Your pricing is the product. The portal is where it leaks.
Buyer and vendor portals, the ERP behind them, and a field sales team on tablets: each scoped to exactly what they are entitled to see, with nothing reachable behind it.

Most B2B buying now starts in a browser, and digital procurement long ago stopped being a metro phenomenon. The platform that used to be an order form is the company's main channel, and what flows through it is mostly wholesale pricing, contract terms, stock positions and the supplier map rather than card data. In this business a leak hands a competitor the means to undercut you by Tuesday.
The access model behind the storefront is usually the one that existed before it mattered: distributors and suppliers admitted to the core network through a legacy VPN, field agents reaching ERP and inventory from tablets on whatever Wi-Fi the customer's office offers, and a staging environment somebody published during launch week and nobody took down.
The five or six places this actually changes something.
- Buyer & vendor portalsA distributor's session resolves to their own orders and their own pricing. Scope is a property of the access policy, not a filter the application is trusted to apply correctly on every screen.Third-Party Access
- The ERP behind itThe ERP and the staging environment stop answering unauthenticated inbound, so the systems holding the pricing table are not individually discoverable.Zero Trust Network Access
- Field sales on tabletsPosture is checked before a session exists: rooted, unpatched or unknown devices are refused, whichever network the agent happens to be on.Device Posture Check
- Territory and roleA salesperson gets their territory, a vendor gets their catalogue, an ops user gets the console, decided per request from identity, device, location and time.
- Onboarding a partnerA new distributor is a group membership, a tile set and an expiry date, created from the console, instead of a VPN account and a firewall change that outlives the relationship.VPN Alternative
The numbers this vertical gets asked for.
- Partner scopePer-partner groups and tile sets; a session resolves to their own orders, not to a filtered view of everyone's
- ExposureERP and staging environments answer no unauthenticated inbound
- Device rules25 device check types across 144 named rules; rooted, unpatched and unknown devices refused
- Authentication6 MFA methods, so a partner who will install nothing still carries a second factor
- OnboardingA group membership and an expiry date, issued and revoked from the console
- Legacy and modernA long-lived on-premise ERP and this year's SaaS under one policy
One record decideswhat each partner sees.
What changes when entitlement lives in the access policy instead of inside the storefront.
The record is the entitlement
What a buyer, a vendor or a salesperson can reach follows from their directory record, so a new screen in the portal cannot accidentally widen it.
Scraping loses its door
Pricing and stock sit behind an authenticated, entitled session, so there is no anonymous surface for a competitor's crawler to work through.
Ending a relationship ends the access
Removing the record closes every session it fed (the distributor account, the tablet, the API path) in one action rather than in a checklist.
Partner accounts, on hardware you will never manage.
Distribution partners signed in from their own machines to the one system they trade through, with no directory of the estate behind it to browse. Policy is written per partner and per device rather than per network, which is the only shape that works when the buyer is somebody else’s employee.
- Need to know_
- Encrypted end to end_
- One device at a time_
Every partner sees their own orders,
and nothing standing next to them.
- Identity signals
- Device signals
- Network signals
- Application signals
You can verify identity, device, network, and app on every request. One decision engine evaluates all four before a single packet reaches anything — not four separate tools.
Entitlement is policy, not a filter in the page. Per-partner groups and tile sets decide what a session resolves to, so a mistake in the storefront cannot expose a competitor's pricing.
One console, not five. ZTNA, ZTAA, IAM, MFA, and SSO — retire the point products.
We are enterprise-grade compliant. Architecture aligned to NIST SP 800-207 and CSA SDP; supports the controls required by PCI DSS, HIPAA, GDPR, SOX, and ISO 27001.
Partner access has an expiry date. A distributor is onboarded as a group membership with a scope and an end date, so relationships that finish do not leave a working account behind.
