About

The Knox API Gateway is designed as a reverse proxy with consideration for pluggability in the areas of policy enforcement, through providers and the backend services for which it proxies requests. Policy enforcement ranges from authentication/federation, authorization, audit, dispatch, hostmapping and content rewrite rules. Policy is enforced through a chain of providers that are defined within the topology deployment descriptor for each Apache Hadoop cluster gated by Knox. The cluster definition is also defined within the topology deployment descriptor and provides the Knox Gateway with the layout of the cluster for purposes of routing and translation between user facing URLs and cluster internals. Each Apache Hadoop cluster that is protected by Knox has its set of REST APIs represented by a single cluster specific application context path. This allows the Knox Gateway to both protect multiple clusters and present the REST API consumer with a single endpoint.

About

Opal Zero is a just-in-time access governance platform for AI agents that inventories every agent, maps it to an accountable owner, decides each access request, and enforces the decision in the MCP gateway already in place. It gives organizations one inventory across identity providers and AI platforms such as Okta, Entra, Anthropic, OpenAI, Bedrock AgentCore, and Cursor, showing what every agent can access and who owns it. Risk Center surfaces access that is off-purpose, unowned, or standing and routes issues to the appropriate owner with an inline fix. Paladin evaluates requests using policy and context, identifies the least-privileged path, respects owner boundaries, and shows the reasoning behind each decision. Policy Insights uses real agent behavior to identify unused access and opportunities to improve access policy instead of relying on one-off remediation. Gateway Enforcement writes approved decisions as scoped, time-bound policy into existing gateways.
