Cloud Firewall
The Filess Cloud Firewall provides an additional layer of security for Dedicated databases by strictly controlling network access.
Features
- Default Deny: By default, no incoming connections are allowed from the public internet (unless configured otherwise).
- IP Allow-listing: Specify individual IP addresses (e.g., your office VPN, CI/CD runner) or CIDR blocks (e.g., your AWS VPC subnet) that are allowed to connect.
- Real-time Updates: Rules are applied instantly without restarting the database.
Configuration
You can manage firewall rules via the Console or API:
- Go to your Database Dashboard.
- Navigate to the Security tab.
- Under Firewall Rules, click Add Rule.
- Enter a name (e.g., "Office") and the IP/CIDR.
- Click Save.
