Azure Kubernetes Service (AKS) now supports Encryption in Transit
(EiT) for Azure Files NFS v4.1 volumes via the Azure File CSI driver.
This builds on the recent General Availability (GA) of EiT for Azure
Files NFS shares in June, which introduced TLS 1.3-based encryption to secure
data in transit across supported regions.
Now, AKS customers can benefit from the same enterprise-grade security
for their containerized workloads.
What’s New in AKS
- Preview support for EiT in AKS 1.33+ clusters using the
Azure File CSI driver.
- Built-in integration with the AZNFS mount helper and Stunnel for
seamless TLS encryption.
- No application changes required—after enabling in storage class, EiT works
transparently with your existing NFS workloads.
