True Zero Trust for Workloads

Powered by a
Cloud-Native Automated Moving Target Defense (AMTD)

Recognized by Gartner® as a Tech Innovator in
Automated Moving Target Defense

92% of API attacks reported were against public-facing API endpoints.

84% of API attacks against financial/insurance APIs were authenticated, but were actually threat actors.

The API data breach rate in 2023 is on pace to exceed more than one billion data records.

61% of IT professionals say that the theft or misuse of machine identities is a serious concern.

By 2026, more than 90% of enterprises will operate in multiple clouds, and face increased complexity.

We solve Zero Trust cyber defense challenges

Stop chasing threats. Our proactive AMTD prevents credential theft and lateral movement by making credentials and attack paths disappear.

A new Zero Trust Security Paradigm

Security leaders can achieve Zero Trust for workloads, stop lateral movement of insider threats, and prevent credential theft with Hopr. But DevOps, and Platform Engineers benefit, too. Hopr provides a simple, "DevOps-friendly" automated solution that removes complexity and friction.

Wasting time on complex mTLS configuration, brittle implementations, and 'alert fatigue' from noisy tools?
Our Lane7 Blueprints are the 'Complexity-Free' Zero Trust alternative to Istio for Platform Engineers.

How Hopr Makes Your Attack Surface Disappear

Our Workload Security Proxy (WoSP)—a lightweight proxy built on open-source Envoy—combines three patented 'superpowers' to animate your attack surface and make credentials useless to attackers.

Machine Alias ID (MAID™)

Instead of a static certificate, the MAID™ (Machine Alias ID) provides a verifiable, high-frequency rotating identity credential for every workload. It establishes a chain of trust in the workload itself, not just an external certificate authority.

Codes Hidden In Plain Sight (CHIPS™)

Our patented CHIPS™ technology enables two trusted workloads to generate identical, ephemeral, encryption keys. This completely eliminates key exchanges, and the "secret zero" problem.

Synchronous Ephemeral Encryption (SEE™)

Using the CHIPS™-generated keys, our SEE™ protocol instantly creates a secure, bi-directional, end-to-end encrypted channel at every session. You get greater security without "complicated, error prone" mTLS configurations.

The Result: Runtime Microsharding™

An animation of shards appearing and disappearing
Our Cloud Native AMTD has the effect of fracturing the attack surface at the application layer into small dynamic 'shards.'
Runtime Microsharding™ is a unique Cloud Native AMTD outcome which causes the attack surface to appear animated to threats.
For an attacker, the attack surface is unpredictable. Trusted workloads appear as a "mirage"—they disappear the moment they are probed by a threat.
This is how we prevent credential theft and lateral movement; we don't wait to detect threats after the fact.

Hopr provides true Zero Trust access control for workloads and APIs, powered by a Cloud Native Automated Moving Target Defense.

We use ephemeral machine identities, credential hopping, and application-layer post quantum end-to-end encryption of data in transit.

And Hopr verifies identity trust at every API transaction and eliminates the risks from static credentials across clouds, clusters, and organizations.

And Hopr's novel Korvette-S Workload Security Proxy (WoSP) is simple and fast to deploy into a Zero Trust application network using a FREE Lane7 Blueprint.
