Behind one admin panel, DefGuard runs a WireGuard VPN, an identity provider, and multi-factor authentication, so every person and device proves who they are before reaching your private network. Administrators define VPN locations, assign which users and groups may enter each one, and enforce firewall rules that allow or deny traffic per location, with changes applied to gateways in real time. People enroll remotely through a guided self-service flow, register their own laptops and phones, and connect with desktop and mobile clients that show live connection statistics. Sign-in goes well beyond passwords, because the built-in OpenID Connect provider gives internal tools single sign-on, while TOTP codes, WebAuthn and FIDO2 keys, email tokens, and mobile biometrics gate each connection. Directory teams sync accounts from LDAP and Active Directory, or federate sign-in through Google, Microsoft, and custom OpenID providers, instead of maintaining a separate user list. Every authentication, enrollment, and policy change lands in a searchable activity log, and webhooks plus a REST API let surrounding systems react to access events automatically. Gateways keep enforcing access from a local cache when the control plane is unreachable, and several gateways can front the same location for failover. Running on a dedicated VPS on RepoCloud with guaranteed CPU, RAM, and SSD, full root SSH access, and a browser serial console. AGPL-3.0 licensed.
