Pomerium provides a standardized interface to add access control to applications regardless of whether the application itself has authorization or authentication baked-in. Pomerium gateways both internal and external requests, and can be used in situations where you'd typically reach for a VPN. Pomerium can be used to: - 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**. ## Docs For comprehensive docs, and tutorials see our [documentation].
