Cradlepoint unveils Zero Trust Network Access solution for 5G, hybrid networks

KUALA LUMPUR, Dec 8 (Bernama) -- Cradlepoint has announced the availability of its third NetCloud Exchange (NCX) solution which is called Zero Trust Network Access (ZTNA).

In a statement, the US-based cloud-delivered long-term evolution and 5G wireless network solutions provider said that the NCX ZTNA ensured a native ZTNA experience that offered simplicity, efficiency, and granularity for Cradlepoint deployments.

Cradlepoint NCX ZTNA provides organisations with an easier way to identify, assign and manage user-to-application access using a fully integrated ZTNA solution, it said.

“Cradlepoint’s NetCloud Exchange ZTNA mitigates the risk of lateral movement by directly connecting users to applications instead of the network.

“It allows cellular-centric customers to take advantage of a ZTNA solution that is built-in to their Wireless WAN deployment as opposed to bolted-on,” said Cradlepoint senior marketing vice-president Donna Johnson.

Cradlepoint said its solution offered differentiated capabilities to support the expanded edge and extended workforce for enterprises looking to leverage 5G.

“Key capabilities include simplified administration through an integrated policy engine; deployment flexibility with multiple forms of network access; and isolated user-to-resource access through fine-grained policies,” it added.

Headquartered in Boise, Idaho, Cradlepoint has international offices in Asia Pacific, Canada, Europe, India, and Latin America.
