Zentera's CoIP Enclave

CoIP Enclave uses an advanced overlay network to bring the unifying power of a virtual private cloud (VPC) to a complex hybrid environment. Abstracting away details of the physical network connections, developers can enable unmodified Linux and Windows applications to communicate seamlessly and securely with hosts in other datacenters and public clouds – even those belonging to another enterprise. Distributed applications can be deployed in an afternoon, without the need to touch existing firewall and router configurations or establish dedicated VPN connections. Once set up, applications can be migrated in seconds. After setting up an Enclave, enterprises can:

• Deploy applications to a hybrid or multi-cloud environment without time-consuming network analysis and design
• Bridge hosts or subnets, even if no physical route exists
• Virtualize networking for existing on-premises applications

CoIP Enclave enhances a company’s existing security architecture by providing an extra layer with additional controls. The technology operates at the session layer in the ISO network model (L5), using but not interfering with the existing network and security infrastructure. CoIP isolates traffic end-to-end in encrypted SSL tunnels that are set up to support application traffic on an as-needed basis. The endpoint network can be locked to the CoIP Enclave; by requiring traffic to travel over the CoIP overlay network and blocking other traffic that comes in over the physical interface, the endpoint is effectively invisible to other endpoints, even on the same subnet. Solutions:

• Overlay for Hybrid Infrastructure. Because the security challenge is ultimately caused by disruptive applications, Zentera solves the challenge by providing an application-based overlay network that meets the Zero Trust Security model. Zentera’s Zero Trust Network is designed to connect and protect applications, regardless of their physical locations. Zentera’s CoIP Solution is hardware agnostic, completely decoupled from the underlying physical network.
• Supply Chain Access. Third-party users can only access what they’re authorized to access; everything else is blocked and beyond their reach. That is because Zentera’s ZTNs are overlay networks with complete micro-segmentation
• Overlay Fabric for Enterprise Datacenter Migration to the Cloud. Zentera’s CoIP Enclave™ solution creates a zero trust network that connects on-premises environments into the cloud. This virtual network fabric completely abstracts the physical network topology, forwarding traffic to the datacenter machine and provides connectivity back to the on-premises environments. This allows datacenter applications to be migrated without modification, and enables a running datacenter to be migrated in stages to minimize downtime.
• Self-Service Hybrid Networking Tools for DevOps. Zentera’s CoIP™ solution creates a Zero Trust Network that extends from clouds back to on-premises environments. This “Universal VPC” can be created and managed directly by DevOps teams, without touching existing on-premises networking and security settings. With “self-service” provisioning and automation, DevOps users can set up hybrid applications while retaining the agility and flexibility associated with public clouds.
• Overlay for Smart Manufacturing. Zentera’s CoIP™ Solution connects factories and platform vendors with a virtual overlay network that allows a remote platform to access data within the factory without requiring either party to fully open its networks. This overlay network is set up without modifying legacy networks or changing firewall rules, condensing the InfoSec and compliance process.
