UNMS (Unified Network Management System)

Secure (supports TLS/SSL for encrypting connections between devices)
Permission-based security
Uses Software Defined Perimeter (SDP), the username/password login is replaced with Single-Packet Authorization (SPA), and the receiving device cannot be seen by hackers. This introduces an additional layer of security and is beneficial with or without SSL/TLS.
Guaranteed message delivery (no data loss or duplication of data)
