You built the network. Now control who uses it.

Your routing, VLANs, and firewalls move packets — but they don't know who sent them. Access Gate is the identity layer your network was never given.
No agents. No rewiring. No downtime.

60%of OT breaches trace back to identity gaps
75%of OT attacks begin as IT breaches
99%of ransomwared organizations had firewalls and VLANs — connectivity tools, not identity tools

2026.

In the cloud, Zero Trust is solved. Agents on workloads. Identity verified everywhere. Visibility and granular access control.

×

On-premise, the LAN still runs on implicit trust. Low visibility, limited access control, no audit trail... when some of your most critical assets live there.

And the risk keeps rising. More remote access for vendors. IT tying into OT. Supply chain exposure. Compliance pressure from NIS2 and CMMC.

×

Your firewalls and VLANs were built for connectivity, not identity. They move packets. They don't know who sent them. And the standard playbook doesn't fit: agents can't run on legacy equipment, and network refactoring means a change freeze operations can't take.

Access Gate is the identity layer you were never given.

It sits adjacent to your existing network — physical appliance or VM — and builds a Zero-Trust identity overlay on top of it.

Week 1: install, instant asset visibility across IT, OT, and IoT. Week 2: identity-based access policies, every resource behind the proxy. Week 3: audit trail live, every session logged with who, when, and what.

The next time someone asks "who accessed the CNC floor last Tuesday night?" — you pull a log and answer in ten seconds. Not "we think access was scoped to..." A name. A timestamp. A session record. That's what it means to control who uses your network.
