A secure SSH terminal, right in your browser
Connect to any server from your browser with Quantum Shield (AES-256-GCM) encryption, full session recording, and live log streaming — no local client, no keys lying around.
AES-256-GCM Quantum Shield encryption
Every access control you need
One portal for every server
From a public web host to a private database box, PulseGuard puts a secure, audited terminal one click away.
Browser-based terminal
Open a full SSH session to any server directly from the PulseGuard dashboard — no local client, no PuTTY, no SSH config files to maintain.
Quantum Shield AES-256-GCM
Every session is wrapped in AES-256-GCM authenticated encryption. Keys never leave the server; your connection is secure from browser to host.
Session recording & playback
Every terminal session is captured frame by frame. Replay any past session exactly as it happened for audits, debugging or training.
Real-time log streaming
Stream journalctl, nginx, apache and syslog output live in the browser — no shell required. Filter, search and share log views instantly.
Role-based access control
10 granular permissions let you grant read-only log access to one team and full shell access to another — all managed from one place.
No exposed keys
SSH keys are stored centrally and never distributed to developer machines. Revoke access instantly without rotating keys across every workstation.
See the box, not just the shell
Fix the right thing, faster
The SSH Portal pairs your terminal with live server health metrics and AI diagnosis. Instead of guessing whether that spike is CPU, memory or a rogue process, PulseGuard shows you the answer beside your cursor — so you spend less time investigating and more time resolving.
Disk at 85% — /var/log grew 3.2 GB in 24h. Recommend rotating nginx logs; projected full in ~6 days.
How it works
In the terminal in under two minutes
Add a server and connect
Paste your host, choose a stored key or paste credentials, and PulseGuard establishes an encrypted Quantum Shield tunnel to your server. Setup takes under two minutes.
Open an encrypted session in the browser
Click 'Open terminal' and a full interactive shell opens in your browser tab — wrapped in AES-256-GCM encryption, session-recorded from the first keystroke.
Everything is recorded and auditable
When you close the session it's sealed in the audit log with a full replay. Managers and compliance teams can review any session at any time, with no extra tooling.
FAQ
SSH Portal questions, answered
Do I need an SSH client or any local software?
No. The PulseGuard SSH Portal runs entirely in your browser using a WebSocket-to-SSH proxy. There is nothing to install on your laptop — any modern browser on any OS works.
What is Quantum Shield and how is the connection encrypted?
Quantum Shield is PulseGuard's label for the AES-256-GCM authenticated encryption applied to every SSH session. AES-256-GCM provides both confidentiality and message integrity, and all key material is held server-side — your SSH private keys are never sent to your browser.
Are sessions recorded, and how long are recordings kept?
Yes. Every interactive session is recorded at the terminal level (a precise input/output log) and stored as a replayable audit trail. Retention depends on your plan — 30 days on Pro, 90 days on Business, and configurable on Enterprise.
Can I stream logs to the browser without opening a full interactive shell?
Yes. The log-streaming feature pipes journalctl, /var/log/nginx/access.log, syslog or any file path into a read-only live view — no shell access is granted, so you can give read-only operators log visibility without SSH permission.
How does access control work across teams?
PulseGuard uses role-based access with 10 granular permissions. You can grant one role interactive SSH, another read-only log streaming, and a third nothing at all. Revoke access from a single panel and it takes effect immediately — no key rotation required.
