Next Big Thing

Enclave Networks Limited, based in Newport, United Kingdom, specializes in cybersecurity solutions, specifically offering a modern Zero Trust Network Access platform that serves as a replacement for traditional corporate VPNs. The company simplifies access to private resources by connecting various users, applications, cloud workloads, containers, and IoT devices without the need for VPN servers, firewall modifications, or additional infrastructure. Enclave establishes private mesh overlay networks that operate under strict policy controls, ensuring that participating systems communicate on a need-to-know basis. By default, these systems remain hidden from the public internet, enhancing security by keeping them behind closed firewalls. Once policies are applied, members within the mesh can connect directly through automatic mutual authentication and NAT traversal, allowing organizations to maintain a closed firewall environment. This approach reduces the attack surface and makes infrastructure less discoverable and targetable, ultimately helping businesses and public sector entities address emerging cybersecurity threats effectively.
