Zero Trust Access
Legacy VPN grants broad network access to anyone who authenticates. ZTNA grants access only to the specific application the user needs — verified per session, with device posture checked every time.
Common challenges
- Legacy VPN with implicit broad-network trust
- No per-application access control for internal apps
- Inconsistent device posture checks at connection time
- Limited session visibility and no continuous verification
- Third-party and contractor access sprawl
Business risk
A compromised VPN credential is a pass to the entire network. ZTNA limits the blast radius of any single compromised account to a single application — nothing beyond it.
How Mitigence helps
- 1Current-state assessment — audit VPN architecture, access policies, and trust model
- 2ZTNA architecture design — define application segments, identity policies, device posture rules
- 3ZTNA deployment — implement private access for internal applications, migrate from VPN
- 4Configuration review — validate policies, certificate management, split-tunnel settings
- 5Operational readiness — access review cycles, third-party governance, session monitoring
ZTNA — Zero Trust Network Access
ZTNA replaces legacy remote access with per-application, identity-verified connectivity. Users connect to the applications they are authorised for — not the network. Every session is verified against identity, device health, and contextual policy before access is granted.
Private Access
Secure access to internal applications — data centre, private cloud, or hybrid — without exposing them to the internet or granting broad VPN network access.
Device Posture
Access conditional on device compliance — patch level, MDM enrolment, certificate presence — checked continuously, not just at login.
Least Privilege
Users access only the applications their role requires. Lateral movement beyond that perimeter is structurally prevented.
Third-Party Access
Grant contractors and vendors scoped, time-limited access to specific applications — no VPN credentials, no network-level trust.
ZTNA is not just a technology swap — it requires a rearchitected access model. Mitigence handles both: the architecture design and the engineering to get you off legacy VPN without disrupting operations.
