 GENAccess Managed VPN: Secure Remote Access for UK Business

Managed WireGuard remote access with zero trust controls, from £5 per user per month

GENAccess is a fully managed business VPN built on WireGuard. It gives remote staff secure access to your servers, files and internal applications, with a fixed office IP address for SaaS allowlists and per-user control over exactly what each person can reach.

We design, configure and run it for you, including site to site and hybrid cloud routing, so you get least privilege access without the operational burden. It starts at £5 per user per month.

  • "Our SaaS provider only accepts logins from the office IP"
  • "A contractor needs RDP to one server and nothing else"
  • "We want to retire the old VPN appliance"
  • "The VPN will not connect from hotel Wi-Fi"

What the Service Includes

GENAccess is a managed WireGuard network, based on NetBird, with an identity layer (Zitadel) and a policy layer on top. Instead of connecting meaning full network access, we design access around who the user is, what device they are on, and what they are trying to reach. If you are new to the subject, what is a VPN covers the basics.

  • Fast, modern VPN transport (WireGuard) with centrally managed keys and configuration
  • Fully managed, including onboarding, policy design, routing and complex scenarios
  • Identity-aware onboarding using Zitadel user accounts and controlled enrolment
  • We never hold your passwords: each user sets their own when they onboard, and it is never known to GEN
  • Peers tied to users: every device is bound to the person who enrolled it, so nobody else can use that connection with their own credentials
  • Managed routing points through dedicated exit nodes on your corporate LAN
  • Optional zero trust controls: routes, ports, groups, policies and posture checks

Good for

  • Remote teams that need a trusted office IP for SaaS allowlists
  • Businesses replacing legacy VPN appliances
  • Access that has to follow least privilege and be auditable

Contract

  • 12 month contract, billed monthly
  • UK based support and management

Fully managed by specialists

This is not a self-service VPN kit. We design, configure and manage the service for you, including the more advanced requirements: segmented access, policy rules, exit nodes, and hybrid cloud or on-premises routing. Policies, routes and access rules are built around your real requirements, and your own IT team carries less of the operational load.

Works over HTTPS-friendly paths

The platform can be deployed to connect over HTTPS, so remote users can reach the corporate network from hotels, guest Wi-Fi, mobile networks and other restrictive or heavily filtered networks, where traditional VPN traffic is often blocked or unreliable.

Zero Trust and WireGuard, in Plain English

Zero trust means we do not assume a device is trusted just because it is on the VPN. Every access decision is treated as a new request to be evaluated.

  • Verify explicitly: identity, device and context are checked before access is allowed
  • Least privilege: users get only the routes and ports they need
  • Assume breach: the network is segmented to limit the damage any one compromised device can do

WireGuard is a modern VPN protocol known for strong cryptography, a small attack surface and excellent performance, which makes it a good fit for always-on remote access. Its handshakes are fast, connections survive moving between networks, its design is simple enough to audit, and it works well on desktop and mobile devices alike.

Key Concepts

Exit nodes

An exit node is a routing node on your corporate LAN that carries VPN traffic between remote users and the internal resources they are allowed to reach. A single node suits simpler environments; several can be deployed for load balancing, resilience and failover. Every plan includes one, and more can be added for capacity, redundancy, or to support different sites and network segments.

Routes

Routes decide which internal networks a user can reach over the VPN, for example a subnet of file servers, a lab network or a cloud VPC.

  • Access to subnets by group, Finance separate from Engineering
  • Split tunnelling where appropriate
  • Clear separation between internal access and internet egress

Policies and groups

Policies define what is allowed. Groups keep management simple by applying those policies to a set of users, and optionally devices.

  • Role-based access: Support, Developers, Contractors
  • Access limited to a project or a period of time
  • Auditable change history of who got access to what, and when

Micro-segmentation by port and protocol

Instead of the VPN giving you the whole network, we can allow only the specific ports needed: SSH to a bastion, RDP to a jump host, or HTTPS to an internal application.

  • Less room for lateral movement if a device is compromised
  • Access that lines up with your compliance obligations
  • Safer third party and contractor access

Posture checks

Posture checks are rules about a device's security state, used to allow, restrict or block access. Typical checks cover operating system version, disk encryption, endpoint protection and device enrolment. This is where zero trust becomes practical: a user can be valid, and their access can still be limited if the device does not meet your baseline.

Common Access Scenarios

The same platform can be shaped around very different requirements, from tightly scoped access to one application through to the whole network.

Remote userGENAccessidentity, policy and routingCorporate LANCloud serverERP systemHead officeBranch office

One RDP server

A remote user reaches one Windows server only, typically over RDP, without the wider company network being exposed.

  • One hostname or IP address only
  • RDP and supporting management ports only
  • Suits administrators, support staff and contractors

Proxied intranet access

Users reach an internal web application or intranet through a controlled route or proxy path, rather than being placed broadly onto the LAN.

  • One internal site exposed securely
  • Back-end systems kept out of general reach
  • HR, portals, dashboards and line of business applications

File server access

Remote users are limited to one or more file resources, such as a single NAS share, departmental storage or a defined set of file servers.

  • Scoped to specific servers or subnets
  • Works well for SMB/CIFS file access
  • Controlled document access for hybrid staff

Full network or subnet

Some roles need broader connectivity: the entire company network, or a specific subnet such as a finance VLAN, a lab or a cloud segment.

  • Traditional VPN-style access where it is needed
  • Still segmented by user, team or device posture
  • IT teams, power users and migrations

Internal APIs and microservices

Developers, integrations or support users reach specific internal APIs or microservices only, with no access to unrelated hosts or ports.

  • Named services, ports or application paths
  • Private dashboards, back-office APIs and management tools
  • Least privilege in distributed environments

Fixed internet routing

Remote workers' internet traffic leaves from a fixed public IP address, for SaaS allowlists, partner access controls and a consistent outbound identity.

  • A known source IP for staff working remotely
  • Third party systems that allowlist by IP address
  • Applied to chosen users, groups or traffic

Plans and Prices

GENAccess is priced from £5 per user per month, with one exit node included on every plan. Additional exit or routing nodes are £10 a month each. Every plan is a 12 month contract, billed monthly, and the SLA column shows the service level that comes with it.

Larger deployments, resilient multi-node designs and complex routing requirements may need a design of their own; talk to us before ordering. The service is provided under our Managed VPN Policy, alongside the Framework Agreement.

Managed VPN Questions

Is this a consumer VPN?

No. GENAccess connects your own staff, contractors and devices to your own business network and systems, securely and under policies GEN design and manage for you. It is business remote access, with a fixed office IP address for SaaS allowlists, rather than a service for browsing the internet from somewhere else.

Can contractors have access to one server only?

Yes. A user or group can be limited to a single server, for example one Windows server over RDP and its supporting management ports, without any view of the rest of the network. Access can also be limited to a project or a period of time, and every change is recorded, so there is a history of who was given access to what, and when.

What is an exit node?

An exit node is a routing node on your corporate LAN that carries VPN traffic between remote users and the internal resources they are allowed to reach. Every plan includes one. Additional exit nodes are £10 a month each, and are used for capacity, resilience and failover, or to reach other sites and network segments.

What is the contract term?

Every GENAccess plan is a 12 month contract, billed monthly. Pricing starts at £5 per user per month with one exit node included, and additional exit nodes are £10 a month each.

Can our SaaS applications see a fixed office IP address?

Yes. Remote users' internet traffic can be routed so it leaves from a fixed public IP address, which suits SaaS allowlists, partner access controls and any third party system that trusts a known source address. It can be applied to everyone, or only to chosen users, groups or traffic.

Will it work from hotels and guest Wi-Fi?

The platform can be deployed to connect over HTTPS-based paths, which helps users connect from hotels, guest Wi-Fi, mobile networks and other restrictive networks where traditional VPN traffic is often blocked or unreliable.

What are posture checks?

Posture checks are rules about a device's security state, such as operating system version, disk encryption, endpoint protection and enrolment, used to allow, restrict or block access. A valid user on a device that does not meet your baseline can still have their access limited.

Does GEN know our users' passwords?

No, never. Each user sets their own password when they onboard, and GEN do not create, hold or see it at any point. Managing the service does not require knowing anybody's password.

Can one user connect through another user's device?

No. Every peer, meaning each device connected to the VPN, is tied to the user who enrolled it. A different user cannot sign in on that peer with their own credentials and borrow its connection or its access, so access always follows the person, not the device they happen to be using.

Do we have to manage it ourselves?

No. GENAccess is fully managed. GEN design, configure and run the service, including onboarding, policy design, routing, exit nodes, and site to site and hybrid cloud requirements, with UK based support.
