SMBs and Enterprises looking for a Zero Trust VPN as a foundation of their network security

About OpenVPN Access Server

OpenVPN Access Server is a self-hosted Zero Trust Network Access (ZTNA) and business VPN solution that gives organizations full control over their own secure network. It's software organizations deploy directly into their own environment — on-premises hardware or their own cloud account on AWS, Azure, Google Cloud, or others — with tunnel traffic flowing directly between users and the server. With Access Server Link, teams can go from zero to a fully configured deployment in minutes: point-and-click setup across AWS, Azure, and GCP, automatic SSL certificate provisioning and renewal, and a web-based admin portal for managing users, certificates, and access — no SSH or manual DNS work required. Access is granted per application and per identity using domain names rather than broad network-level access, so users only reach what they're explicitly permitted to, and lateral movement is structurally blocked.

Twingate
Twingate
The way we work has changed. People now work from anywhere, not just from an office. Applications are based in the cloud, not just on-premise. And the company network perimeter is now spread across the internet. Using a traditional, network-centric VPN for remote access is not only outdated and difficult to maintain, but exposes businesses to security breaches. VPN infrastructure is costly and time-consuming to procure, deploy, and maintain. Inability to secure access at the app level means hacks can expose whole networks. Twingate enables organizations to rapidly implement a modern Zero Trust network that is more secure and maintainable than VPNs. Delivered as a cloud-based service, Twingate empowers IT teams to easily configure a software-defined perimeter without changing infrastructure, and centrally manage user access to internal apps, whether they are on-prem or in the cloud.

    "Open Source VPN solution"

    Edited 2022-04-06

    Pros: Open Source.
    lots of customization options.
    Create your own VPN profile using free networks available on sites such as vpnbook.
    Also available as a service - pay as you go model.
    Cross Platform.

    Cons: Initial setup is difficult - creating profiles, installing certificate (at least on windows).

    Overall: If you want a dedicated VPN for your device - OpenVPN is a great choice; However the setup is a bit technical so those who find it challenging can opt for other free services (like browser extensions).

    PS. review is for the open source OpenVPN ( community edition )

    "Perfect for Internet Privacy"

    Posted 2020-05-24

    Pros: The software made the process of setting up a Virtual Private Network so much easier.
    It has a lot of configuration options available including the use of DNS servers, user permissions and more.
    OpenVPN has support that will help with any issues needed.

    Cons: It still requires a fair bit of work to actually set up the Virtual Private Network.

    Overall: I would definitely recommend this software to anyone that wants to be secure on the internet while using public WiFi.
