Etude comparative
L'analyse de 12 solutions d'authentification et de sécurité révèle que Sunray occupe une position unique en tant que plateforme de sécurité intégrée, et non pas seulement en tant que service d'authentification.
Alors que les concurrents ne fournissent que des services d'authentification (60 à 216 dollars par an et par utilisateur), les entreprises ont toujours besoin de services distincts de WAF, de protection contre les attaques DDoS, de gestion des bots et de CDN (coûts d'infrastructure supplémentaires de 4 200 à 40 800 dollars par an).
L'avantage révolutionnaire de Sunray: Une pile de sécurité complète (authentification + WAF + DDoS + gestion des bots + CDN + SSL + limitation du débit) pour un coût total de 108 à 2 268 € par an, soit une économie de 95 à 98 % par rapport à une infrastructure de sécurité traditionnelle, avec un modèle de déploiement double unique (auto-hébergé + service géré) et une intégration avec Muppy pour un déploiement automatisé.

🛡️ Integrated Security Stack Analysis
Les coûts cachés des infrastructures
La plupart des solutions d'authentification ne fournissent que la couche d'authentification. Les entreprises ont toujours besoin de services distincts pour assurer la sécurité complète des applications Web :
Exigences traditionnelles en matière de sécurité :
Authentication Service: $60-200/user/year WAF Protection: $20-200/month ($240-2,400/year) DDoS Protection: $200-2,000/month ($2,400-24,000/year) Bot Management: $50-500/month ($600-6,000/year) CDN/Performance: $50-500/month ($600-6,000/year) Rate Limiting: $20-100/month ($240-1,200/year) SSL Management: $10-100/month ($120-1,200/year) TOTAL INFRASTRUCTURE: $4,200-40,800/year + per-user costs
Stack Sunray intégrée:
Complete Security Platform: €108-2,268/year total Includes: Auth + WAF + DDoS + Bot Management + CDN + Rate Limiting + SSL COST SAVINGS: 95-98% vs traditional stack
Competitive Advantage Matrix
Solution | Complete Stack | Additional Services Needed | True Annual Cost Examples |
Sunray | ✅ Everything included | None | €108 (20 users) • €948 (100 users) |
Cloudflare Access | ✅ Everything included | None | $720-1,680 (20 users) • $3,600-8,400 (100 users) |
Auth0/Okta | ❌ Auth only | WAF+DDoS+CDN+Bot ($4,200+/year) | $5,400+ (20 users) • $12,600+ (100 users) |
Authentik/Authelia | ❌ Auth only | WAF+DDoS+CDN+Bot ($4,200+/year) | $4,200+ (any size) |
Tailscale/Twingate | ❌ Network access only | WAF+DDoS+CDN+Bot ($4,200+/year) | $5,640+ (20 users) • $10,200+ (100 users) |
Enterprise PAM | ❌ System access only | Full web security stack ($8,000+/year) | $8,000+ (any size) |
Why This Matters
Pour les applications Web, vous avez besoin d'une pile de sécurité complète. Sunray est la seule solution (outre Cloudflare Access) qui offre :
- ✅ Authentication (passwordless passkeys)
- ✅ WAF Protection (OWASP Top 10, SQL injection, XSS)
- ✅ DDoS Mitigation (jusqu'aux attaques les plus importantes à l'échelle mondiale)
- ✅ Bot Management (défi/blocage automatique)
- ✅ Rate Limiting (per-IP and per-user)
- ✅ Edge Security (sub-100ms globally)
- ✅ SSL/TLS (certificats automatiques)
- ✅ CDN Performance (200+ global PoPs)
Le tout pour un total de 9 à 189 € par mois, contre 4 000 à 40 000 $ ou plus par an pour une configuration traditionnelle équivalente..
