Details

KakaoPay Securities introduced Cilium into its Kubernetes environment to solve the scalability and operational efficiency issues of its existing physical server-based gateway.

Cilium is a CNI based on eBPF technology that overcomes the limitations of the existing kube-proxy and provides powerful security policies and network visibility without any application code modification. In particular, through Hubble, it enables effective detection of anomalies by monitoring real-time network communication status and metrics.

Cilium Egress Gateway allows setting an egress NAT policy that assigns a consistent IP to outbound traffic from service Pods. This provides the following benefits.

  • Easy application and management of customized policies for specific services
  • Increased efficiency in external firewall management through consistent IP usage
  • Secured communication convenience in external institution integration and hybrid cloud environments
