BERLIN, June 30, 2026 /PRNewswire/ — Netcube, Inc. today launched npass.io, a cloud-native Network Access Control (NAC) platform built for European businesses, at GITEX Europe 2026 (Messe Berlin, 30 June – 1 July). The platform makes its European debut at the prestigious trade show, featuring live cloud demonstrations for industry attendees.
npass.io replaces the high cost and operational complexity of traditional on-premise NAC appliances with a modern SaaS solution that an IT team can fully roll out within hours. It manages enterprise-grade access entirely from the cloud, integrating seamlessly with an organisation’s existing network equipment and identity providers without requiring any disruptive hardware changes or a “rip-and-replace” of infrastructure.
Enterprise NAC Without the Appliance
Traditional NAC has long depended on dedicated hardware, lengthy deployment projects, and specialist operators — a rigid model that has placed robust network security out of reach for many mid-market organisations and the Mittelstand.
npass.io takes a fundamentally different approach. The control plane runs entirely as a managed cloud service, eliminating the need to procure, install, or maintain physical hardware appliances. IT teams can easily configure security policies, enrol devices, and segment the network from a single, intuitive cloud console.
Key Capabilities
- 802.1X & RADIUS Authentication: Delivers secure EAP-TLS and PEAP authentication using certificate-based device identity.
- Self-Service BYOD Onboarding: Features an automated onboarding workflow that lets users securely enrol their own devices.
- Cloud-Native Control Plane: No on-premise appliance to deploy, rack, or update, reducing total cost of ownership.
- Multi-Vendor Compatibility: Supports Cisco, HPE Aruba, Extreme, Juniper, Ruckus, and any RADIUS-capable equipment.
- Identity Provider Integration: Integrates out of the box with Microsoft Entra ID, Google Workspace, and Okta.
- EU-Based Hosting: Hosted in Frankfurt on AWS (eu-central-1), fully aligned with GDPR, NIS2, and TDDDG by design.
Built and Hosted in Europe for Strict Compliance
For European IT decision-makers, data residency and strict regulatory alignment are decisive factors when selecting a security platform. By keeping data strictly within the European Union, npass.io is ideally positioned for organisations in highly regulated sectors such as finance, manufacturing, healthcare, and the public sector. The platform is backed by Netcube’s deep operational expertise, drawing on more than two decades of managing NAC solutions for critical infrastructure across Asia.
