At a recent fireside chat, the focus shifted from flaws in today’s networking security to the importance of the NetFoundry zero trust solutions and Ziti Platform. Key points of discussion included:
- Why NetFoundry’s Ziti Platform for Zero Trust: Its ability to secure connections without traditional network boundaries and bolt-on customer cybersecurity software.
- How Ziti differs from ZTNA: A more comprehensive application security framework that facilitates secure communication and networking, not just secure access.
- Ziti’s applicability for all devices: Its potential to support IIoT, equipment, devices, appliances, and more through secure, direct connections.
These insights showcased how a modern zero trust network can leapfrog outdated networking and how zero trust can be embedded directly into applications.

About NetFoundry
Networking was once a barrier to app innovation and automation with dependencies on after-the-fact security and performance engineering. NetFoundry is shifting the paradigm in cybersecurity by embedding zero trust networking and security as code. Our NetFoundry Cloud solution embeds zero trust as software into apps, APIs, IoT devices, and other valuable assets rendering critical infrastructure invisible to the internet – and unreachable by potential attackers. It is the world’s first programmable, cloud native, zero trust network with near unlimited scale concurrency, and performance. NetFoundry Cloud represents a new art of the impossible by enabling developers, network engineers, DevOps, and cloud teams to programmatically control private, zero trust, high performance networking. NetFoundry Cloud is built on NetFoundry’s Ziti platform which is part of the OpenZiti project, the world’s most used and widely integrated open source networking platform.
