Case Study: Marico boosts security posture and user experience with Zscaler Zero Trust Exchange

Marico Improves Security Posture and User Experience with the Zscaler Zero Trust Exchange

Marico, a Mumbai‑based multinational beauty and wellness company operating in 25 countries and the world’s largest producer of coconut oil, faced an outdated, hard‑to‑scale security stack that limited visibility, compliance and the company’s open, innovative culture. Legacy endpoint tools, perimeter firewalls and VPNs made it difficult to enforce consistent security across development teams, support remote work, and quickly absorb growth or acquisitions.

Working with partner SEPL, Marico deployed the cloud‑native Zscaler Zero Trust Exchange (ZIA, ZPA and ZPA Private Service Edge) to replace perimeter controls with policy‑based, granular access to internet, SaaS and private apps. The solution delivered seamless on‑site and remote user experiences, simplified compliance across 25 countries, reduced management costs (now maintainable by a single admin), supported rapid scaling and improved Marico’s security posture by more than 20%.
