Smarter and more secure access with Akamai

AKAMAI ENTERPRISE APPLICATION ACCESS

SECURE YOUR BUSINESS

Akamai Enterprise Application Access by Performance Cloud

Users are spread across different locations, working on various devices, and accessing a wide range of applications. This makes traditional solutions like VPNs less effective, often giving users more access than required and increasing security risks. With Akamai Enterprise Application Access, you can ensure secure access, where only the right people can access what they need, when they need it.

Akamai Enterprise Application Access is managed through Akamai's Connected Cloud, offering seamless protection and high performance across a variety of platforms.
