ZeroTier creates secure, programmable network overlays that connect devices, infrastructure, and applications anywhere.
ZeroTier replaces physical network boundaries with cryptographic identity and secure peer‑to‑peer connectivity.
Each network member is identified, authenticated, and connected using four core mechanisms:
Each network member is identified, authenticated, and connected using four core mechanisms.
ZeroTier combines lightweight software agents, a secure peer‑to‑peer networking layer, and a flexible control plane to create a distributed networking platform.
ZeroTier Quantum is managed directly through command-line tools and APIs, giving operators full control over network configuration and behavior.
From these interfaces, teams can:
All configuration is distributed as cryptographically signed objects and enforced locally by each node.
The control layer defines how networks behave.
Administrators use it to manage:
Control information is distributed to nodes, which enforce policy locally.
The ZeroTier data layer forms a secure peer‑to‑peer overlay network.
Devices communicate directly whenever possible, establishing encrypted connections between nodes across the internet.
Every device that joins a ZeroTier network runs a lightweight software agent.
This agent installs as a background service and creates a virtual network interface on the host system.
Agents run across servers, desktops, mobile devices, routers, and embedded systems
ZeroTier networks operate as secure virtual overlays on top of existing infrastructure.
Connectivity is defined through identity and policy rather than physical topology.
ZeroTier enables modern distributed networking across environments.
Create private virtual networks that span cloud providers, data centers, and devices.
Connect infrastructure across multiple cloud providers without complex routing or VPN configuration.
Securely connect thousands of devices, servers, or embedded systems into unified networks.
Define network behavior through programmable policy tied to node identity.
Support both Ethernet bridging and routed IP networking for flexible infrastructure integration.
Control networks via APIs and automation to integrate with modern infrastructure workflows.
Secure networking for mission‑critical environments.
ZeroTier Quantum leverages deterministic networking and post‑quantum cryptographic security designed for environments where resilience and security are non-negotiable.
