Description

Knocknoc offers advanced network security by dynamically orchestrating access controls at the network level and tying them directly to your organization's identity management platform. With Knocknoc, all ports and services remain invisible to outsiders, only becoming accessible when authorized users log in via your identity provider.

Unlike traditional VPNs or cloud-based security services, Knocknoc does not route your infrastructure through third-party environments. Instead, it seamlessly integrates with your existing controls to enforce just-in-time access, providing strong protection against zero-day exploits, unauthorized access, and continuous scanning or targeting, while being quick to deploy and cost-effective at scale.
