About the BlastShield Agent
The BlastShield™ Agent is a lightweight application that securely connects the host on which it is installed to the BlastShield™ network. The Agent provides a virtual network interface which is secured in the BlastShield protected peer-to-peer network that can only be accessed by authenticated and authorized users. To access an Agent, a user must authenticate and connect with the BlastShield™ network using MFA and must also have appropriate zero-trust policy permissions.

Agents are available for Linux, Windows and ARM, and can be deployed on any cloud infrastructure such as AWS EC2, Azure VM or GCP Compute Engine, bare metal, and on VMware virtual machines.
