What problems is Avast Secure Private Access solving and how is that benefiting you?

Avast SPA authenticates users based on identity, not just location or device, ensuring access is role- and context-based.

It isolates resources and applications so users only access what they need — enforcing least privilege.

Avast evaluates the security posture of user devices ( patches, antivirus, OS version, etc. ) before allowing network access.

Uses strong encryption to protect data in transit and ensures that traffic between users and resources is private.

User activity is monitored in real-time to detect anomalies and potential threats, aligning with the "assume breach" mindset. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Great security for users in network access"

5/5

What do you like best about Avast Secure Private Access?

The best part of the product is the replacement of the traditional VPN offered in the vast majority of the market with a ZTNA (Zero Trust Network Access) that is much more reliable, provides better security, and is more scalable than the traditional VPN. For those who are not familiar, this ZTNA provides a more secure private access for applications whether they are private/local or in the cloud, and the best part is that this access does not always need to be from a computer but can also be from a mobile device or any other device that supports Avast Secure Private Access.

What do you dislike about Avast Secure Private Access?

Having so many modules and features, it can be a bit confusing at first to correctly understand when we need to use some of these features to take full advantage of them, but it is not a serious issue, just enough to train oneself to understand the service flow and know when we need each tool included in Avast Secure Private Access.

What problems is Avast Secure Private Access solving and how is that benefiting you?

Mainly the cost reduction, a normal VPN does not provide all the benefits and tools that Avasta Secure Private Access offers, they usually have to be purchased separately, which increases costs. Here, by having everything together, the investment decreases and all the advantages of the solution are obtained. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
