Aviatrix Kubernetes Firewall

Aviatrix Kubernetes Firewall governs traffic entering, leaving, and moving between Kubernetes workloads across clusters and environments. It applies Zero Trust controls at the cloud network layer, outside Kubernetes clusters, so deployment does not require sidecars, agents, CNI replacement, or application changes. Policies can target pods, namespaces, services, and labels using Kubernetes-native identities. A centralized control plane manages policy across multicloud and multicluster environments, with automation options including Terraform, Kubernetes custom resource definitions, GitOps, and policies in Kubernetes manifests. Supported environments include AWS, Microsoft Azure, Google Cloud, and on-premises deployments, including EKS, AKS, and GKE. The product offers traffic visibility, observability, and anomaly detection, along with distributed firewalling, threat prevention, URL filtering, egress control, micro-segmentation, TLS decryption, DNS firewalling, and advanced NAT for overlapping address ranges. It can use a shared security model for containerized and legacy VM workloads. There is no free plan.
