VPC Flow Logs

You can see the traffic into and out of, and in, your Amazon Virtual Private Cloud (AWSClosed Amazon® Web Services. Public cloud platform that offers global compute, storage, database, application and other cloud services. VPC) in CloudGuard. You can select traffic for any of your VPCs and then filter for specific flow items of interest. CloudGuard extracts this information from the cloud platform and enriches it with contextual information, such as source and target names if they are labeled. You can export the displayed information to a file.

In addition, you can see VPC flows from the Configuration Explorer (see Configuration Explorer).

Note - Configuration Explorer is available for AWS VPCs only.

Benefits

  • Console view of all VPC networks and flows on all cloud providers, all accounts, and regions.

  • See flow in network context (in Configuration Explorer, for AWS only).

  • Variety of filter and search options to narrow the scope, and look for specific flows of interest.
