Features, pricing, ratings, and pros and cons, compared head to head.
Goldilock TruAirgap™ is a commercial network access control tool by Goldilock. HENZ Authus 802.1X is a commercial network access control tool by HENZ ICT. Compare features, ratings, integrations, and community reviews side by side to find the best network access control fit for your security stack. Independent and vendor-neutral: we never sell rankings.
Based on our analysis of NIST CSF 2.0 coverage, core features, integrations, company size fit, here is our conclusion:
Enterprise and mid-market teams protecting critical infrastructure or handling high-stakes third-party access will value Goldilock TruAirgap™ for its physical, out-of-band isolation that survives network compromise. The 12-port Layer 1 switching with non-IP management and SMS-based authentication means an attacker controlling your production network cannot flip a port without a separate, parallel command channel. The tool strengthens PR.IR capabilities by design; it's weak on RS.MI, so pair it with incident response automation rather than expecting TruAirgap™ to contain lateral movement on its own. Skip this if your threats are primarily application-layer or you lack dedicated infrastructure staff to manage per-port scheduling.
