KUBE+ Features and Capabilities

AppViewX KUBE+ is a powerful control plane that offers centralized visibility and management for certificates across Kubernetes and container workloads through its integrated components. With KUBE+, you can maintain up-to-date certificate inventories, track certificate chain of trust, locations, expiration dates, and crypto standards.

The platform enables you to establish and enforce enterprise-wide PKI policies and role-based access controls, providing enhanced security. KUBE+ also facilitates easy audits and compliance validation with comprehensive reporting and logging functionalities.

Moreover, the seamless integration with both public trust and private trust Certificate Authorities (CAs) simplifies the management of the entire certificate lifecycle, ensuring a smooth and efficient process.

Simplifying and Securing Certificate Management in Kubernetes

Simplify and Modernize Certificate Lifecycle Management (CLM) in Kubernetes

AppViewX KUBE+ is a comprehensive certificate lifecycle management solution for Kubernetes environments. It provides a central solution to discover, manage, automate, and govern certificates (or machine identities) across cloud-native containerized workloads and Kubernetes infrastructure. By bringing together visibility, automation, and policy-driven control, KUBE+ bakes security into the core of DevOps pipelines and Kubernetes management.

3 Steps to Bridge the Gap between Agility and Security in Kubernetes
  1. Get Visibility into all SSL/TLS certificates across your Kubernetes environments.
  2. Enforce PKI policies to ensure the use of compliant CAs and strong crypto-standards.
  3. Automate end-to-end Certificate Lifecycle Management.

KUBE+ Features

AppViewX KUBE+ offers comprehensive lifecycle management of x.509 digital certificates across K8s clusters and container workloads. It comes equipped with a variety of features, including the following:
  • Visibility & Control: This platform offers a unified solution for discovering, maintaining, and ensuring compliance of TLS certificates across Kubernetes clusters deployed in on-premises, cloud, or hybrid cloud environments.
  • Full TLS coverage on K8s: Automated provisioning and management of TLS certificates used for Pod-to-Pod Communication (mTLS), Ingress Traffic, Ephemeral Pods and Self-Signed Kubernetes Infrastructure certificates.
  • Integrate with Enterprise PKI: Seamlessly integrate with your enterprise's Public Key Infrastructure (PKI) to issue certificates from the customer's chosen Public or Private Certificate Authority (CA).
  • High Availability & Resiliency: PKI that is always available with Offline CA issuance.
  • Business Continuity: Use workflow orchestration to simplify and streamline the process of issuing Enterprise PKI certificates.
  • Ecosystem: A single, unified platform that integrates CA, Vault, TLS keystores, ITSM, the K8s platform, and DevOps Tools.
  • Governance: Enable full control and auditing of the certificate issuance process for certificates managed across Kubernetes infrastructure.
