Network Security Made for IT Admins

The easiest way to securely connect to your company’s networks, applications, devices, and workforce.

Your company relies on your tech (no pressure).

Information and operational technology (IT/OT) runs virtually every aspect of business today. From human resources to accounting to manufacturing, the whole company relies on the software and systems your team manages. No pressure, right?

Is your team remote or hybrid?

Now here’s where it gets more complicated: your company likely has a remote or hybrid workforce, which makes it increasingly difficult to ensure that everyone can connect safely to the network and securely access needed applications. Every person and every device — including laptops, desktops, servers, mobile devices, and a variety of IoT and IIoT devices — present another vulnerability in the landscape of your network.

The IT admin’s priorities & challenges

We’ve been in your shoes and know how stressful your role can be. You’re likely juggling getting systems in place, answering IT queries (including the frustrating ones, like telling teammates to restart their computers), and getting security systems in place — sometimes without a very extensive background in cybersecurity. You know the technical elements you need, and you may be a Linux user in a Microsoft world who knows that data security matters.

You also may be juggling:

Maintaining network, system, and application availability, reliability, and security
Supporting an increasingly distributed workforce
Securely introducing new technologies without disrupting the business
Leading digital transformation initiatives, including cloud migration
Preventing unauthorized access to networks, devices, and applications
Securing workforce and associated devices connecting to the network
Guarding connected IoT and IIoT devices
Stopping threats from unauthorized use of 3rd-party SaaS applications
Protecting sensitive corporate data & staying in compliance with data regulations

Easy to configure options, add users, and that it has two factor authentication built in. You can configure the system to allow connections on common ports so that you're able to connect from pretty much anywhere in the world.
