In an Oct. 15 article on Forbes.com, contributor Jaime Catmull explored the “hidden tax” companies pay due to cyberattacks, not just in ransom payments or remediation costs, but in soaring insurance premiums, per-user licensing fees, and the operational drag of managing disparate VPN and network systems. The piece outlines how these costs quietly erode margins and hamper growth, even for firms that never make headlines for a breach.
Catmull also noted how some companies are beginning to “opt out” of the traditional model of layered legacy VPNs and are rethinking how they build and manage a secure network infrastructure.
Within that context, ZeroTier was highlighted as part of the emerging toolkit enterprises are using to avoid the “tax” of inefficient, costly legacy networking. By unifying connectivity with software-defined networks, ZeroTier enables organizations to reduce complexity, lower licensing, and hardware refresh cycles, and avoid the hidden drag of fragmented access architectures. We’re proud to be featured in this conversation as one of the tools leading the charge in helping enterprises take control of connectivity and cost.
