ZeroPort pitches non-IP hardware as an answer to remote access breaches

A growing number of high-profile cyber incidents have exposed a common weakness in enterprise remote access: the reliance on IP-based connectivity. From large-scale VPN compromises to breaches involving government systems, attackers have repeatedly exploited this architectural layer to gain access to internal networks and exfiltrate data.

Israeli cybersecurity startup ZeroPort believes the problem is fundamental—and that software alone cannot fix it. This week, the company outlined how its hardware-based approach is designed to make remote access breaches “physically impossible” by removing IP communication from the equation altogether.

Rethinking remote access at the hardware layer

Most remote access technologies, including VPNs and secure gateways, depend on IP traffic flowing in and out of enterprise networks. According to ZeroPort, that design choice creates an unavoidable attack surface—one that has been exploited even in environments run by national cyber defence agencies.
