Argus helps organizations cut through connectivity complexity, secure every connection, and ensure mission-critical operations run smoothly, no matter location or risk scenario.

Modern enterprises often rely on a patchwork of connectivity – mixing satellite, cellular, and terrestrial links – while facing rising cyber threats and operational complexity. Traditional VPNs, firewalls, and manually stitched networks fall short in ensuring uninterrupted and secure connectivity. 

Enter Argus.

Just over a month ago, we introduced our software-defined, mission-ready overlay platform. Designed to unify and manage all types of connectivity – from VSAT and other satellite links to 5G/LTE, private LTE, and terrestrial networks – Argus operates under a single, secure, and resilient architecture. For organizations facing regulatory demands, remote work challenges, or trying to unify disparate technologies and multi-cloud complexity, Argus offers peace of mind, keeping operations secure, adaptable, and ready for whatever’s next. 

Modular by Design, Mission-Ready by Nature 

The true power of Argus lies in its modularity. These four modules – Fabric, Zero Trust, Portal, and Multi-Path – work independently or together, depending on your needs. Whether you’re an enterprise managing global field ops or a defense agency securing sensitive deployments, Argus is ready to meet the moment.

But what does that mean for your team? Let's break it down through the questions we hear most: 

How does Argus ensure our entire network is secure - from devices to data, across all locations?

Argus locks every packet behind Zero Trust - automatically. From device boot-up, it binds each endpoint to an identity, cloaks IPs, and routes traffic through a fully encrypted overlay network, eliminating exposure points entirely. Whether you’re on Starlink in the far north or fiber in a major center, attackers can’t even see your endpoints, let alone hit them. One control plane, global coverage - no gaps, no excuses.

How does Argus deliver when using a mix of networks?

Argus operates seamlessly over any existing network infrastructure. Satellite, LTE, microwave, or fiber - it treats them as one seamless pipe. Argus can dynamically manage multiple bearers, ensuring uninterrupted connectivity without the complexity or cost of traditional approaches. 

In a nutshell, it doesn't care how you connect, only that you stay connected securely.

How does Argus secure the network without relying on traditional VPNs or firewalls?

VPN concentrators and firewall rules are a magnet for CVEs and midnight maintenance windows. Argus replaces them with a certificate-driven overlay that builds micro-tunnels on demand, per user, per app. No centralized devices to maintain, no single points of failure to target, and no exposed IP addresses to exploit. Simply click, connect, and go. 

Is Argus capable of supporting distributed operations?

Yes,  Argus is built specifically for complex, distributed, and cloud-first environments. It rapidly provisions secure connectivity across multiple locations and cloud services, providing one-click orchestration and global compliance visibility.

When your workforces and applications are spread across various cloud and on-premises setups, Argus protects critical data wherever it lives, across users, devices, and locations. 

Are new hardware investments needed to deploy Argus across our network? 

Argus is entirely software-based, allowing our clients to deploy it rapidly without needing additional hardware investments. Drop our lightweight client or edge gateway on what you already own - routers, VMs, even rugged SBCs - and watch the overlay light up. 

It's also designed to scale with client growth. Grow from ten to a thousand users without re-architecting your stack

How does Argus support our compliance needs?

Argus provides audit trails that exceed leading compliance frameworks such as NIST Zero Trust, CMMC 2.0, and ISO 27001. With detailed real-time visibility and geographically enforceable data paths, Argus simplifies compliance management and audits. 

Industries with critical regulatory demands, like finance, healthcare, and government, can benefit from our ability to meet data sovereignty requirements through comprehensive access control and monitoring capabilities.
