Cloud VPN to Access Protected Resources

Secure access to your cloud infrastructure (AWS VPC, DigitalOcean Droplets, etc.) by deploying a VPN gateway that authenticates against AuthBeast.

Use Case

You have private resources in the cloud (databases, internal dashboards) that shouldn't be exposed to the public internet. You need a way for developers and admins to access them securely.

Solution

  1. Deploy a VPN Gateway: Spin up a MikroTik CHR (Cloud Hosted Router) or any other VPN-capable appliance in your cloud environment.
  2. Connect to AuthBeast: Configure the gateway to use AuthBeast for RADIUS authentication.
  3. Secure Access: Users connect to the VPN using their AuthBeast credentials to access the private network.

This provides a cost-effective alternative to expensive enterprise VPN solutions or complex OpenVPN setups with manual certificate management.
