Zero Touch in SecureEdge
Zero Touch Deployment (ZTD) in SecureEdge allows organizations to deploy appliances remotely with minimal or no on-site setup. When powered and connected to the Internet, a device authenticates to the Zero Touch Deployment service, downloads its configuration and certificates, applies security policies, and reports as an active Site appliance. The appliance applies the configuration automatically on first boot. This removes manual setup, reduces errors, speeds rollouts, and ensures consistent security across distributed sites (branches, home offices, retail outlets).
