About

Baseguard

Read full description

BaseGuard connects all your devices into a single secure mesh network. Install it, sign in, and every device you add can talk to every other device directly. That's it. HOW IT WORKS Each device gets a stable private IP and finds other devices on its own. Connections go directly between devices, not through a central server. If direct connection isn't possible, traffic is relayed automatically. You don't need to configure anything. All traffic is encrypted end-to-end with WireGuard. Keys are managed for you. WHAT YOU GET Zero Configuration Add a device, it joins the network. No config files, no firewall rules, no port forwarding. Direct P2P Connections Devices connect to each other at wire speed. No middleman slowing things down. Smart DNS Reach any device by name. Type "database.internal" instead of memorizing IP addresses. Tag-Based Access Control Control who can reach what using tags and policies. Not IP addresses, not subnets. Identity-based, default-deny. Full Audit Trail Every connection, every policy change, every access attempt is logged. SOC 2, HIPAA, GDPR ready. Multi-Org Support Run multiple isolated networks from one account. Great for agencies and MSPs managing different clients. WHO USES BASEGUARD - Remote teams who need secure access to internal tools - DevOps teams connecting CI/CD to private infrastructure - Companies running hybrid or multi-cloud setups - Anyone managing IoT or edge devices at scale - Hobbyists running home labs, game servers, or self-hosted apps
