Aegis traffic security enforcement

Aegis enforces transit security policy in live traffic paths so teams can adopt stronger cryptographic profiles incrementally without blind cutovers.

Aegis

Built for controlled policy adoption under operational constraints.

  • Policy-based negotiation strategy
  • Safe fallback and rollback controls
  • Posture and compatibility telemetry
  • Evidence generation for audits

Who this is for

Teams that need in-line enforcement

  • Platform teams that run gateways or service mesh boundaries.
  • Security teams that need one policy model across ingress, east-west, and egress traffic.
  • Programs that require staged rollout evidence before expanding scope.

Enforces policy in transit

Aegis applies cryptographic controls in front of workloads so policy decisions are enforced where connections are established.

Supports staged adoption

Teams can scope by environment and traffic segment, then expand after compatibility and latency checks.

Publishes operator evidence

Aegis reports negotiation outcomes to Axis so rollout decisions and results are reviewable later.

Trust boundary with Axis

Aegis responsibilities

  • Enforces transit policy in traffic paths.
  • Collects compatibility and posture telemetry.
  • Does not own tenant policy approval workflow.

Axis responsibilities

  • Defines policy lifecycle and rollout checkpoints.
  • Stores rollout records and audit receipts.
  • Does not terminate workload traffic in place of Aegis.

Deployment constraints

  • EC2 gateway model and Kubernetes DaemonSet model are both supported.
  • Rollout order should be environment-segmented to contain blast radius.
  • Control-plane connectivity and cert trust must be validated before enforcement mode changes.
