Aviatrix Distributed Cloud Firewall for Kubernetes Solution

The Aviatrix Kubernetes solution enhances cloud networking by focusing on network security, cost efficiency, and flexibility for organizations. Tailored for containerized enterprise applications, it seamlessly integrates with Kubernetes, dynamically adapting to scale changes without manual intervention. Leveraging the Distributed Cloud Firewall (DCF)'s advanced features, users can establish security policies based on native container workload identities.

By extending the SmartGroup identity catalog to include Kubernetes attributes such as Pod and Service addresses, DCF rules can now provide security coverage across both Kubernetes and VM environments. This ensures a comprehensive approach to network security, allowing protection for applications deployed anywhere within your infrastructure.

Aviatrix optimizes IP address utilization within Kubernetes clusters, preventing address exhaustion and simplifying deployment processes. Advanced NAT capabilities enable seamless connectivity for Pods within the organization, spanning both cloud and on-premises environments.

Currently the Aviatrix Kubernetes solution:

  • Is only available for AWS and Azure

  • Only enforces DCF rules on traffic from the Kubernetes clusters to anywhere outside the VPC/VNet
