Step 1: Create Your Account

Start by signing up with your preferred method:

🔹 Sign up with Google or GitHub (Recommended)
🔹 Or, use your email and password

Step 2: Download the Border0 Client

To interact with Border0, you’ll need to install the Border0 Client.

💡 Think of it like a VPN client—but with a modern touch! Border0 gives you seamless, secure access while unlocking advanced functionality beyond a traditional VPN.

You can find more detailed per OS installation instructions on the links below:

🖥 MacOS
🪟 Windows
🐧 Linux

🔹 The Desktop Client includes the CLI, so you get both graphical and command-line access in one package.

Step 3: Install Your First Connector

💡 Border0 is both a VPN and a Privileged Access Management (PAM) solution.
The Border0 Connector acts as an application proxy for PAM and also serves as the VPN gateway, ensuring secure, identity-aware access to private resources, without exposing them to the internet.

How to Install your FirstConnector (for more details also see "Installing the connector")

1️⃣ Browse to the Connectors page in the the Border0 Portal, and select "Add New Connector"
2️⃣ Select your preferred installation method and follow the instructions.

🚀 Once installed, you can create resources, which will appear in your Border0 client—allowing you to securely access them with a single click!
