Secure network access for remote teams
Use Cases and Deployment Scope
Perimeter81 provides us with a secure network to connect our team members to, primarily from remote based locations, allowing us to tunnel securely into other cloud services or lock down access to web services to a specific static IP (provided by Perimeter81). We use the Perimeter81 agent on a mixture of Windows, Mac and Linux endpoints, which then allows us to connect to one of the secure networks we've setup - it's easy to setup for new starters.
Pros
- Administration of network / tunnels is straight forward
- Easy to install for new starters
- Support for a mixture of operating systems
Cons
- Automatic agent upgrades - sometimes these fail and require a manual update
Most Important Features
- Secure network / VPN
- Support for linux (many providers only support Windows and OS X)
- Simple agent deployment
Return on Investment
- Decreased the amount of time spent on VPN maintenance
- Sped up the onboarding of new starters
