The Security Paradox

In the modern cloud-native landscape, the friction between deployment velocity and security rigor has reached a breaking point. While microservices and Kubernetes have revolutionized software delivery, securing the workloads and the traffic between these workloads remains an operational quagmire. Traditional solutions—such as complex Service Meshes and fragile PKI infrastructures—force organizations to choose between speed and safety. Complexity increases as new technologies and sophisticated workflows appear and these increase the friction and burden DevOps and Platform Engineers. Deployment of applications networks (within and across clusters) requires highly skilled personnel to manage a vast automated PKI empire and troublesome mTLS implementations whose fragility is not inconsequential.

The Solution

Lane7 Blueprints fundamentally change this equation by delivering pre-configured, "secure-by-default" Kubernetes deployment packages. Instead of asking engineers to stitch together proxies and policy engines, Lane7 provides the "finished house" rather than the raw lumber. Lane7 Blueprints allow DevSecOps and Platform teams to implement rigorous Zero Trust application networks in minutes, not months. And the networks are defended by a Cloud Native Automated Moving Target Defense.

Under the Hood

Powered by Hopr's proprietary Korevette-S Workload Security Proxy (WoSP), Lane7 Blueprints render stolen credentials useless by rotating cryptographic credentials at a high frequency and securing traffic without a vulnerable key exchange. The resulting Automated Moving Target Defense (AMTD) proactively confuses and disrupts adversaries, making the "attack surface" appear to move, vanish, and reappear constantly.

Korvette-S WoSPs are built in the USA with patented technologies and military-grade encryption. US Export Administration Regulations (EAR) do not allow export of this technology to certain persons or countries. 

The DevOps-Platform Engineer Workflow 

Simplicity and velocity is the new experience for DevOps and Platform Engineers. Lane7 Blueprints are pre-configure application networks delivered as a .zip bundle with all the code and instructions for average skilled DevOps to be deploying apps in <3 minutes. 

A Blueprint includes Docs, Apps, and Korvette-S WoSPs. The DevOps or Platform Engineer receives the zip bundle and follows four steps: Build, Import, Verify, and Deploy.. Deployment, the final step is one line of code in the terminal.

Available Topologies

Lane7 is a catalog of different blueprints that have been pre-configured for different authorization patterns, messaging patterns, sizes, protocols, languages, and operating environments. DevOps and Platform teams need only to pick the blueprint that matches their application needs.The most basic blueprints enable single cluster deployments and include:  

• Bi-Pod (Serial Relay): Python HTTP/REST app for simple A-to-B-to-A request loops and secure data transfer.  
• Tri-Pod (Fan-Out): Python HTTP/REST app ideal for event distribution.  
• Tri-Pod (Fan-In): Python HTTP/REST app ideal for data aggregation.  
• Quad-Pod (Fan-Out/Fan-In): Python HTTP/REST app supporting complex flows and end-to-end processing.  

These are the basic building blocks on which a Zero Trust application network can scale. Multi-cloud blueprints are on the development roadmap along with other planned protocols, such as WebSockets, HL7, OPC UA

Customizing the App Business Logic

One of the great features of all Lane7 Blueprints is the separation of the Korvette-S networking and security code from the app business logic. By isolating the business logic, a customer can remove what was delivered in the Blueprint and replace it with their own business logic, effectively ‘re-purposing’ the app without disturbing the network and security architecture.

Authorization and Zero Trust

Another important feature of all Lane7 Blueprints is that authorization of which apps can connect and share data is built into the topology by design. This, along with the frequent identity trust verification of workloads each time they connect, ensure Zero Trust for Workloads is achieved at cloud scales and speeds without dependencies on traditional control planes and identity services.

 Why Wait? Act Now!

By eliminating the need for complex certificate management suites, external key vaults, and dedicated "Service Mesh Engineers," Lane7 Blueprints significantly reduce both infrastructure licensing costs and human capital overhead.

The complexity of modern security tools has become the greatest enemy of secure software delivery. Lane7 Blueprints reverse this trend. By packaging military-grade AMTD security into accessible, developer-friendly blueprints, we empower teams to stop configuring certificates and start shipping code. If you meet our EAR regulatory requirements, we’re glad to build and ship a blueprint bundle to you for a 45-day free trial (dev environments only).
