Multi-Cloud Security Policies on a Shared Fabric

· 1 min read · Peer1IX Team

Multi-Cloud Security Policies on a Shared Fabric

Each cloud has its own security tools. A shared fabric lets you apply consistent controls to traffic moving between them.

The consistency problem

Every cloud provides its own security groups, network policies and firewalls. When workloads span clouds, keeping rules aligned across platforms is difficult, and gaps appear.

Use the fabric as a control point

When inter-cloud traffic passes through the Peer1IX fabric, it crosses a point you control. Peer1ix FWaaS can inspect and filter that traffic with one policy set.

Segment by trust

Use separate virtual circuits for different purposes — production, development, partner access. Apply different policies to each.

Zero-trust thinking

Network controls are one layer. Combine them with identity-based access, encryption and least-privilege permissions in each cloud.

Central logging

Send logs from the fabric and each cloud to one place so investigations do not have to stitch together different formats.

Design consistent multi-cloud security with Peer1IX.
