Configuring gateways for Human Privilege
Gateways are fundamental components that act as entry points for accessing resources on a private network. The Endpoint Controller intelligently determines the optimal gateway path to connect a user with a resource, ensuring efficient and secure access.
Human Privilege supports different types of gateways depending on your environment. As an administrator, you can configure the following:
- Private Proxies
-
Choose this option to deploy a gateway on your own infrastructure, such as Google Cloud Platform (GCP), Microsoft Azure, or your own on-premise data centers.
- Relays
-
Relays are used in networks that don’t allow inbound connections. They establish an outbound connection to a gateway, creating a secure tunnel for traffic without requiring you to open firewall ports.
Together, these components create a flexible and secure network infrastructure that allows Human Privilege to manage access to any resource, regardless of its location or network configuration.
| To ensure high availability, we recommend deploying at least two gateways per network. |
