Frequently Asked Questions
What is Kubernetes WAF RP and how does it protect containerized applications?
The Cisco Kubernetes WAF RP is a cloud-native web application firewall designed specifically for Kubernetes environments. It provides real-time protection against web-based attacks including SQL injection, cross-site scripting (XSS), and DDoS threats targeting containerized microservices. The solution integrates directly with Kubernetes orchestration, enabling automatic policy enforcement across all protected pods without requiring external hardware or complex network configurations.
How many pods can this 20-pod license protect?
This license is sized for deployments of up to 20 Kubernetes pods. Each pod represents a containerized application instance. If your infrastructure requires protection for more pods, Cisco offers larger SKUs (e.g., 200-pod variants) that scale to enterprise deployments. The pod-based licensing model allows you to pay only for the capacity you need.
What is included in the 1-year license term?
The 1-year license includes continuous WAF protection, threat intelligence updates, security policy management, and vendor support from Cisco. License renewal options are available at the end of the term. The subscription model ensures your security posture remains current with emerging threats throughout the license period.
Is this Kubernetes WAF RP compatible with my existing Kubernetes platform?
The Cisco Kubernetes WAF RP is designed for native Kubernetes integration and works with major Kubernetes distributions including on-premises clusters, AWS EKS, Azure AKS, and Google GKE. Deployment is handled through Kubernetes-native methods (Helm charts, operators), making integration seamless for DevOps teams already familiar with container orchestration tools.
