Stable identity
Public-key identity and self-certifying addressing persist across reboots, IP renumbering, and physical relocation.
Bind each Endlet to a cryptographic identity and machine-validated state, then apply lifecycle and policy controls before it can join the fabric.
Operational value
21Packets shifts trust decisions from assumed network location to the software endpoint itself. EdgeControl coordinates onboarding, validation, admission, re-attestation, replacement, retirement, and revocation while maintaining authoritative fleet state.
Network presence is not proof of trust. Every Endlet must prove itself to EdgeControl first.
Inside the capability
EdgeControl creates an isolated, out-of-band control and admission path for distributed Endlets. It governs authentication, authorization, admission, policy distribution, re-attestation, replacement, retirement, and revocation without relying on network presence as proof of trust.
Public-key identity and self-certifying addressing persist across reboots, IP renumbering, and physical relocation.
Supports FIDO Device Onboard for late binding or approved credential-based enrollment.
Failed identity, software-state, authorization, or attestation checks receive no route state, protected policy, or key material.
The Endlet operating model
Why it matters
Require identity, authorization, and machine-validation conditions before an Endlet participates.
Create identity-centric boundaries and least-privilege connectivity independent of physical location.
Coordinate ongoing re-attestation, replacement, retirement, and revocation—not just initial enrollment.
