Pomerium provides a standardized interface to add access control to applications regardless of whether the application itself has authorization or authentication baked-in. 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.
