New: Check out Step Certificates, an online certificate authority and related tools (all open source) for secure automated certificate management, so you can apply Zero Trust methodologies and run TLS everywhere.
Zero trust improves security and eliminates the need for VPNs and firewalls by moving access controls from the network perimeter to the data and software you’re trying to protect.
The foundation of zero trust is the idea that identity, not location, is what matters most for security.
Identity-based access control lets you precisely grant the authority necessary to do a job.
Integrating security at the application layer is architecturally simpler, easier to operate, and more secure.
Smallstep lets software teams securely connect and operate apps running across clouds, containers, serverless, and connected devices. Subscribe to our mailing list or drop us a line to learn more.
