Delivers Detailed Access Reporting and AI-Generated Policy Recommendations, Simplifying and Accelerating Zero Trust Adoption  

CORAL GABLES, Fla.: Appgate, the secure access company, today announced the launch of its Application Discovery Service, a cloud-delivered solution designed to automate application access discovery and entitlement refinement. This service enables organizations to accelerate Zero Trust Network Access adoption by providing enhanced visibility into user access patterns and enforcing precise, least-privilege access controls.

Organizations transitioning to Zero Trust often struggle to define granular entitlements due to a lack of visibility into which applications users are accessing. Many initially replicate legacy VPN access models, unintentionally granting excessive permissions that increase security risks. Traditional methods of auditing access—such as manual log reviews—are time-consuming, error-prone, and delay Zero Trust implementation.

"Achieving true Zero Trust requires a deep understanding of user access patterns, but many organizations struggle with this due to limited visibility and manual processes," said Michael Levy, SVP of Product Management at Appgate. "Our Application Discovery Service removes these barriers by delivering automated, data-driven insights that empower security teams to implement least-privilege access efficiently and with confidence."

Appgate’s Application Discovery Service leverages artificial intelligence to analyze network connection data, identify access patterns, and recommend refined entitlements. By automating this process, organizations can swiftly enforce Zero Trust principles while minimizing administrative overhead and compliance risks.

Key features and benefits include:

• Faster Zero Trust Deployment – Automates entitlement refinement, reducing setup time.
• Enhanced Security – Minimizes lateral movement and unauthorized access by enforcing application-specific controls.
• Operational Efficiency – Eliminates manual discovery processes, freeing IT and security teams to focus on strategic initiatives.
• Regulatory Compliance – Enforces granular least-privilege access control to align with regulatory compliance requirements.
• Seamless User Experience – Ensures uninterrupted access while security teams refine entitlements in the background.

“Appgate’s Application Discovery Service has been a force multiplier in our Zero Trust adoption. By providing deep, real-time insight into application access behaviors and automating entitlement refinement, we’ve been able to enforce least-privilege access with surgical precision. Crucially, we’ve done this without degrading the user experience or slowing down the business. Striking the right balance between robust security and dependable, authorized access is non-negotiable—and Appgate has helped us deliver exactly that.” — Sean Calista, Director of Information Security, CloudZero.

“Understanding and controlling application access is a critical component of Zero Trust security. Appgate’s Application Discovery Service provides unparalleled visibility into access patterns, making it easier to refine entitlements and enforce least-privilege policies. This innovation aligns perfectly with our commitment to helping organizations secure their environments with precision and efficiency.” — Sean Glansbeek, Chief Executive Officer, Private Protocol.

Appgate’s Application Discovery Service is now generally available for customers running Appgate ZTNA v6.5 and above. For more information:
