Create Encrypted Kubernetes Cluster

E2E Networks enables users to launch encrypted Kubernetes clusters to ensure protection of data at rest and in transit. Encryption is applied at the disk level using LUKS (Linux Unified Key Setup), ensuring robust and seamless data protection across both control plane and worker machines.


Step 1: Log in to the MyAccount Portal

Log in to the E2E Networks MyAccount Portal using your credentials.

Step 2: Create the Encrypted Kubernetes Cluster

  1. In the left-hand navigation panel, click Kubernetes, then click Create Kubernetes.

  2. Fill in the cluster details:

    • Enter a Cluster Name.
    • Select the Version.
    • Choose a Plan.
    • Select the VPC.
  3. To encrypt the cluster, select the Enable Encryption checkbox.

tip

Encryption can only be enabled during the creation of a new Kubernetes cluster. It cannot be enabled on an existing cluster after it has been launched.

  1. Click Add Node Pool to configure the worker node pool.

  2. Fill in the node pool details:

    • Enter a Worker Node Pool Name.
    • Select the Family and Plan.
    • Set the Worker Count.
  3. Click Add Pool to confirm the node pool configuration.

  4. Click Next to review the configuration.

  5. Click Launch Cluster to create the encrypted Kubernetes cluster.


note

The Encryption flag is not visible on non-encrypted Kubernetes clusters. It is only shown in the cluster details for clusters that were created with encryption enabled.
