Overview
VNS3 in AWS allows customers to deliver improved security, connectivity, and compliance while minimizing complexity. Our multicoud network controller can be deployed as a router, switch, site-to-site IPsec VPN, People VPN, firewall, protocol re-distributor, or any combination of functions you want.
Fully Encrypt ALL Data-in-Motion and Own Your Security VNS3 supports a wide range of encryption algorithms and connection parameters to facilitate compliance with industry regulations (like HIPAA, PCI, FIPS, etc.), internal requirements, or the demands of connecting parties. VNS3 encrypts all data in motion to, from, and within the cloud allowing you to control your cryptographic keys. VNS3 extends the capabilities of your Azure deployment by ensuring that all traffic is encrypted between your virtual networks, regions, and other cloud providers.
Unparalleled Support for Advanced Networking Use-Cases VNS3 subnets can span virtual networks, regions and clouds, easily handling the headache of address overlap. VNS3 also offers the advantage of BGP active-active connections, preferred peer lists, and our high-availability, instance-based IPsec failover add-on.
Customize Your Network With a Plugin Platform in Your Edge VNS3 is flexible and extensible; add SSL termination, load balancing, content caching, intrusion detection, or other network services directly to your VNS3 instance using our ever-expanding list of partner plugins including popular Open Source projects like Suricata, Snort, Zeek, HAproxy, NGINX, Varnish, Squid, OWASP ZAP and more.
Easy Implementation and Management Implement and integrate VNS3 with existing network equipment without any new knowledge or training for your developers and cloud architects. Empower your team to do everything from connecting a secure & flexible VPN IPsec tunnel to managing complex cross-cloud networks. Dynamically launch and configure your overlay network in minutes using the REST API, web-based UI, or popular automation frameworks like Ansible, Azure Resource Manager templates, or Terraform.
Connect to your existing monitoring systems using SNMP or Netflow and integrate to SaaS monitoring systems like DataDog and SumoLogic with ease.
