About

Kubescape is an open-source Kubernetes security platform that provides configuration scanning, vulnerability assessment, policy enforcement, network policy validation, and runtime threat detection for Kubernetes environments. It supports multiple compliance frameworks including CIS Benchmarks, NSA-CISA, and MITRE ATT&CK, and integrates with popular IDEs and CI/CD pipelines. Created by ARMO, it is a CNCF incubating project built on tools like Open Policy Agent, Grype, and eBPF.

Problem

Kubernetes environments are difficult to secure across the full development and deployment lifecycle, from configuration to runtime.

For

Kubernetes engineers and platform operators

How it works

Kubescape retrieves Kubernetes objects from the API server, runs Rego-based posture controls via Open Policy Agent, and performs image scanning and runtime monitoring using integrated open-source tools.
