Zero-Trust Network Access by User, Device and Group

Zero-Trust Network Access in ControlIT Secure Access & AD Anywhere and ControlIT 24x7 ITOps: every connection decided by user, device and group, nothing published to the internet. SaaS or on-prem.

One private network, over the internet

Access architecture: remote users, branches and cloud workloads dial out to one private network over the internet, ControlIT Secure Access & AD Anywhere. Private traffic reaches Active Directory and internal applications directly. Internet traffic leaves through ControlIT Web Gateway, where policy allows it out to the internet or stops it at the gateway.

What this actually does

Access follows the request, not the subnet: who is asking, from what device, under which group policy. A headline capability of ControlIT Secure Access & AD Anywhere, and included in ControlIT 24x7 ITOps.

  • Decided Per Connection

    every connection is decided by user, device and group, rather than by which network it landed on.

  • Nothing Published

    nothing is published to the internet, and there is no implicit trust for being on the network.

  • One Private Network

    it sits beside the private network over the internet, remote access to internal systems such as file servers, ERP, RDP, SSH and intranet apps, and your Active Directory over the same network.

  • SaaS or On-Prem

    hosted by Computer Port, or on infrastructure you nominate.

What changes as a result

  • Narrower access than a VPN that lands a user on a whole subnet
  • Nothing published to the internet
  • One decision per connection instead of a rule per site or per firewall
