In the evolving landscape of cloud operations, a significant shift is underway: businesses are moving away from traditional VPN connections for end users. But why?
While VPNs have historically been the gateway to internal resources, they come with inherent risks, especially when connected to a client’s network. Users accessing applications via VPNs inadvertently connect to the entire network, exposing sensitive resources and creating security vulnerabilities.
A Superior Solution
To address these challenges, consider leveraging the power of Cisco and Microsoft. These industry leaders offer integrated tools to enhance application access without compromising security:
- Conditional Access Policies: Implement specific rules for application access, such as multi-factor authentication (MFA) and restrictions based on user location or device condition.
- Risk Compliance: Dynamically assess user risk to modify access based on behavior or context, preventing unauthorized entry with a proactive strategy.
- Zero Trust Network Access (ZTNA): Adopt ZTNA principles to validate every user and device before granting access, ensuring a more secure environment.
