Frequently Asked Questions
What is a Kubernetes WAF and why do I need it?
A Kubernetes WAF (Web Application Firewall) protects containerized applications from web-based attacks by inspecting traffic at the application layer. It's essential for securing microservices, APIs, and cloud-native workloads running in Kubernetes environments against threats like SQL injection, cross-site scripting, and data exfiltration.
How many pods can the Cisco Kubernetes WAF RP protect?
The Cisco Kubernetes WAF RP is licensed to protect up to 1000 pods, making it suitable for large-scale containerized deployments. The solution automatically discovers and protects new pods as your Kubernetes cluster scales.
Does this WAF solution integrate with existing Kubernetes clusters?
Yes, the Kubernetes WAF RP integrates natively with Kubernetes environments, supporting automatic pod discovery, dynamic policy application, and seamless scaling. It works with standard Kubernetes distributions and supports multi-cluster deployments for hybrid cloud architectures.
What compliance standards does the Kubernetes WAF RP support?
The solution provides compliance reporting and enforcement for major standards including PCI-DSS, HIPAA, and GDPR, helping organizations meet regulatory requirements while protecting containerized workloads with centralized security policies.
