common across federal agencies. This month's ZPA updates deliver business continuity improvements for multi-cloud log streaming and a recommended software update with refreshed RPM packages for supported platforms. Highlights * Business Continuity Update: Improvements to LSS-based Log Streaming in Business Continuity now support log streaming across multiple Private Clouds. This helps organizations maintain observability and compliance logging even during failover or multi-cloud operating scenarios. * Manager Software Updates: A recommended update (Manager software version 26.54.4) was released, including updated App Connector and Private Service Edge RPM packages for Red Hat Enterprise Linux 8.x and 9.x, and a Private Cloud Controller RPM package for Red Hat Enterprise Linux 9.x. Packages are downloadable from the Zscaler repository. Zscaler Digital Experience (ZDX) Zscaler Digital Experience (ZDX) provides visibility into end-user device health, application performance, and network path quality. For federal teams managing distributed endpoints across agencies and field locations, ZDX helps identify and resolve experience issues before they impact productivity or mission delivery. This month's ZDX update introduces a new Network Intelligence dashboard that brings organization-wide network health visibility into a single view. Highlights * Network Intelligence Dashboard: The new Network Intelligence dashboard provides a high-level visualization of your organization's network. ZDX runs Cloud Path probes to analyze and identify anomalies in network health, allowing teams to understand underlying network issues across the organization. Admins can also configure alert rules to automatically receive notifications for Network Intelligence events, enabling faster response to connectivity disruptions. Conclusion Want the full details?

Zscaler partners with Schwarz Digits to deliver sovereign cloud security for Europe. Cybersecurity platform leader Zscaler has announced a strategic partnership with Schwarz Digits, the IT and digital division of Schwarz Group, to deliver a European sovereign Zero Trust Secure Access Service Edge (SASE) solution hosted on Schwarz Digits' STACKIT cloud infrastructure in German data centers. Now available across Europe, the joint offering merges Zscaler's AI-powered Zero Trust Exchange platform with STACKIT's sovereign hosting, end-to-end management, and operational support to safeguard mission-critical workflows in public administration, defense, financial services, and healthcare against sophisticated AI-driven cyber threats. By ensuring complete EU data residency and local operational control, the combined platform provides European enterprises and public sector entities with an effective framework to fulfill stringent regulatory frameworks including NIS2, DORA, and the EU AI Act without compromising network performance or scalability. Contextualizing the strategic importance of building technological autonomy directly into the underlying cloud architecture, Christian Müller, CEO of Schwarz Digits, explains: "Technological independence begins with infrastructure. Through this partnership, we are taking network security to a new level: we are evolving existing security architectures and focusing on high-performance identity verification. For our customers, this means even stronger protection against cyberattacks." Reinforcing the vendor's long-term enterprise commitment to data sovereignty across the region, Misha Kuperman, Chief Reliability Officer at Zscaler, added: "In an era of AI-driven cyber threats, a modern Zero Trust SASE solution is the only effective way to protect sensitive enterprise data. Our partnership with Schwarz Digits is a concrete demonstration of our long-term commitment to Europe: Together, we help our customers eliminate their attack surface and prevent the lateral movement of threats, while still maintaining compliance with European regulations through EU data residency. This enables the highest level of security while aligning with European digital sovereignty regulations."
