My team have spent years as developers and operators, and we’ve been incredibly frustrated by a common, nagging problem: secure server access. We’ve all been there—the endless authorized_keys file management, the VPN configs that break at the worst possible time, or the constant fear that someone who left the team still has access to production. It’s an exhausting and friction-filled process that takes away from what we should actually be doing.
We looked for a better way, but every solution we found was either too complex, too expensive, or still relied on the same outdated methods. So, we decided to build our own. That's how Alpacon was born.
We designed Alpacon from the ground up to solve these pain points. It's a zero-trust platform that completely removes the need for SSH keys and VPNs. Our goal was to create a tool that is not only secure by default but also so simple that it gets out of your way.
Here’s how it works:
Instant Onboarding: Add a new team member and grant them secure, role-based access in seconds. No more key management.
Auditable Access: Every action is logged and auditable. You always know who is accessing what, and when.
Granular Control: Instead of broad firewall rules, you can define precise, least-privilege access policies for every user and resource.
We’re now opening our beta program to a small group of users. This isn't just about launching a product; it’s about starting a conversation and getting feedback from people who live and breathe this problem every day. Your insights will be invaluable in helping us shape Alpacon into the tool we all wish we had.
We’re genuinely excited to see how you use it and what you think.
