ADAMnetworks, the Canadian cybersecurity leader in Preemptive Defense and creator of the world’s first Zero Trust resolver, today announced a technology partnership with VyOS Networks. The partnership fuses VyOS’s cutting-edge, enterprise-grade networking platform with ADAMnetworks’ agentless Zero Trust Connectivity (ZTc) to secure cloud infrastructure, mission-critical on-premises operations, and remote access traffic.

Under the agreement, ADAMnetworks will serve as the main seller, marketplace item owner, and primary support provider for the joint solution. VyOS provides advanced routing, secure connectivity, and deployment flexibility that organizations already use across bare metal, cloud, and edge environments. ADAMnetworks delivers the Preemptive Defense layer through adam:ONE®, the world’s first Zero Trust resolver, so every Internet-bound connection is denied by default unless it is requested by a verified device, to a verified destination, and allowed by policy.

From Detect-and-Respond to Prevent-and-Verify

Traditional detection-and-response tools cannot keep pace with AI-enhanced attacks. By the time a signature, heuristic, or behavior model fires, command-and-control and exfiltration may already be underway. ADAMnetworks designed their Preemptive Defense solution to close that gap: default-deny-all networking that makes detection optional, containment automatic, and Zero Trust practical on every device, user, and protocol, including IoT, OT/ICS, and unmanaged endpoints that agent-based tools leave behind.

adam:ONE® enforces Don’t Talk To Strangers (DTTS)®, patented technology that enforces DNS as a root of trust and denies direct-IP connections unless they were first requested by a verified device through DNS and permitted by policy. Reflex AI™ writes allowlist decisions in under 20 milliseconds, so users and operators are not asked to trade productivity for posture. DNSharmony® aggregates protective DNS intelligence from multiple providers in real time, so a single resolver’s blind spot cannot become an attacker’s egress path.

“Traditional Detection-Response solutions cannot keep up with the speeds at which attackers are moving with the help of adversarial AI. Bringing a Preemptive Defense capability to defenders in a practical and scalable way is critical for protecting the people and systems we all care about. Pairing that capability with VyOS gives infrastructure and security teams a world-first: default-deny Zero Trust Connectivity on a networking platform they can own, automate, and deploy anywhere.”— David Redekop, Founder and CEO, ADAMnetworks

What the Joint Solution Delivers

  • World-first Zero Trust resolver at the network layer. adam:ONE® on VyOS stops ransomware, APTs, zero-days, and C2 callbacks at egress, including unknown and detection-evading malware, before payloads execute.

  • Preemptive Defense for every environment. The same posture covers cloud workloads, mission-critical on-prem segments, and remote access users without requiring an endpoint agent on every asset.

  • Open networking without a security gap. VyOS remains the core routing, firewall, and VPN foundation — Linux-based, automated, and free of lock-in, while ADAMnetworks supplies the security control plane and customer support.

  • Encryption-friendly by design. ZTc operates within TLS 1.3, DoH, DoT, and related encrypted flows without decryption, preserving sovereignty and remaining viable as encryption standards advance.

  • Force multiplier for Security Operations Control (SOC) and Incident Response (IR) Teams. For SOC operators: Denied connection attempts surface as high-signal events, but with egress control, threats are already neutralized. When adam:ONE® is applied to a network where a breach is already in progress, ZTc can impose radio silence to C2 and exfiltration paths in hours rather than days.

“VyOS gives organizations the flexibility to build networking architectures around their real operational needs. Together with ADAMnetworks, we add a world-first Preemptive Security layer for infrastructure teams, security teams, and remote access users.”— Santiago Blanquet, Chief Revenue Officer, VyOS Networks
