Platform
Quadrant is a network platform as a service (NPaaS). Distributed routers, provisioned from one place, are joined by an encrypted overlay that runs over any carrier. You get one private network across all your sites, clouds and remote users, and a single place to manage it.
Your network survives the loss of a line, a carrier or a whole site, because every part of it can carry traffic for the rest.
Sites can combine optical fibre, terrestrial radio and geostationary satellite, so a cut cable or a failed carrier does not cut you off.
Any connected node, from a branch office to a whole data centre, can serve as an exit for the entire network: over private MPLS, through BGP peering or through a local internet provider. You decide where traffic leaves, site by site, for legal, safety or policy reasons.
Every layer has a fallback, so the network rides out outages and attacks. Backups replicate between sites at high speed.
Most attacks start with a user rather than with the core of the network. Logging is therefore complete by default: kept safe, auditable and ready for forensic analysis, so that after any incident you know what happened, how, and where it began.
You decide where your data lives, who can reach it and what is recorded about it.
Part of the network runs in data centres whose locations are not disclosed, not even to us. We are an unknown client to those suppliers, and they are unknown suppliers to us.
Everything is encrypted, at rest, in transit and in memory, so tens of these sites work as one network. As long as one of them is running, so is yours.
You decide what is logged and how long it is kept. We advise on retention rules country by country and jurisdiction by jurisdiction.
We deliberately operate across many jurisdictions and economic zones, so each part of your data and services can sit under the jurisdiction that suits it best.
Your addresses and your workloads go where you need them, without renumbering and without downtime.
Bring your own IPv4 and IPv6 addresses, or use ours. The encrypted overlay lets the same addresses work from several locations at once: for off-site copies of virtual machines and applications, or for moves between premises and clouds without changing a line of configuration.
Move networks, virtual machines and applications between racks, sites or continents while they run. Sessions stay connected through migration and failover, established NAT state included.
Multi-master nodes, hot backups, database synchronisation and full-disk replication are supported. A migration API reserves up to 80 Gbps of bandwidth and tunes each transfer automatically, from TCP window sizing to layer 2 jumbo frames. Moving to another continent becomes no harder than moving to the next rack.
People on the road, in branch offices and at headquarters work on one network, under the same rules.
Remote users join the same finely segmented network as people on site, with the same protection. Two-factor authentication, mutual certificate infrastructure, device integrity checks and 802.1X decide who gets in.
Firewalling at layers 2 and 3 decides what each user can reach: ARP control and MAC-based blocking, source and destination rules, and TLS inspection for authenticated users.
Voice, video and team collaboration come from ClearerLink, the secure telecom operator we own and run on every continent, in more than 70 jurisdictions. We control the service hardware and software end to end, so calls and meetings get the same protection as the network that carries them.
For network and security engineers.
Every deployment starts from your sites, your clouds and the rules you work under.
