InstaSafe Secure Access solution provides an identity based granular access control solution based on the principles of Software Defined Perimeter (SDP). SDP concepts have been derived from the military, especially the Defense Information Systems Agency (DISA), where every device is pre-attested before it can ‘connect’ to the network followed by verification of the identity of the user using MFA leading to knowing exactly what device was being used and by whom to access the application. With the device & user’s knowledge, ISA is able to ensure that the device and the user are able to only ‘see’ and ‘access’ the data, that they have ‘prior approval’ to see or access – the ‘need-to-know’ access model. InstaSafe Secure Access (ISA) works by having a client agent on the user’s device that helps to connect the user to the controller, where the user is authenticated and the device is verified; and have an agent running in the data center to connect to the Controller and tunnel all user traffic to the data center applications. Using InstaSafe Secure Access, the privileged access of users to the servers and the applications is highly secured and prevents many different advanced attacks resulting in a significant reduction in security risks of applications
