Purpose: The Cato Client is a lightweight agent providing secure zero-trust access to Internet, SaaS, cloud, and private-datacenter resources.
ZTNA: It authenticates users, validates device posture, and establishes an encrypted tunnel to the Cato SASE Cloud Platform for application-centric access.
Endpoint protection: The built-in Cato EPP scans files and analyzes running processes for malware, including unknown and zero-day threats.
Posture checks: The Client continuously checks attributes including anti-malware, firewall, disk encryption, patching, endpoint DLP, and device certificates.
Access response: When a device deviates from policy, Cato can limit access or terminate the user connection.
Deployment: Administrators can deploy the Client through an MDM or a self-service onboarding portal.
Always-on: Always-on mode can prevent users from disabling the Client and force traffic inspection by the Cato SASE Cloud Platform.
