Front-door security falls short

A breach at the entrance should stay at the entrance.

Greymatter.io puts a checkpoint in front of your internal systems. A connection must prove who it is and that it is allowed in. Anything else gets turned away.

DoD Zero Trust alignment

Measured against DoD Zero Trust.

Greymatter.io measures your mesh against DoD Zero Trust, pillar by pillar: what is in place, what is not, and what is not yet turned on.

01User +

Confirms who someone is through the login system you already use, including CAC and PIV cards.

Once enforcement is on, only verified callers get through.

Gives workloads their own identities and verifies requests between services and at gateways.

Encrypts traffic between services. Services reach only the data their rules allow.

Splits your network into small, guarded zones. Traffic moves only on approved, encrypted paths.

Every request gets recorded, step by step, so your team can trace what happened.

Automated playbooks cut manual setup by 90%. Rules roll out as code, with no downtime and no redeploy.

Measured against DoD Zero Trust, fully aligned to the NIST Zero Trust standard, with FIPS 140-3 validated cryptography (CMVP #5191). Rules run as code, with a continuous audit trail.

Zero Trust Networking FAQs

Greymatter.io is a Zero Trust runtime security platform. We verify apps, APIs, and AI agents before they connect. Access stays limited to what your rules allow. Traffic between services stays encrypted. A breach stays where it started instead of spreading.

No. Greymatter.io works on top of what you run today. That includes Kubernetes, OpenShift, Amazon cloud servers, on-premises, and air-gapped networks. There is no rip and replace and no application rewrite. AI, data, and web checks start in watch-only mode, so you see what would be blocked before you turn blocking on. Your apps keep running the whole time.

Keep them. VPN, firewall, SASE, and ZTNA tools secure the edge. Greymatter.io secures what happens inside, between apps, APIs, and AI agents.

Greymatter.io gives each workload its own cryptographic identity, based on the open SPIFFE and SPIRE standards. Traffic between services is encrypted with mutual TLS, using FIPS 140-3 validated cryptography (CMVP #5191). Once enforcement is on, no request moves until it passes your rules.

Greymatter.io records verified connections, so audit evidence builds as the platform runs. Greymatter.io is fully aligned to the NIST Zero Trust standard. One customer saw 62% faster audits.
