Anyone looking for an VPN service that makes the devices and applications they own accessible anywhere in the world
About Tailscale
Create a secure network between your servers, computers, and cloud instances. Even when separated by firewalls or subnets, Tailscale just works. A frustratingly complex and brittle collection of firewalls, rules, and holes while wondering if your network is secure enough. Devices connect directly, working from any physical location or networking environment. All without poking holes in your firewall. Devices only connect after signing in through your existing identity provider. Easily enforce multi-factor authentication, deauthorize employees who’ve moved on, and more. Define role-based access controls to restrict sensitive servers or authorize contractors to only see what they need. And every connection is centrally logged from both ends, viewable from a dashboard and logging API.

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
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 Using a traditional, network-centric VPN for remote access is not only outdated and difficult to maintain, but exposes businesses to security breaches.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.

CloudConnexa
CloudConnexa is OpenVPN's cloud-delivered Zero Trust Network Access (ZTNA) platform that also delivers core Security Service Edge (SSE) capabilities, replacing legacy VPN infrastructure with a fully managed, cloud-native service. Signing up provisions a private overlay network spanning 30+ global regions in a full-mesh topology for low-latency, redundant connectivity. Network and Host Connectors attach private networks, servers, and IoT devices, while OpenVPN tunnels (with Data Channel Offload for higher throughput) secure remote-user, site-to-site, and internet access. Identity-based access rules, integrated with SAML, LDAP, and SCIM, ensure users reach only authorized resources. Built-in Cyber Shield adds DNS content filtering, IDS/IPS, device identity verification, and 2FA. Domain-based routing cloaks server IPs for microsegmentation. It's all managed from one cloud dashboard, giving organizations scalable, zero-trust connectivity without running their own VPN servers.
