It’s more than secure remote access: Get ready-to-deploy zero trust architecture

Zero Trust Security

Like ZTNA, Zero Networks Connect has no open ports to the internet. Only an approved asset (after MFA validation) can “see” and connect to the port.

Maximum Performance

Get maximum network performance with direct peer-to-peer connectivity via WireGuard®, the fastest open-source VPN with best-in-class cryptography.

Plug-and-Play Architecture

No other secure remote access solution on the market provides a robust zero trust architecture – when you get Zero, you get full network and identity segmentation in 30 days.

Bye, ZTNA Black Hole

Unlike ZTNA, Zero offers direct connectivity with no obfuscation, meaning that once logged in, each user keeps their IP address with no NAT-ing involved.

Segment Vendor Access

Automated user access configuration ensures that vendors can only access the resources they need within the network – something a lone VPN could only dream of.

How does it work?

VPN

VPN provides a direct, fast and secure tunnel between the user and the organization, but leaves the VPN port open to the internet and vulnerable to attacks.

ZTNA

Unlike VPNs, ZTNA eliminates the open port to the internet by hiding behind a cloud proxy, but introduces latency and higher costs because all network connections are routed through the cloud.

Zero Networks Connect
1

VPN ports are closed and invisible
The corporate VPN has no open ports on the internet–impervious to port scanning.

2

User verified by MFA
Users trying to connect are required to authenticate in the cloud using MFA.

3

VPN port opens only to validated user
VPN opens a port only to the authenticated user IP address–and remains invisible to attackers.

4

User access is limited
Policies allow user access to all or pre-approved apps or services.
