Open-source WireGuard-based zero trust network access platform replacing traditional VPNs for IT and engineering teams.
NetBird is an open-source secure access platform that replaces traditional VPNs with identity-based zero trust network access: a configuration-free peer-to-peer WireGuard network plus centralized access control covering IdP users, least-privilege policies, SSO with MFA, posture checks, private DNS, network routes, SSH, and activity logging. It runs on desktop, mobile, container, and router platforms.
It ships as NetBird Cloud, priced per active user and machine with free, team, business, and enterprise tiers, and as a self-hosted edition under a permissive BSD-3 license, with an MSP program and GDPR, ISO 27001, and DORA posture on commercial tiers.
