What is KSOC?

Kubernetes Security, Simplified.

The KSOC unified security control plane gives security teams the ability to discover and remediate Kubernetes misconfigurations and vulnerabilities across any cloud without the use of intrusive agents by leveraging existing cloud and Kubernetes APIs.

Kubernetes Infrastructure Inventory

KSOC automatically discovers and tracks all Kubernetes assets in your environments on any cloud provider. This includes clusters, container registries, and cloud logs. You can’t protect what you are not aware of.

Kubernetes Detection and Response

Kubernetes' complexity and abstraction leave blind spots from a security perspective. KSOC uses an event-driven architecture to find security issues in real time. We take it a step further through automatic remediation via code or distributed policy enforcement aligning with security frameworks.

Kubernetes Entitlement Management

Kubernetes user and service account entitlements are often overly permissive and one of the leading causes for cluster compromise. KSOC monitors in-cluster Role-Based Access Control activities, alerts you about changes, and remediates over-privileged access automatically.

Why KSOC?

Not your average security platform.

KSOC enables security teams to deploy with confidence. We strongly believe that our unique approach to container security solves a real problem that will only get bigger as enterprises continue to expand their cloud native architectures.

Easy Install

Our simple, no-nonsense install process can get you up and running with KSOC in minutes, letting you get back to what’s important.

Fast Remediation

KSOC makes it easy to spot and fix common misconfigurations and vulnerabilities, as well as some not-so-common ones.

Intelligent Policies

KSOC can automatically create enforcement policies that are tailored for your existing environments and tool chains.

Smart Access Control

KSOC guides teams to enforce least-privileged access control to Kubernetes resources, granting access to only those that need it.

UX-First

Every workflow is carefully crafted to help and optimize the modern security operator. We pride ourselves on making tools that are intuitive and delightful to use, delivering actionable insights with real security outcomes.
