Cluster aliasing is implemented for a cluster of a plurality of computer-based members. The aliased cluster supports secured communication with a non-member node. The cluster aliasing provides an appearance to the non-member node of a common network address for the plurality of members. In supporting the secured communication, a first of the plurality of members is assigned to process secure inbound data directed to the common network address from the non-member node, and a second, different of the plurality of members is assigned to send secure outbound data from the common network address to the non-member node.
