Agilicus AnyX versus Splashtop

Agilicus AnyX versus Splashtop

Agilicus AnyX is a complete Zero Trust Network Access platform, comprising authentication, authorisation, audit, access. One of AnyX’ core features is the ability to remotely use a remote graphical environment, via both Remote Desktop Protocol, and VNC. These are available via a browser, or via a native client, and incorporate Agilicus’ trademark simple, seamless, single-sign-on via your existing identity providers, for your staff, your partners, with optional multi-factor authentication.

Splashtop® is a means of providing remote desktop access for support purposes. Since it overlaps with the specific remote graphical environment feature in Agilicus AnyX, it is often the niche legacy platfom being compared by customers seeking to upgrade their security to Zero Trust, a comparison accelerated by the attack on the Oldsmar water treatment facility via TeamViewer (a similar tool). Below are some of the key comparators.
