Zscaler ZDTA Exam With Confidence Using Practice Dumps

When SSL Inspection is enabled and a user accesses a private application through Zscaler, the user will see a Zscaler generated MITM (Man-In-The-Middle) Certificate on their browser session. Zscaler intercepts and decrypts SSL/TLS traffic at the Service Edge and then re-encrypts it before forwarding it to the client, presenting its own certificate to maintain the security of the connection while enabling inspection.

This allows Zscaler to inspect encrypted traffic for threats and policy enforcement transparently without exposing the original server’s certificate. The study guide clarifies this mechanism under SSL Inspection details.

Zscaler’s Workflow Automation integrates with collaboration platforms like Microsoft Teams and Slack to send real‑time DLP violation alerts directly to end‑users.

Certificate pinning prevents SSL interception by validating a server’s certificate against known values. When ZIA performs SSL inspection, it substitutes the certificate with one signed by Zscaler’s CA. This causes the handshake to fail for pinned applications. To troubleshoot, an administrator should review SSL logs to identify handshake failures, which indicate certificate pinning issues. Logs will show the TLS negotiation details, including any disruptions.
