Akamai Enterprise Application Access Description
Akamai Enterprise Application Access is a Zero Trust Network Access solution that provides identity-based access to private applications without granting network-level access. The solution uses real-time data including user location, time, and device security posture to make adaptive access decisions based on the principle of "never trust, always verify." The product supports both clientless access for web applications and client-based access for non-web applications. It eliminates the need for traditional VPNs by providing granular, per-application access rather than network-wide access, reducing attack surface and preventing lateral movement. Enterprise Application Access integrates with existing identity providers through SAML or can use Akamai's cloud IdP for user management. The solution includes device posture assessment capabilities that evaluate device security status such as firewall enablement, operating system updates, and anti-malware installation to inform access decisions. The service is delivered via Akamai's cloud infrastructure and includes features such as high availability, load balancing, and automatic application performance optimization. It supports multicloud environments and can control access to applications regardless of where they are hosted. Access policies can be centrally managed and enforced consistently across all users and locations. The solution includes integration capabilities with security information and event management systems for logging and auditing purposes. It also supports local point of presence deployment for optimal in-office application access while maintaining consistent ZTNA policy enforcement.
