Identity-Aware Access
vs. Network Extension
Secomea creates secure OT tunnels. Agilicus AnyX replaces the need for one.
Discover why Layer 7 precision beats Layer 2/3 hardware and software tunnels for modern security.
The Fundamental Difference
The choice between Agilicus and Secomea is a choice between Application Access and Network Connectivity.
Agilicus AnyX (Layer 7)
Understands Application layer like HTTP, VNC, SSH. Can block password stuffing, restrict specific URLs, and protect individual files. Users never touch the network.
Secomea (Layer 3)
Connects devices. Great for pinging servers, but creates lateral movement risks. Requires additional tools for application-level security.

*With Secomea, if a user device is compromised, the attacker has network-level visibility (ping, scan) of the target. With Agilicus, they see nothing but the specific web app authorised.
