SCOUT Overview
SDSE's software-only, Zero Trust Network Access (ZTNA) platform, SCOUT, automatically applies user/endpoint-specific network policy and automates the PKI certificate management lifecycle process to deliver secure encrypted data transport and network micro-segmentation, authorizing only those users allowed by network policy to access other endpoints & resources on the network. SCOUT tightly, and easily integrates with existing services and other 3rd party solutions to provide the following capabilities:
​​
Single Solution to Address Many Security Use Cases - VPN, IoT, Mobile, 5G, Edge
Easily Integrate With Existing Endpoint, Network, Service, or Application
Eliminate Man-In-The-Middle Attacks
Ephemeral PKI Certs For Each New Connection Eliminates Legacy Key Managment
Reduce Security Operations and Hardware Costs By Eliminating Legacy Hardware and Reducing Administrative Staff LOE
SCOUT Agents Deployable to Virtually Any OS - Windows, MacOS, Android, iOS, Linux, RTOS, and Cloud Containers
Layer 3, Network-Level IPsec Based AES 256 Encryption
Lock Down Public Facing Networks to Prevent Unauthorized Access and Make Endpoints Invisible to Attacks
