Leverage NetFoundry zero trust networking SDKs, Tunnelers, and Agents to integrate zero trust connectivity into your offerings and securely connect to your customers’ environments.

NetFoundry works with Managed Service Providers (MSPs) by enabling them to securely deploy and manage customer environments using Zero Trust Network Access (ZTNA). MSPs face challenges in providing secure remote access, especially as traditional VPNs have become less effective for managing the complexity and risks of modern networks. NetFoundry helps MSPs by addressing these specific challenges:

Challenges MSPs Face:

1. Complex Remote Access and Connectivity: Traditional VPNs require extensive management and configuration for each customer. They also open up potential vulnerabilities due to exposed ports and complex ACL (Access Control List) management. MSPs need simpler, more secure ways to provide remote access to their customers’ systems.

2. Cybersecurity Threats: MSPs are responsible for securing their clients’ networks and data, often across multiple sites and cloud environments. This task is difficult with traditional, perimeter-based security models, which are increasingly inadequate in protecting against sophisticated cyber threats like ransomware and unauthorized access.

3. Multi-tenant Management: Managing multiple clients and environments with different security policies is challenging for MSPs, particularly when ensuring compliance and applying uniform security measures across these diverse systems.

4. Scaling Operations Securely: As MSPs grow their customer base, scaling secure connectivity can become complex and resource-intensive, particularly when maintaining secure remote access for customers across various locations and devices.

How NetFoundry Helps:

1. Zero Trust Architecture: NetFoundry eliminates the need for traditional VPNs by implementing a Zero Trust approach, where every connection is authenticated, encrypted, and authorized, regardless of whether it originates inside or outside the customer’s network. This improves security by removing the assumption of trust within a network perimeter, thus addressing cybersecurity risks.

2. Simplified Remote Access: MSPs can deploy and manage secure remote access for their clients without complex VPN configurations. NetFoundry’s solution allows MSPs to establish secure, software-defined networks (AppNets) that ensure encrypted connections without the need to expose ports or manage intricate firewalls.

3. Scalability: NetFoundry is scalable, allowing MSPs to securely connect their growing number of customers and endpoints without significantly increasing operational complexity. This also helps them deliver seamless and secure remote access to cloud or on-premises applications.

4. Centralized Management: MSPs can manage multiple customer networks through a single console, simplifying operations and reducing overhead. NetFoundry’s platform provides detailed visibility and control over each network, helping MSPs streamline the management of policies and security configurations.

5. Cost Efficiency: NetFoundry’s software-defined networking eliminates the need for expensive hardware or complex network configurations, reducing capital and operational expenditures for MSPs, while ensuring that they can provide cutting-edge network security solutions to their clients.
