iboss ZTNA VPN Co-Pilot

The goal is to move from VPN to ZTNA to increase the organization’s security posture, but this can be a challenge because users rely highly on uninterrupted VPN access to do their daily work. A migration from VPN to ZTNA can introduce access risk during switching from VPN to ZTNA, as ZTNA requires a more secure resource access approach. In addition, end users have to change their workflow to access resources when working remotely.

The iboss ZTNA VPN Co-Pilot solves the VPN to ZTNA migration problem by allowing both iboss ZTNA and legacy VPN to work side-by-side seamlessly without interrupting end-user access during migration. With the ZTNA VPN Co-Pilot capability, end users can continue to use their legacy VPN as usual. At the same time, iboss ZTNA works transparently behind the scenes to automatically provide access to private resources while transitioning from VPN to ZTNA. Whenever the VPN is enabled, users will continue to be able to access onsite resources with no interruption as iboss ZTNA will disengage for those accesses while still maintaining complete security for all other accesses to the Internet. As resources are migrated to ZTNA, end users will realize they no longer need to enable a VPN to access them and can access them on-demand and automatically, improving the end-user experience while substantially increasing security and visibility for the organization. Once all resources have been migrated to ZTNA, users stop enabling the VPN and continue working as usual. The end-to-end migration from VPN to ZTNA is accomplished quickly and transparently without affecting user productivity while increasing the organization’s security posture. iboss ZTNA will act as a VPN co-pilot throughout the transition.
