What fully-managed means here

You keep the keys. We keep it patched, watched, and documented.

SB-01OpenZiti

Security & zero-trust, built in

Every appliance ships with an OpenZiti zero-trust overlay. Applications are reachable by identity, not by open ports — your office systems stay invisible to the public internet by default.

SB-0224/7 NOC

Uptime you can point at

Power, connectivity and service health are metered continuously. Thresholds raise alerts before your staff notices a problem, and every incident lands in your portal with a timestamped record.

SB-03audit trail

Compliance-ready records

Configuration baselines, patch history, access changes and incident timelines are logged and exportable — evidence you can hand to an auditor, an insurer, or a client's security review.

SB-04patch mgmt

Remote monitoring & patching

Our NOC watches security logs, system health and patch state around the clock. Updates are staged and applied on a schedule you approve — no more forgotten firmware on a closet switch.

SB-05self-hosted

Office automation utilities

Hosted on your own appliance: file sharing, print management, backups, VoIP support and access control — fully-managed by PortGuard, running on hardware you own.

SB-0635–70 W

No server room required

A silent 10-inch appliance draws 35–70 W — roughly one old light bulb. It lives on a shelf or wall bracket, needs no dedicated cooling, and keeps running for hours on a modest UPS.

03 / From box to managed network in three steps

From box to managed network in three steps

No cabinet build-out, no commissioning project. The appliance arrives pre-provisioned and enrolls itself.

01 step 01

Select & Ship

Order a pre-configured PortGuard Micro Appliance tailored to your organization's footprint — desk, wall, or 10-inch rack.

02 step 02

Plug & Activate

Connect via a single PoE line. The appliance securely phones home to the PortGuard centralized cloud orchestration plane.

03 step 03

Continuous Management

Our team actively monitors security logs, patch updates, and system health while providing access via a unified control center dashboard.

Walk through the guided inquiry, or configure a build and take it to the store. Either way, you'll know exactly what ships and what we manage.
