Kubernetes Security

Cluster security posture, tied to its code.

ops0 scans running workloads for container vulnerabilities, tracks certificate expiry, checks config against policy, and links every finding back to the IaC project that owns it, across EKS, GKE, AKS, OKE, and self-managed clusters.

ops0 is preventive cloud security. Kubernetes security posture covers container vulnerability scanning across running workloads, certificate expiry tracking, policy checks on configuration, and incident correlation to deploy history, then links every finding back to the IaC project that owns it, before it becomes an outage.

Over-requested resources and orphans surfaced for cleanup.
Remediation runs the reviewed path, not a manual patch.
Under the hood

Security posture, tied to the code that owns it.

Container vulnerability scanning

Every running workload is scanned across clusters, with severity ranked by exposure.

Certificate expiry tracking

Certificates are tracked before expiry turns into an outage.

Policy-check failures

Config is checked against policy, and failing rules surface before they ship.

Incident correlation to deploy and IaC

Runtime failures link back to the deploy history and the IaC project that owns them.

Per-namespace cost for cleanup

Spend is broken down by namespace and workload, so cleanup targets the right owner.

Orphaned-resource detection

Over-requested resources and orphans are surfaced for removal, not left to accumulate.

Common questions

ops0 connects vulnerability findings, policy checks, cluster incidents, and resource context so teams can triage Kubernetes risk in one workflow.

Runtime findings should not
die in runtime tools.

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