ZERO TRUST MADE SIMPLE
Why Zero Trust is the new gold standard
A zero trust architecture means no one gets automatic access—not users, devices, or apps. Everything must be verified first. This approach protects your network by continuously checking every connection, making sure only the right people and tools can access your most valuable data.
No more complex roll-outs
Enterprise-grade protection you can set up in minutes, not days
Rapidly deploy the full NordLayer platform across your entire network and toggle on the features you need, exactly when and where you need them.
BENEFITS FOR BUSINESS
Stronger protection starts with Zero Trust
Today’s workplace is flexible, remote, and constantly evolving—your security should be too. Zero Trust helps protect your people, data, and business by adapting to how and where work gets done.
Improves your security posture
Zero Trust limits access to only what users need, making it much harder for anyone to reach internal systems or sensitive data without permission.
Reduces possible threat surface
By constantly verifying users, Zero Trust limits data exposure and helps stop breaches from spreading or escalating.
Increases your compliance levels
Built-in tools like access monitoring, device checks, and enforced VPN use make meeting compliance requirements far easier.
Strengthens your endpoint security.
Zero Trust blocks harmful content and flags risky devices, even if users aren’t aware their device is rooted or unsecured.
Protects your on-site & remote workforce
Whether in the office or remote, Zero Trust encrypts data and secures access—so your team can work safely from anywhere.

NORDLAYER FOR SMARTER NETWORK SECURITY
Start building a stronger security strategy with Zero Trust
Getting started with Zero Trust doesn’t have to be complicated. NordLayer offers flexible solutions to match your needs—whether you're upgrading your existing setup or building from scratch.
2FA
Add an extra layer of protection to your device by enabling multi-factor authentication for logging in to NordLayer.
SSO
Single sign-on allows you to use one set of credentials to access multiple cloud applications.
Biometric Authentication
Set an additional layer of security with facial recognition and fingerprint scanning.
User provisioning
Automatic provisioning not only creates user identities in cloud apps, but also manages and removes them as users' statuses or roles change.
Device Posture Monitoring
Monitor your employees' devices and stop potentially dangerous ones from connecting. If a device's posture doesn't align with your policy, you'll be notified.
Cloud LAN
Share files endpoint-to-endpoint when multiple user devices are connected to NordLayer.
Network segmentation
Create teams and private gateways, each with their own IP, enabling admins to separate their local networks and grant access to certain data solely to those who actually need it.
AES 256-bit encryption
We utilize powerful AES 256-bit encryption to safeguard your data from cyber threats.
Diskless servers
NordLayer’s network uses diskless servers, which means we don’t store any data, so it can’t be accessed, copied, or leaked.
Credential separation
Instead of using personal credentials when connecting to the NordLayer cloud, our infrastructure employs service credentials, offering enhanced security for organizations.
Fixed IP
Enhance your network segmentation abilities and ensure your critical company resources are only accessible to those who truly need them.
Virtual Private Gateway
Establish a safe personal tunnel to connect and transport your encrypted data between devices, the cloud, and enterprise servers across the internet.
Activity monitoring
Soon, the centralized Control Panel will have additional admin dashboard improvements that will allow you to monitor and track user activity data much more deeply.

ADDITIONAL INFO
Frequently asked questions
Zero Trust security is a modern approach to network security designed to address shortcomings of legacy networks by transitioning to a model based on the principle of “trust none, verify all.”
In today’s world, workforces are more agile and distributed. Perimeter security is becoming more blurred, and as corporate networks become more complex, legacy security models are becoming less effective. The modern enterprise network spans multiple environments, including on-premise, cloud-based, and remote resources. Protecting these environments against cyberattacks requires the deep visibility and granular protection that Zero Trust provides.
Instead of granting unlimited access to corporate resources, a Zero Trust security strategy provides access on a case-by-case basis. These access decisions are based on Role-Based Access Controls (RBAC), where users are only assigned the access and permission necessary to deliver their job roles effectively.
Benefits of Zero Trust include:
- Enhanced network security
- Safer data
- Protection against new and known cyber threats
- Reduced impact from breaches
- Potential cost reductions
Zero Trust is a strategy or approach rather than a single product and is based on a number of Zero Trust principles. An effective Zero Trust strategy is one that enforces its principles consistently across the entire IT environment. Without the right solutions, this can be difficult to achieve and results in a complex and challenging to manage security architecture. Initial steps include:
- Designing a robust Zero Trust approach
- Phasing out of legacy solutions
- Defining access controls
- Deploying Zero Trust Network Access with other SASE (Secure Access Service Edge) components:
- Secure Web Gateway (SWG)
- Cloud Access Security Broker (CASB)
- Firewall as a Service (FwaaS)
Yes. You can use Zero Trust in a hybrid or fully cloud-led environment, although hosting an application in the cloud is now more cost-effective than a data center. However, these cloud environments are not part of an organization’s network, so the same type of network controls do not apply. This means that data is spread out across multiple sites, and visibility of who is accessing which data (and on what devices) is more difficult to follow.
To address these issues, modern companies are using several access technologies — depending on where their resources and data are located:
Data centers — When storing data on-premises, remote network access or business VPNs are utilized.
Private applications — A Software-defined perimeter (SDP) is used for data kept within company apps.
Public cloud — An inbound proxy or virtual firewall is used to protect resources in the cloud.
SaaS applications — For securing data within software-as-a-service (SaaS) apps, companies will opt for a Cloud Access Security Broker (CASB).
