Tenant-Based Firewall Rules

This page explains how to create and manage Tenant-based firewall rules in DuploCloud for your Google Cloud Platform (GCP) environment. Tenant firewall rules control network traffic at the Tenant level within your infrastructure, enabling you to set access policies specific to individual Tenants.

These rules provide isolation and customized security boundaries between Tenant workloads, helping you enforce Tenant-specific network controls.

Common use cases for Tenant firewall rules include:

• Permitting communication between trusted Tenants

• Restricting access to sensitive services within a Tenant

• Blocking malicious traffic targeting a Tenant’s resources

You can create, update, and manage Tenant firewall rules directly from the DuploCloud Portal, giving you granular control over multi-Tenant environments.
