Identity-aware access.
WHAT IDENTITY-AWARE ACCESS PROVIDES
Authentication and authorisation enforced before a request reaches your application.
WHAT THAT REPLACES
A network perimeter, or authentication built into every application.
WHY THAT MATTERS
Internal tools can be reachable from anywhere without being exposed to everyone.
WHAT IT SUITS
Internal applications Administrative interfaces Anything that was previously protected only by being on a private network
WHAT TO CONFIGURE
Which identities and groups may reach each application Conditions, such as device state or location
WHAT IT REMOVES THE NEED FOR
A virtual private network, for web applications.
WHAT TO STILL DO
Authorise within the application, on the specific record.
WHY
The proxy establishes who someone is, not what they may see.
WHAT TO PASS THROUGH
Verified identity information, which the application can trust.
WHAT TO VERIFY
That the application cannot be reached directly, bypassing the proxy.
WHY
Otherwise the protection is optional.
WHAT TO AUDIT
Access grants, periodically.
