Kubernetes security and cost
All Use Cases
Kubernetes Security & Cost

Run clusters with risk,
cost, and incidents
in one view.

Track CVEs, certificates, namespace spend, incidents, orphaned resources, and IaC linkage across EKS, GKE, AKS, OKE, and self-managed clusters.

Vulnerabilities

Container risk should live next to cluster operations.

ops0 uses Trivy Operator signals to show vulnerabilities from running Kubernetes workloads, so CVEs are not handled in a scanner tab disconnected from the cluster, namespace, workload, and remediation path.

Cost

Namespace spend should not disappear into the cluster bill.

OpenCost brings Kubernetes spend down to namespaces and workloads, making over-requested resources, expensive services, and cluster-level waste visible where operators already review runtime health.

Incidents

Runtime failures need cause and remediation, not just alerts.

CrashLoopBackOff, OOMKilled, scheduling failures, and rollout issues are analyzed with cluster context, recent deployment activity, and suggested remediation instead of leaving teams to assemble the story manually.

Certificates

Expired certificates should not be discovered by outage.

ops0 tracks certificate expiration from Kubernetes secrets and cluster resources, so teams can see risk before an expiring X.509 certificate becomes a production incident.

IaC Linkage

Runtime findings should lead back to governed code.

Findings connect back to the IaC project that owns the cluster or resource. Operators can move from a runtime issue to a reviewed infrastructure change instead of patching around governance.

Outcome

Security, cost, and operations stop splitting across tools.

The value is not another Kubernetes dashboard. It is one place where cluster risk, spend, incidents, and remediation stay connected to the same governed infrastructure workflow.

Cluster Operations

Runtime findings should not die in runtime tools.

ops0 keeps cluster issues connected to the governed infrastructure workflow that can actually fix them.
