Global gateways and secure multi-cloud on-ramps

Secure, high-performance entry points into AWS, Azure and Google Cloud, so your branches reach cloud workloads over the Hermes fabric, not the open internet

Why it matters

Cloud, connected securely

Applications now live across AWS, Azure, Google Cloud and SaaS, but most branches still reach them over the open internet, or by backhauling traffic through a data center first. Both cost performance, and neither gives you consistent security on the way.

Hermes global gateways give every site a direct, policy-controlled path into the major clouds. Cloud-bound traffic is encrypted and inspected in transit, takes the fastest available gateway, and follows the same segmentation as the rest of your network, from branch to data center to cloud.

Can’t find your answer? Our solutions architects are happy to help

A cloud on-ramp is a dedicated, controlled entry point from your network into a cloud provider, so traffic reaches cloud workloads without crossing the open internet unprotected.

Hermes gateways provide on-ramps to AWS, Azure and Google Cloud, as well as secure paths to SaaS applications.

Yes. Every cloud-bound flow is encrypted and inspected inline, with the same security policy as the rest of your network.

No. Each site reaches the cloud over the fastest Hermes gateway, instead of sending traffic through a central data center first.

Yes. Segmentation and access policy are consistent across branch, data center and cloud.
