Privileged access for every system you run, from the browser.

Any system. One browser tab. Every session accounted for.

Linux and Windows servers, desktops, Telnet-era applications, network gear, databases and Kubernetes, all opened in the browser through one self-hosted gateway. Credentials never reach a laptop. Every session is recorded, searchable and attributed to a person.

No client to install

No passwords on laptops

No VPN for users

No agents on your systems

No unrecorded sessions

Connect anything

Open any system in a browser tab.

  • Users see only what they're allowed to reach, with live status, and open it with one click. No client, no VPN, no agent on the system.
  • Move files where policy allows: SFTP next to the terminal, and upload/download on desktops, every file audited with its checksum.
  • Your systems stay closed to user networks. Only the gateway reaches them.

One list for servers, desktops and legacy systems, with live status.

Control who and how

The right access, at the right time.

  • Sign in with Entra ID, Okta, Google Workspace, any OIDC or SAML provider, or Active Directory, with multi-factor sign-in for local accounts. Everything is denied until you allow it.
  • Standing access or just-in-time: users request a system for a reason and a time window, an approver says yes, and access expires on its own.
  • Credentials are vaulted, rotated, and used on the user's behalf, never shown. Command, query, file and clipboard policies apply as people work.

Grant access per user or group, and check the effective result before saving.

Work together, live

Bring a colleague into a live session.

  • Share a running terminal or desktop read-only or with full control, or share the recording afterwards.
  • Every guest is signed in, and full control requires their own access to that system, so sharing never widens access.
  • Everything a guest types or pastes is recorded under their own name.

Share live, read-only or with full control, or share the recording.

Prove everything

Every session on the record, and searchable.

  • Every session is recorded, with no setup, and sealed when it ends. Keep recordings on write-once storage if your auditors require it.
  • Search every command, query and keystroke across all sessions, and jump straight to that moment in the replay. AI review summarizes each session and flags what deserves a second look.
  • Watch live sessions, end one with a recorded reason, and stream every event to your SIEM, Slack or Teams.

Replay any session, with its integrity verified.

How it works

From request to evidence, in one place.

  1. 01

    Request

    ask for access, or use a standing grant

  2. 02

    Connect

    open the system in a browser tab

  3. 03

    Collaborate

    share live when you need a second pair of eyes

  4. 04

    Oversee

    reviewers watch live and can end a session

  5. 05

    Prove

    search, replay and audit, any time

Optional module: Ephemeral environments

A fresh system for every session.

Define templates (a container, a Kubernetes pod, a cloud VM on AWS or Azure, or a VMware vSphere template) and let users launch exactly what they need, just in time. The gateway creates it, signs in with one-time credentials, records the session, and destroys the environment when the session ends or its time runs out. Nothing lingers, and nothing goes unrecorded.

Security

Designed to fail closed.

  • Deny by default: every permission is granted explicitly. Even administrators need a grant to connect to a system or view its recordings.

  • Verified systems: a changed host key or certificate is refused and logged.

  • Credentials in a vault: AES-256-GCM, key kept outside the database, automatic rotation, or your existing vault.

  • Hardened sign-in: MFA, rate limiting and lockout. Disabling an account ends its sessions everywhere within seconds.

  • Your data stays yours: recordings, logs and credentials never leave your infrastructure.

How we secure the gateway
Deployment

Inside your network. Under your control.

Run the gateway on a single VM with Docker, or highly available on Kubernetes. Air-gapped sites get a complete offline package for x86-64 or ARM64. Users reach one HTTPS address, and your systems need only their usual protocols, with no agent on any of them.
