Strengthen your Apache Kafka security with Kouncil

In a production environment, topics in Apache Kafka may contain sensitive data or business information, which means there are many additional requirements related to data privacy and security. Kouncil features ensure compliance with applicable regulations.

FEATURES

Grant permissions for Apache Kafka

Kouncil gives you control over Apache Kafka user authentication and authorization. Create access patterns for user groups and configure Kouncil with LDAP or Active Directory to automatically authorize access and verify users.

FEATURES

Manage access to functions and data

Precisely manage access to functions and objects in Apache Kafka (e.g., topics, consumer groups, or search engine) and specific data for defined user groups.

FEATURES

Data masking

Kouncil automatically obfuscates data fields with information such as payment card numbers that should not be visible to certain user groups.

FEATURES

Audit logs

Trace operations performed in Apache Kafka. The capability to check what a user searched for, what data they entered, edited, or deleted will help you quickly investigate incidents and efficiently resolve any issue.

FEATURES

Incident alerts
