Identity-Aware Proxy Community Version: Secure Access Control for Every Team
The door to your internal systems should never be left open. An Identity-Aware Proxy (IAP) Community Version locks it with precision and verifies every key before granting access.
An Identity-Aware Proxy sits between users and applications, authenticating each request against identity and context. It ensures that only verified identities reach protected services, no matter where they are hosted—on-premise, in the cloud, or spread across hybrid infrastructure. With the Community Version, teams get a fully functional gateway without licensing costs, enabling secure access control from day one.
The Community Version supports single sign-on, role-based access control, and integration with popular identity providers like Google, Okta, and Azure AD. It inspects identity before forwarding a request, letting administrators enforce policies based on user role, device posture, IP address, and more. Since it runs at the network edge, it provides a unified entry point for both web and API traffic while reducing the attack surface.
Deploying an Identity-Aware Proxy Community Version takes minutes with containerized builds or direct binary downloads. Configuration is simple: define access rules, connect your identity provider, and protect endpoints immediately. Logging and audit trails come standard, allowing security teams to track every request.
For small squads, it replaces the need for complex VPN setups. For larger environments, it scales to thousands of users without changing architecture. The open-source foundation means you can inspect the code, modify functionality, or extend integrations to match exact requirements.
Adopting the IAP Community Version strengthens authentication, centralizes policy management, and removes blind spots in application security. It is a lightweight yet powerful way to control who gets in and what they can reach.
