Trust
Trust nothing by default. Verify every request.
ArxLayer applies zero-trust principles to your internet-exposed surfaces, APIs, and agent endpoints. Every request is checked by identity and policy at the edge, before it reaches your origin, never trusted because of where it came from.
The problem
Network location was never a real identity
Once a request reaches your perimeter, implicit trust takes over. Anything inside the wall gets the benefit of the doubt, and exposed APIs and agents inherit access they were never meant to have.
Implicit trust by network
Over-broad access
Unverified callers
What you get
Identity-aware enforcement at the edge
ArxLayer evaluates who is calling and what they're allowed to do on every request, then enforces the decision before traffic reaches your origin. No private keys live in the enforcement layer.
Verify every request
Least-privilege by default
Users, services, and agents
Enforced before the origin
Versioned, reversible policy
Simulate before you enforce
How it works
Zero trust in three moves
Route your surface through the edge, define who gets in, and enforce least privilege without breaking real callers.
Front your surfaces
Define identity and scope
Enforce and adjust
FAQ
Questions, answered
- Is this a full ZTNA or corporate VPN replacement?
- No. ArxLayer focuses zero-trust enforcement on your internet-exposed surfaces, APIs, and agent access, not on internal corporate network access or remote-employee tunnels.
- How is a request's identity established?
- By the credentials and context on the request, such as tokens and claims, evaluated against policy at the edge. Network location alone never grants trust.
- Will tightening access break my existing callers?
- Not if you use simulate mode. Run new policy in detect against live traffic, review what would be denied, then enforce, and roll back instantly if needed.
- Does the enforcement layer hold any private keys?
- No. The edge enforces access decisions and holds no private keys; certificate and key custody live behind separate boundaries.
Stop trusting the network. Start verifying requests.
Bring least-privilege, identity-aware enforcement to every exposed surface. Simulate first, then enforce when you're ready.
