BUILT FOR SECURE CLOUD-TO-LOCAL COMMUNICATION
Connect Local Security Systems Without Exposing the Network.
Secure Gateway allows UnityIS® Cloud to communicate with local systems while preserving the customer’s firewall boundaries and keeping inbound access closed.
01 / OUTBOUND
No Inbound Firewall Access
The gateway initiates its encrypted connection outbound, eliminating the need to expose inbound services or configure port forwarding.
02 / CONTROL
Customer-Controlled Security
Customer IT teams retain control over their local network, firewall policy, devices, and security infrastructure.
03 / OT-SAFE
No Agent on Controllers
Secure Gateway acts as the bridge without requiring software agents to be installed on access, intrusion, or building controllers.
04 / APPLIANCE
Purpose-Built Gateway
A single-purpose, Linux-based appliance provides the connectivity layer without introducing a general-purpose workstation.
HOW IT FITS

FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS
Questions About UnityIS® Secure Gateway
Learn how Secure Gateway connects UnityIS® Cloud to local security and building systems while helping customer networks remain protected.
What is UnityIS® Secure Gateway?
UnityIS® Secure Gateway is a hardened, on-premises appliance that securely bridges UnityIS® Cloud to supported devices and systems on the customer's local network, including systems that do not natively support IP Client connectivity.
Does Secure Gateway require inbound firewall ports to be opened?
No. Secure Gateway initiates its encrypted connection outbound, so inbound port forwarding or direct internet exposure of local controllers is not required.
What types of systems can Secure Gateway connect?
Secure Gateway can provide a secure cloud-to-local communications path for supported access control systems, intrusion panels, IP cameras, wireless locks, building systems, and other network-connected devices.
Does Secure Gateway install software on security controllers?
No. Secure Gateway acts as the communications bridge without requiring software agents to be installed on access control, intrusion, or building controllers.
Who controls the local network and firewall policies?
The customer retains control of the local network, firewall policies, connected devices, and security infrastructure. Secure Gateway provides the controlled communications path between UnityIS® Cloud and supported local systems.
Is Secure Gateway a general-purpose computer?
No. It is a purpose-built, Linux-based gateway appliance designed specifically to provide the connectivity layer between UnityIS® Cloud and supported on-premises systems.
Is Secure Gateway required for every UnityIS® Cloud deployment?
No. Secure Gateway is not required for Azure, Atlas, and Mercury controllers that support IP Client connectivity. It is used when supported local systems require a secure cloud-to-local communications path.
How does Secure Gateway connect to UnityIS® Cloud?
After the appliance is deployed on the customer's local network, Secure Gateway establishes an encrypted outbound connection. UnityIS® Cloud can then communicate with supported local devices through that controlled gateway connection.
