Overview
The Cloud Security Connector (CSC) for AWS is an EC2 instance that connects internal AWS resources to Zscaler Internet Access (ZIA). The CSC for AWS lets you connect securely to Zscaler ZIA up to 3 Gbps without hassle. The primary purpose of the CSC family is simplicity. The CSC for AWS comes with all the configurations required, and it works with the Zscaler API. After launching the CSC from the AWS Marketplace using the CloudFormation template provided, the CSC will automatically select the best ZEN nodes, do the GRE tunnels and create the Location on your Zscaler console. All Zscaler ZIA functionalities are available, providing complete visibility of all Internet traffic. In addition, the CSC provides high availability, changing the default route to Zscaler when configured as a High Availability pair and an easy way to manage direct bypasses to trusted sites using your public IP. Includes Private Cloud Private Access (PriCPA) functionality that allows you to create a full mesh among the CSCs communicating your private traffic on a Zero Trust model. It is simple to install and completely manageable using Amazon Systems Manager, Rundeck (or a similar tool, like Ansible, Salt, etc.), and SSH.
Highlights
- The CSC protects your Public (ZIA) and Private (PriCPA) Traffic.
- The CSC is simple to deploy and fully compliant with Zscaler's best practices.
- The CSC provides automatic detection and configuration of the Zscaler Nodes, automatic default route selection for High Availability and easy Bypass functionality.

CloudFormation Template (CFT)
AWS CloudFormation templates are JSON or YAML-formatted text files that simplify provisioning and management on AWS. The templates describe the service or application architecture you want to deploy, and AWS CloudFormation uses those templates to provision and configure the required services (such as Amazon EC2 instances or Amazon RDS DB instances). The deployed application and associated resources are called a "stack."

Usage instructions
Access the Cloud Security Connector configuration console via SSH to the first IP of the internal interface (eth1, labelled: csc-gre-single-internal-interface), using your SSH key and the user: "cscadmin". Example: ssh -i <yourkey.pem> cscadmin@<eth1 IP> . All Configuration and Monitoring tools are available via menu selection. Alternatively, if you deployed the CSC passing UserData values and registering the SSM Agent, you can check the status "Running Commands" from AWS Systems Manager.
