The Containment Era is here. →Explore

The Containment Platform for Every Cloud Workload

Realize NIST & CISA's Zero Trust goals. CNSF is the embedded enforcement fabric that makes Zero Trust a reality.

When prevention fails and detection is too slow, containment decides whether the incident becomes a breach.

Platform CNSF Hero

Your Largest Attack Surface Isn't at the Edge. It's Between Workloads. The Containment Platform governs every workload, every path.

The cloud vaporized the traditional perimeter. This created a new battleground: the unmonitored, implicitly trusted pathways between your workloads. Attackers now bypass edge defenses and move laterally to exfiltrate data undetected.

Architectural Complexity
Architectural Complexity

92% of organizations are multi-cloud, each with unique, incompatible security tools. Your apps are no longer monolithic, but ephemeral containers and functions.

Shadow AI
"Shadow AI" & K8s Risk

The rush to adopt AI creates "Shadow AI" agents that bypass old controls. Kubernetes' complexity also leaves critical risks, like lateral threat movement, overlooked.

Ephemeral workloads
Ephemeral Workloads

Applications are no longer monolithic. They are transient ecosystems of containers and functions that are created and destroyed in seconds.

Chokepoint Security vs. Containment Architecture

A chokepoint governs the traffic that routes through it. Communication Governance governs every path.

"The distinction is not 'egress filtering vs. no egress filtering.' The distinction is where the enforcement lives."

Inside Real Breaches: How CNSF Stops Lateral Movement and Data Theft

Learn from MGM Resorts and MOVEit: attackers used social engineering and supply chain exploits to move east-west and steal data. The whitepaper shows how Cloud Native Security Fabric blocks lateral movement, contains blast radius, and stops unintentional data leakage.

Containment, Built Into the Fabric

Instead of bolting security onto the edge, Aviatrix Cloud Native Security Fabric™(CNSF) weaves runtime enforcement into the cloud fabric. In-line points broker least-privilege connections, while one control plane applies consistent policy everywhere.

  • AVIATRIX CLOUD NATIVE SECURITY FABRIC (CNSF)

    Here’s How CNSF Changes Cloud Security:

    • Embedded

      Policies live inside your cloud—not the edge.

    • Dynamic

      Segmentation moves with workloads automatically.

    • Agentless

      No agents, no middleboxes, no bottlenecks.

    • Real-time

      Every session verified instantly, with no lag.

    • Pervasive

      Unified protection across multicloud, on-prem, edge, containers, functions and AI workloads with consistent security.

    • Transparent

      Developer-friendly. Operates below the app layer—no code changes or DevOps friction.

    • Frictionless

      Strong controls with negligible latency.

Zero Trust for Networking

Aviatrix Zero Trust for Networking, built on High-Performance Encryption (HPE) secures the fabric itself—ensuring that every connection is encrypted, auditable, and performance-optimized.

Minimize Your Cloud Breach Risk

CNSF is the missing "how" for Zero Trust, delivering the implementation for NIST & CISA goals . As an in-line enforcement fabric, it provides measurable outcomes: fewer breaches, consistent policy, and simpler compliance.

Pattern Image
Platform-Minimize-Your-Cloud-Breach-Risk
  • Reduce Cloud Attack Surface

    Hide apps behind identity-based policies. Workloads are isolated and invisible by default, shrinking exposure.

  • Stop Live Attacks

    CNSF is in-line, not just a scanner. It contains threats by default, minimizing the blast radius.

  • Prevent Data Exfiltration & Prove Compliance

    Default end-to-end encryption secures all in-transit data per CISA mandates. Unified audit trails and policy abstraction simplify compliance across AWS, Azure, and GCP.

  • Gain Measurable Outcomes

    Track reduced dwell times and breach risks with centralized visibility. Embed Zero Trust for K8s, serverless, and AI—accelerate innovation while proving ROI to CISOs.
