One SIM. Global coverage. Security built in.

One pool. All your SIMs. Around the world.

Enterprise IoT deployments run across dozens of countries and thousands of devices. Managing multiple carriers, patching VPN sprawl, and troubleshooting with stale data slows everything down. IXT solves all three. One global SIM, real-time visibility, and Zero Trust security delivered natively at the network level.

The quick intro

IXT is a full MVNO that provides enterprise IoT connectivity across 600+ mobile networks in 190+ countries.

Its product suite includes a global IoT SIM with multi-IMSI and eSIM support, a shared Global Data Pool, a private networking layer (SecureNet), Zero Trust security powered by Zscaler ZTNA and Illumio, and the IXT Connectivity Management Platform (CMP) with real-time device visibility.

IXT operates its own core network infrastructure and is the only IoT connectivity provider delivering Zscaler ZTNA and Illumio visual traffic segmentation natively through the SIM, without requiring agent software on devices.

IXT Zero Trust extends Zero Trust to OT and IoT endpoints over cellular, with clientless browser-based Privileged Remote Access that supports session recording, time-limited third-party access, and employee co-presence.

Enterprise IoT has an infrastructure problem

Your devices connect across borders, handle sensitive data, and interact with third-party vendors. The connectivity infrastructure under them was not built for that.

 

Most IoT providers offer a SIM and a data plan. Some add a private APN or a VPN tunnel. What they do not offer is Zero Trust access control, visual traffic mapping, or infrastructure you own. You get a carrier relationship, not a security architecture.

 

The result is fragmented management, traffic running across the public internet, VPN complexity that grows with every new market you enter, and no audit trail when regulators ask questions.

Global SIM coverage

Global SIM coverage 600+ networks, 190+ countries

One SIM works across 2G, 3G, 4G, 5G, LTE-M, and NB-IoT networks worldwide. Multi-IMSI technology selects the strongest available signal. eSIM and iSIM support, with all physical form factors. SIMs activate on first use, so you only pay when a device goes live.

Global Data Pool no stranded data, no surprise costs

Every SIM draws from a single shared data pool across all countries. No per-device caps. No overage surprises. Add or remove SIMs without renegotiating contracts. Costs stay predictable as your fleet grows.

Zero Trust security

Zero Trust security powered by Zscaler ZTNA and Illumio segmentation

IXT Zero Trust is built from two integrated components. Zero Trust Connectivity, powered by Zscaler ZTNA, makes all traffic device-initiated. No ports are exposed. No VPN clients are required on devices. Every session is verified before access is granted, and security policies are enforced at the network edge.

 

Zero Trust Visualisation, powered by Illumio, maps all device traffic in real time. Normal communication patterns are visible at a glance. Anomaly alerts fire when a device contacts an unexpected destination. Policy-based segmentation stops a compromised device from reaching the rest of your fleet.

 

This is the only solution that delivers Zscaler ZTNA and Illumio segmentation natively through the SIM, without client software on devices. It works on headless devices, OT equipment, and any cellular-connected endpoint.

Privileged Remote Access -

Privileged Remote Access - controlled third-party access without VPN distribution

Service technicians and vendors authenticate through a browser-based portal and run SSH, VNC, or RDP sessions directly in-browser. No VPN client is distributed. Access is scoped to specific devices, time-limited, and session-recorded. This is the feature that resolves the third-party vendor access problem in industrial and OT deployments.

Built for NIS2, GDPR, and regulated environments.

NIS2 requires enterprises to demonstrate risk management, access control, supply chain security, and incident containment for all connected assets. Standard IoT connectivity provides no access control, no traffic visibility, and no audit trail. That is an exposure.

IXT Zero Trust addresses each requirement directly. Device-initiated traffic eliminates exposed attack surfaces. Policy-based access control replaces flat network trust. Session recording and traffic logs provide the audit records regulators ask for. Anomaly detection and segmentation address incident detection and containment.

IXT does not claim NIS2 certification. The architecture is designed to support your compliance obligations. Your legal and compliance team should assess alignment with specific regulatory requirements.
