Inbound ports your private apps expose to the internet under zero trust

0

A legacy VPN puts a public door on the internet and hopes the lock holds. InstaSafe works the other way. Your apps sit behind a broker and open no inbound ports, so a port scan from the outside sees nothing to attack. Access is granted only after the user and the device are verified, one app at a time.

Direct answer

The InstaSafe zero trust range we deploy

InstaSafe is a platform, not a single product. The access modules decide who reaches which app, the identity modules prove who the user is, and the console keeps the logs. Here is the 2026 InstaSafe product range, mapped to its job.

Zero Trust Application Access

The core idea. Each user gets least-privilege access to one private app at a time, in your datacentre or cloud. The app stays hidden behind the broker, never on the open internet.

VPN replacement and secure access

Retire the always-on legacy VPN that drops a user onto the whole network. Staff and branches reach only the apps they are entitled to, under one policy.

Multi-factor authentication

Device binding, biometric, push, and one-time passcodes on every login. A stolen password alone does not get in, which closes the gap most Indian breaches walk through.

Single sign-on

One identity across your SaaS and private apps over SAML and OIDC. Fewer passwords for staff, one place to cut access the day someone leaves.

Agentless access for third parties

Contractors, auditors, and vendors reach a single app through the browser, with no client to install. The access ends when the engagement does, and every session is logged.

Console, analytics, and form factors

A cloud-managed controller with India point-of-presence options, per-session logs for audit, and a clientless path for unmanaged devices. One pane for policy and reporting.

Right-fit test

Who zero trust access fits best in India

Cooperative banks and NBFCs
BPO and IT services with vendor access
Manufacturing with remote plants
Healthcare and pharma
Government and PSU offices
Distributed SMB swapping out a VPN

InstaSafe earns its place where two things matter at once: people work from everywhere, and the apps they reach hold data you cannot afford to leak. A regional bank wants policy and logs to stay in India. A BPO wants a US client auditor in one app for a week, not on the whole network. For a heavy on-prem desktop estate, we will put Accops on the path and pair sign-on with Okta. Browse the Cloud SaaS catalogue for the rest of the stack.

Mid-page stake

Your VPN is the door attackers knock on first.

A public VPN gateway is a known target, and one stolen login can open the whole network. Per the DPDP Act, the penalty ceiling for a data breach is INR 250 Crore. The CERT-In directions expect a covered incident reported within six hours. Zero trust removes the open door. The app is invisible, access is per user and per app, and every session is logged for your RBI and customer due-diligence answers.

Zero trust access vs Zscaler Private Access vs Cloudflare Access

Three honest ways to give people safe access without a VPN. The pick is workload-driven and budget-driven, not brand-driven.

Residency and the stack around it

Where your policy and session logs live

The question Indian buyers ask first: where does our access policy and log data sit? With InstaSafe the answer is workable. The platform is built on Software Defined Perimeter principles documented by the Cloud Security Alliance. It offers India point-of-presence and in-region log options, so the controller config and session records stay where your auditor wants. It aligns to ISO/IEC 27001 practice, with per-role admin and audit trails for due-diligence questionnaires.

Zero trust access does not work alone. We fold rollout into your DPDP compliance package and put privileged sessions behind Delinea or ARCON, so admins are vaulted, not trusted. Skyhigh Security and Cato cover the wider cloud-access and SASE edge, Palo Alto Prisma suits the global estate, and Microsoft Purview with Secure Data Guard stops data leaving the endpoint. Netwrix tracks who changed what, FireMon keeps the rule base clean, and Bitdefender GravityZone holds the endpoint layer. Rolling out new laptops too? Ask about Device-as-a-Service when you buy 50+ devices.

Who is InstaSafe Zero Trust Access India a good fit for in India?

InstaSafe Zero Trust Access India works best for Indian businesses that already have established workflows around the related platforms, need DPDP-compliant data residency, and want a single accountable partner for deployment plus quarterly tuning. Sirius Star runs the entire lifecycle — scoping, deployment, training, and renewal — from a Navi Mumbai engineering team.

How long does InstaSafe Zero Trust Access India deployment take?

A typical InstaSafe Zero Trust Access India rollout in India takes 2-6 weeks from purchase order to production cutover, depending on scope. Sirius Star follows a phased plan: scoping call within 8 working hours of enquiry, design review within 5 days, deployment waves, then a 30-day stabilisation window before handing over to your team or our managed retainer.

Zero trust access FAQ for Indian buyers

How is InstaSafe priced in India in 2026?

InstaSafe is priced per user, per month, by the modules you switch on. Zero trust application access, multi-factor authentication, and single sign-on each sit in the plan, and third-party agentless access is licensed by need. Every figure is confirmed in INR at quote time, exclusive of GST.

How is this different from a VPN?

A VPN drops a verified user onto the network and trusts them with everything reachable from there. Zero trust access grants one app at a time, only after the user and device are checked, and the app stays invisible. There is no open gateway to scan or attack.

Can policy and logs stay inside India?

Yes, within reason. InstaSafe offers India point-of-presence and in-region log options, so the controller config and session records can be kept in India. That is a clean answer for DPDP, RBI, and customer due-diligence questionnaires, and we confirm the exact regions in the design.

Is InstaSafe better than Zscaler?

It depends on the brief. Zscaler leads on global scale and a very large cloud security edge. InstaSafe wins for Indian SMB, BFSI, and government buyers who want an India-built vendor, local support on IST hours, in-region residency, and tighter cost control. We will tell you honestly which one your estate needs.

P.S. from Priya Sharma, Data Protection Practice, Sirius Star. The cheapest win on this page is the access map inside the free review. We have seen plenty of Indian offices run a VPN that quietly gives every contractor the run of the network. Swapping that for zero trust access usually pays for itself the first time an audit asks who reached which app, and you have the log to answer in one line.
