Twingate offers a cybersecurity platform that focuses on Zero Trust Network Access (ZTNA) by creating direct peer-to-peer connections to secure resources, verifying each access request before it leaves the user's device. This approach helps businesses protect their resources, such as SaaS applications and cloud environments, by implementing granular access controls based on user identity, location, and device. Unlike competitors, Twingate features an API-first design that integrates easily with existing technology stacks, allowing for enhanced security without major infrastructure changes. The company's goal is to help businesses automate their security processes and reduce their attack surface while ensuring compliance with regulations.
