Pomerium is an identity and context-aware reverse proxy that brokers secure access to apps and services at scale. Pomerium provides a standardized interface to add access control to applications regardless of whether the application itself has authorization or authentication baked-in.
Pomerium builds secure, clientless connections to internal web apps and services without a corporate VPN.
Pomerium can be used in situations where you'd typically reach for a VPN, but, unlike a VPN, does not require a client and uses identity and context, not network locality to determine access.
Pomerium is:
Pomerium can be used to:
- **Easier** because you dont have to maintain a client or software.
- **Faster** because its deployed directly where your apps and services are. No more expensive data backhauling.
- **Safer** because every single action is verified for trusted identity, device, and context.
- provide a **single-sign-on gateway** to internal applications.
- enforce **dynamic access policy** based on **context**, **identity**, and **device identity**.
- aggregate access logs and telemetry data.
- a **VPN alternative**.
Its not a VPN alternative its the trusted, full-proof way to protect your business.
