iCheck Connector

If your website is not available publicly or if you would like to test in pre-prod, stage or any other test environment, you will need iCheck Connector to establish a secure connection between our test infrastructure and your network.

This secure connection remains active only during your test session and as soon as test session is finished, this connection is closed. Not only that, this tunnel is established only between a specific machine - dedicated to you and your network. Your network remains inaccessible from all the other machines in our infrastructure.
