Menlo Security Named a Leader and Outperformer in GigaOm Radar Report for Zero Trust Network Access (ZTNA)
Recognition highlights Menlo as a multi-year leader for its continued innovation in clientless, easy-to-deploy Zero Trust Access with advanced data protection
MOUNTAIN VIEW, Calif., July 9, 2025 -- Menlo Security, the pioneer in browser security, today announced its position as a Leader and Outperformer in the GigaOm Radar Report for Zero Trust Network Access (ZTNA). This recognition marks a significant advancement over last year’s results, underscoring Menlo Security’s strong focus on browser isolation technology, continuous enhancement of data protection capabilities, and expanded support for managed, unmanaged, and bring your own device (BYOD) devices.
This report evaluates 28 of the top ZTNA solutions available across a range of criteria. GigaOm recognized Menlo Security’s dynamic zero trust access solution, Menlo Secure Application Access (SAA), for its secure, clientless architecture, and easy-to-deploy approach, providing a seamless user experience across all device types. Menlo’s flexible array of deployment models, including web portal, browser extension, or optional client, allows organizations to select the best fit for their needs, without the complexity or cost of traditional VDI.
Menlo Secure Application Access delivers true zero trust access to private and SaaS applications, combining network separation with a consistent, invisible security experience for all users and devices—without endangering internal applications. Key differentiators in this report include:
- The Menlo Secure Cloud Browser ensures users never connect directly to applications, preventing malicious content from reaching endpoints and blocking data exfiltration attempts.
- Role-based Data Loss Prevention (DLP) and data masking capabilities with context- and content-aware inspection, plus integration with leading third-party DLP solutions.
- Support for secure access by contractors and consultants on unmanaged devices, with zero-touch deployment.
- Sophisticated contextual access policies that extend beyond basic user/group assignments.
- File security with Content Disarm & Reconstruction (CDR) and secure file handling.
- Dynamic watermarking for sensitive content to enhance data security.
"Organizations benefit from Menlo Security's strong vendor ecosystem that integrates with leading cloud, security, and identity providers, enhancing overall functionality and interoperability with existing investments,” said Chris Ray, Security and Risk Analyst at GigaOm and author of the report. “A notable strength is its exceptional ease of use, with its intuitive interface, comprehensive documentation, and automation capabilities that focus on simplifying complex security implementations. This approach potentially reduces the need for extensive professional services and training compared to more complex alternatives in the market.”
The GigaOm Radar report examines 28 of the top ZTNA solutions and compares offerings against the capabilities (table stakes, key features, and emerging features) and nonfunctional requirements (business criteria) outlined in the companion Key Criteria report. Together, these reports provide an overview of the market, identify leading ZTNA offerings, and help decision-makers evaluate these solutions so they can make a more informed investment decision.
“Being named a Leader and Outperformer in GigaOm’s Radar Report is a strong validation of our approach to zero trust principles,” said Pejman Roshan, Chief Marketing Officer at Menlo Security. “Menlo Secure Application Access allows organizations worldwide to protect their users and data, regardless of device or location, while delivering the seamless experience modern workforces demand.
