Valtix

Valtix is a multicloud network security platform delivering agentless, cloud-native firewalling — ingress WAF/IDS/IPS, egress TLS decryption and exfiltration prevention, and east-west inspection — across AWS, Azure, GCP, and OCI, driven by continuous cloud asset discovery and tag-based dynamic policy. Founded in 2018 and acquired by Cisco in 2023, the product is sold today as Cisco Multicloud Defense; the Valtix documentation site and the verified Terraform provider (valtix-security/valtix) remain live and actively maintained under the Valtix name, while the standalone website and commercial pages redirect to Cisco.

Valtix is profiled on the APIs.io network. Tagged areas include Company, Security, Cloud Security, Network Security, and Multicloud.

The Valtix catalog on APIs.io includes 1 event-driven AsyncAPI specification.

Valtix’s developer surface includes documentation, getting-started guide, support, changelog, authentication, and 8 more developer resources.
