ziNet Home
ziNet ("zone of the interior" network) is a Security Fabric for DevOps and IT Engineers. It integrates centralized, real time policy management with cloud infrastructure, DevOps tools and applications by overlaying a fabric layer on top of the native capabilities. It can work with existing servers and tools, or it can be used to create a new infrastructure from the ground up. In both cases, ziNet will improve DevOps security by ensuring that the defined security policies are enforced at all times while also supporting engineering velocity and development access requirements.
ziNet comes with core modules and application modules. Core Fabric must be installed on a host in order to be part of a ziNet. Application Fabrics are optional.
