Access resources in outbound-only networks with Boundary multi-hop

Boundary multi-hop sessions allows organizations to provide secure access to remote users without compromising on their network security policies, even in outbound-only networks. This demo shows the simple setup and UX. Documentation on mutli-hop sessions → developer.hashicorp.com/boundary/docs/concepts/con…

It is challenging for many organizations to provide their developers and end users with access to sensitive systems in strict networks that prohibit inbound access, or only allow access by traversing through multiple networks. Such access is usually complex to set up and cumbersome for end users.

HashiCorp Boundary makes this process very simple for both the administrators and the end users, without requiring organizations to loosen network policies. Connection into a network is only possible through reverse-proxy connections between one or more Boundary proxies (referred to as workers). All connections are logged and SSH sessions are recorded for compliance. Access is identity-based and credentials can be injected for SSH sessions, resulting in an elegant passwordless experience for the end user while still adhering to strict network security policies.
