Policies Publisher

Policies Publisher is an advanced Cisco Secure Workload feature allowing third -party vendor to implement their own enforcement algorithms that are optimized for network appliances such as load balancers or firewalls. This feature is realized by publishing defined policies to a Kafka instance residing within Secure Workload cluster and by providing customers with Kafka client certificates, which allows third-party vendor code to retrieve policies from Kafka and to translate them into their network appliances configuration appropriately.

This section aims to describe the procedure third-party vendors, in short users in the following, must perform to exploit the Policies Publisher feature with Java on Linux.
