CST VerdictBased on our analysis of NIST CSF 2.0 coverage, core features, integrations, company size fit, here is our conclusion:
Teams protecting OT and ICS environments without the luxury of deploying agents will find Agilicus solves a real problem: clientless zero trust access to PLCs, HMIs, and SCADA systems that can't run traditional security software. The no-inbound-ports architecture means your critical infrastructure never exposes attack surface to the internet, and support for federated identity providers lets you enforce MFA across resources that typically have none. Skip this if your primary concern is securing standard IT applications and desktops; plenty of lighter-weight ZTNA platforms handle that use case better and cheaper.
SMB and mid-market teams replacing VPNs should pick Cognitas CrossLink ZTNA for its zero-touch deployment, which cuts the implementation friction that kills most ZTNA rollouts. ML-driven access policies and support for legacy applications mean you're not ripping out infrastructure to get zero trust working, just redirecting traffic through identity controls. Skip this if you need deep API-first architecture; CrossLink prioritizes ease of deployment over the policy granularity that enterprise security teams with mature identity programs demand.
