LAS VEGAS–(BUSINESS WIRE)–Please replace the release with the following corrected version due to

The corrected release reads:
TIGERA ACHIEVES AMAZON WEB SERVICES CONTAINER COMPETENCY STATUS AT
LAUNCH
Security and compliance solutions for Kubernetes platforms acknowledged
by Amazon Web Services
Tigera today announced that it is an Amazon Web Services (AWS) Partner
Network (APN) Launch Partner for the AWS Container Competency.
Achieving AWS Container Competency status follows a thorough assessment
of Tigera’s technical capabilities including compliance with the AWS
Well Architected Framework, the completeness of its container solution
offerings, and their track record working with customers to successfully
deploy those solutions on AWS.
Tigera’s solutions enable zero trust security and compliance for
Kubernetes platforms, including Amazon Elastic Container Service for
Kubernetes (Amazon EKS). They comprise:
-
Tigera Calico, a free and open source solution for Kubernetes network
policy, that is pre-integrated with Amazon EKS -
Tigera Secure Cloud Edition (CE), a solution available on AWS
Marketplace that allows development teams using Amazon EKS to easily
meet internal security and compliance requirements -
Tigera Secure Enterprise Edition (EE), a complete solution for
organizations deploying multi-cluster or hybrid architectures, or
those needing enterprise management and policy controls
Following recent enhancements to Amazon EKS, Tigera Secure EE is now
fully supported on both self-managed Kubernetes and Amazon EKS clusters,
and adds enterprise-grade zero trust security and compliance
capabilities including:
-
Hierarchical policy controls with role-based access controls, to
enable multiple teams to independently manage their respective
security policies -
Tigera builds on Calico and Istio to provide both network and
application layer security policies in a single unified
Kubernetes-native policy for both traditional layer 3/4 firewall and
layer 7 web application firewall capabilities -
Extensive flow logs for all application traffic including container
context beyond what is possible with traditional network analysis
tools or VPC flow logs - Dynamic graphical visualization of network flows
- Intrusion detection, alerting and remediation.
