Direct-Routed ZTNA Advantages

AppGate's direct-routed ZTNA delivers fast, secure access without detours through a third-party cloud. By routing connections directly between users and resources, it ensures higher performance, stronger security, and greater control. This approach eliminates unnecessary bottlenecks and creates a foundation for scalable, identity-centric Zero Trust access.

  • Full control over your network traffic
  • Universal access control for all users, devices and workloads
  • Low-latency, high-availability direct access
  • Flexible deployment options for true Zero Trust architecture
  • Predictable pricing

Cloud-Routed ZTNA Disadvantages

Cloud-routed ZTNA forces all traffic through the vendor’s cloud, creating security, performance, and cost challenges. Indirect routing introduces latency, increases failure points, and adds hidden risks from multi-tenant environments. These limitations make it difficult to achieve the reliability, flexibility, and security needed for accessing critical resource.

  • Network traffic forced through vendor cloud
  • Network protocol and on-prem resource constraints
  • Throughput, scale, latency and hair-pinning limitations
  • Implicit trust of vendor multi-tenant cloud
  • Hidden or variable costs
