About Kubescape
A Kubernetes open-source platform providing developers and DevOps an end-to-end security solution, including risk analysis, security compliance, RBAC visualizer, and image vulnerabilities scanning.
Kubescape scans K8s clusters, Kubernetes manifest files (YAML files, and HELM charts), code repositories, container registries and images, detecting misconfigurations according to multiple frameworks (such as the NSA-CISA, MITRE ATT&CK®), finding software vulnerabilities, and showing RBAC (role-based-access-control) violations at early stages of the CI/CD pipeline. It calculates risk scores instantly and shows risk trends over time.
Kubescape has became one of the fastest-growing Kubernetes security compliance tools among developers due to its easy-to-use CLI interface, flexible output formats, and automated scanning capabilities, saving Kubernetes users and admins precious time, effort, and resources.

Massdriver
At Massdriver, we believe in prevention, not permission, letting ops teams enforce guardrails while developers deploy confidently. Our platform encodes your non-negotiables into self-service modules built with your preferred IaC (Terraform, Helm, OpenTofu, etc.) standardizing infrastructure across AWS, Azure, GCP, and Kubernetes out-of-the-box.
By bundling policy, security, and cost controls into functional IaC assets, Massdriver cuts overhead for ops teams and speeds developer workflows. Through a central service catalog, developers can provision what they need with integrated monitoring, secrets management, and RBAC baked in. No more brittle IaC pipelines; ephemeral CI/CD spins up automatically from each module’s tooling.
Scale faster with unlimited cloud accounts and projects, all while reducing risk and ensuring compliance. Massdriver—fast by default, safe by design.

Wiz
Wiz is a new approach to cloud security that finds the most critical risks and infiltration vectors with complete coverage across the full stack of multi-cloud environments. Find all lateral movement risks such as private keys used to access both development and production environments. Scan for vulnerable and unpatched operating systems, installed software, and code libraries in your workloads prioritized by risk. Get a complete and up-to-date inventory of all services and software in your cloud environments including the version and package. Identify all keys located on your workloads cross referenced with the privileges they have in your cloud environment. See which resources are publicly exposed to the internet based on a full analysis of your cloud network, even those behind multiple hops. Assess the configuration of cloud infrastructure, Kubernetes, and VM operating systems against your baselines and industry best practices.

Portainer is an intuitive container management platform for Docker, Kubernetes, and Edge-based environments. With a smart UI, Portainer enables you to build, deploy, manage, and secure your containerized environments with ease. It makes container adoption easier for the whole team and reduces time-to-value on Kubernetes and Docker/Swarm.
With a simple GUI and a comprehensive API, the product makes it easy for engineers to deploy and manage container-based apps, triage issues, automate CI/CD workflows and set up CaaS (container-as-a-service) environments regardless of hosting environment or K8s distro.
Portainer Business is designed to be used in a team environment with multiple users and clusters. The product includes a range of security features, including RBAC, OAuth integration, and logging - making it suitable for use in complex production environments.
Portainer also allows you to set up GitOps automation for deployment of your apps to Docker and K8s based on Git repos.

Fairwinds Insights
Protect and optimize your mission-critical Kubernetes applications. Fairwinds Insights is a Kubernetes configuration validation platform that proactively monitors your Kubernetes and container configurations and recommends improvements. The software combines trusted open source tools, toolchain integrations, and SRE expertise based on hundreds of successful Kubernetes deployments. Balancing the velocity of engineering with the reactionary pace of security can result in messy Kubernetes configurations and unnecessary risk. Trial-and-error efforts to adjust CPU and memory settings eats into engineering time and can result in over-provisioning data center capacity or cloud compute. Traditional monitoring tools are critical, but don’t provide everything needed to proactively identify changes to maintain reliable Kubernetes workloads.
