Identity-Aware Access
vs. Hardware-Bound VPN Keys
Tosibox relies on proprietary hardware keys and vulnerable client software. Agilicus AnyX replaces the need for both.
Discover why Layer 7 precision beats Layer 3 connectivity for modern security.
The Fundamental Difference
The choice between Agilicus and Tosibox is a choice between Application Access and legacy hardware-bound VPNs.
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.
Tosibox (Layer 3)
Connects networks via physical hardware Locks and USB Keys. Grants broad network adjacency. Relying on installed client software introduces endpoint risks like CVE-2024-58315.

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