Pomerium is an open-source, identity- and context-aware reverse proxy that provides clientless, zero-trust access to internal applications and services. It authenticates users against any OIDC-compliant identity provider and enforces per-request authorization policies, replacing traditional VPN access.
Use cases
- secure remote access to internal web apps without a VPN
- add single sign-on and per-route authorization to self-hosted apps like Grafana or GitLab
- secure Kubernetes ingress and kubectl access clientlessly
- govern and log AI agent requests with per-request authorization
- replace corporate VPN for distributed teams and contractors
When to avoid
- you need full network-layer access to arbitrary TCP/UDP protocols rather than HTTP apps
- you want a simple point-to-point tunnel like WireGuard or Tailscale
- you cannot operate TLS certificates and DNS for proxied routes
