Secure Your Workloads with Identity-First Connectivity From the developers of OpenZiti

Stop wasting time on site-to-site VPNs and never-ending firewall rule changes.

Workload deployments Create Risk and Operational Headaches

  • Risky IP connectivity occurs before session authentication and authorization
  • Constant firewall rule changes
  • APIs exposed to entire internet
  • VPNs give excessive remote access
Firewalls, site-to-site VPNs, Cloud Connectors leave APIs exposed, allow lateral movement across VPN, and leave networks open to attack

WAFs & API Gateways

  • Can’t detect a good inbound connection from a bad one.
  • No identity associated with connections.

VPNs

  • Painful to operate and lack fine-grained access control.
  • Especially if the VPN isn’t fully under your management.

SASEs

  • Only track identity inside WAN.
  • Require WAFs and VPNs for higher-risk 3rd-party and external connections.

15 billion devices on the internet can connect to, scan, and exploit your attack surface.

Identity-First Connectivityis Simple and Secure

  • All endpoints authenticated and authorized before any IP connectivity
  • Embed Zero Trust connectivity into your workloads
  • Accelerate your deployments
  • Protect your attack surface
Identity-defined connections between services and APIs, MCP Servers, AI agents , networks and cloud services.

Zero Trust Workload Connectivity

Identity-based Mutual TLS

  • Each connection is secured from the start.
  • Each is associated with specific identities.

Outbound-Only Connections

  • No VPNs to set up.
  • No inbound ports to open on your firewalls.
  • No ports visible to an external attacker.

Software-based Network Overlay

  • Distributed routing infrastructure networks with enterprise SLAs
  • Hosted by you or NetFoundry (100+ PoPs)

Simple to deploy, simple to operate, and eliminates 99.99% of exploitation risk

Compelling Use Cases

Cloud services, on-prem software, OT, and IOT/Edge are safely connected, while attackers are completely isolated and unconnected.

Universal Segmentation with Less Risk at Lower Cost

  • Simpler, safer segmentation and micro-segmentation
  • No VPN or ongoing firewall updates
  • Zero-trust access based on identities and services

Replaces VPNs — Easier Management and Less Risk

  • Least-privilege network access by identity and service, not port and IP – denying all by default
  • Simplified operations – easy micro segmentation
  • Full visibility into connected traffic by identity and service

Onboard Your Customers in Minutes, Not Weeks

  • Simpler security reviews – no inbound ports
  • Faster evaluations and deployments – no firewall changes
  • Faster revenue recognition and easier ongoing operations
Clients AI Agents are safely connected with CDN, WAF, IAM, API Gateway, to API Endpoints

All Access Is Authorized End-to-End From the Start

  • APIs are completely invisible until authentication and authorization is complete
  • Less traffic to analyze
  • API traffic is associated with an identity — 
easier to view and manage
Post-connection lateral movement is blocked.

Block Lateral Movement

  • Simplified microsegmentation deployments
  • Control and visibility into traffic by identity and service, not IP
  • Zero trust access enables “deny by default” and least-privilege access
