Boundary vs Foxpass

Boundary provides authenticated, identity-based access to infrastructure without requiring users to connect directly to its underlying network. It supports just-in-time and least-privilege access, role-based authorization, and single sign-on through OIDC or LDAP. Users can reach TCP, SSH, RDP, HTTPS, RDS, Kubernetes, and database targets through familiar clients such as SSH tools, PuTTY, Remote Desktop, database clients, and web browsers. Boundary can broker credentials and integrate with HashiCorp Vault for short-lived dynamic credentials and credential injection. Target discovery can be automated, with dynamic host catalogs for AWS, Azure, and GCP available in HCP Boundary. Deployment options include managed HCP Boundary, optionally with customer-run workers, and self-managed Boundary Enterprise. The Community Edition is listed at free. HCP Boundary Standard and Plus have usage-based billing, with monthly rates per user depending on edition; Standard includes Vault credential injection and audit-log streaming, while Plus adds session recording. Enterprise is self-managed and has full feature parity with HCP Boundary. Boundary supports Terraform, a REST API, CLI, and SDK.

Foxpass Cloud RADIUS and Cloud PKI provide identity- and certificate-based authentication for Wi-Fi and VPN connections without hardware or local servers. Every plan includes Cloud LDAP, a hosted directory service for VPNs, legacy apps, and system logins. The Standard license adds EAP-TTLS authentication, group-based access control, role-based administration, and a web console and API. Advanced adds EAP-TLS, Cloud PKI, automated certificate lifecycle management, and device posture-based access control. Foxpass supports integrations with Microsoft Entra ID, Google Workspace, Okta, OneLogin, legacy Active Directory, and custom LDAP directories. Cloud PKI integrates with MDMs including Intune, Jamf, Kandji, and Addigy. Base plans retain logs for 24 hours, with an add-on extending retention to 90 days. An Engineering License add-on supports Linux, macOS, and SSH workflows, including SSH key rotation and sudo access policy enforcement. Dedicated cloud tenancy and self-hosted deployments are custom options; self-hosting is limited to enterprise customers. The standalone Cloud PKI plan is $0.50 a month, billed annually. A free trial is available, but there is no free plan.
