# Kubescape
_Comprehensive Kubernetes Security from Development to Runtime_
Kubescape is an open-source Kubernetes security platform that provides comprehensive security coverage from left to right across the entire development and deployment lifecycle. It offers hardening, posture management, and runtime security capabilities to ensure robust protection for Kubernetes environments.
**Key features of Kubescape include**
* **Shift-left security**: Kubescape enables developers to scan for misconfigurations as early as the manifest file submission stage, promoting a proactive approach to security.
* **IDE and CI/CD integration**: The tool integrates seamlessly with popular IDEs like VSCode and Lens, as well as CI/CD platforms such as GitHub and GitLab, allowing for security checks throughout the development process.
* **Cluster scanning**: Kubescape can scan active Kubernetes clusters for vulnerabilities, misconfigurations, and security issues
* **Multiple framework support**: Kubescape can test against various security frameworks, including NSA, MITRE, SOC2, and more.
* **YAML and Helm chart validation**: The tool checks YAML files and Helm charts for correct configuration according to the frameworks above, without requiring an active cluster.
* **Kubernetes hardening**: Kubescape ensures proactive identification and rapid remediation of misconfigurations and vulnerabilities through manual, recurring, or event-triggered scans.
* **Runtime security**: Kubescape extends its protection to the runtime environment, providing continuous monitoring and threat detection for deployed applications.
* **Compliance management**: The tool aids in maintaining compliance with recognized frameworks and standards, simplifying the process of meeting regulatory requirements.
* **Multi-cloud support**: Kubescape offers frictionless security across various cloud providers and Kubernetes distributions.
By providing this comprehensive security coverage from development to production, Kubescape enables organizations to implement a robust security posture throughout their Kubernetes deployment, addressing potential vulnerabilities and threats at every stage of the application lifecycle.
Kubescape was created by [ARMO](https://www.armosec.io/?utm_source=github&utm_medium=repository) and is a [Cloud Native Computing Foundation (CNCF) sandbox project](https://www.cncf.io/sandbox-projects/).
## Demo
_Please [star ⭐](https://github.com/kubescape/kubescape/stargazers) the repo if you want us to continue developing and improving Kubescape! 😀_
## Getting started
Experimenting with Kubescape is as easy as:
```sh
curl -s https://raw.githubusercontent.com/kubescape/kubescape/master/install.sh | /bin/bash
```
Learn more about:
* [Installing Kubescape](docs/installation.md)
* [Running your first scan](docs/getting-started.md#run-your-first-scan)
* [Usage](docs/getting-started.md#examples)
* [Architecture](docs/architecture.md)
* [Building Kubescape from source](https://github.com/kubescape/kubescape/wiki/Building)
_Did you know you can use Kubescape in all these places?_
## Kubescape-operator Helm-Chart
Besides the CLI, the Kubescape operator can also be installed via a Helm chart. Installing the Helm chart is an excellent way to begin using Kubescape, as it provides extensive features such as continuous scanning, image vulnerability scanning, runtime analysis, network policy generation, and more. You can find the Helm chart in the [Kubescape-operator documentation](https://kubescape.io/docs/install-operator/).
## Kubescape GitHub Action
Kubescape can be used as a GitHub Action. This is a great way to integrate Kubescape into your CI/CD pipeline. You can find the Kubescape GitHub Action in the [GitHub Action marketplace](https://github.com/marketplace/actions/kubescape).
## Under the hood
Kubescape uses [Open Policy Agent](https://github.com/open-policy-agent/opa) to verify Kubernetes objects against [a library of posture controls](https://github.com/kubescape/regolibrary).
For image scanning, it uses [Grype](https://github.com/anchore/grype).
For image patching, it uses [Copacetic](https://github.com/project-copacetic/copacetic).
By default, the results are printed in a console-friendly manner, but they can be:
* exported to JSON, junit XML or SARIF
* rendered to HTML or PDF
* submitted to a [cloud service](docs/providers.md)
It retrieves Kubernetes objects from the API server and runs a set of [Rego snippets](https://www.openpolicyagent.org/docs/latest/policy-language/) developed by [ARMO](https://www.armosec.io?utm_source=github&utm_medium=repository).
## Architecture
**Otel collector** - is not built-in, Otel endpoint spec is need to be added at setup [Setting Otel](https://kubescape.io/docs/operator/telemetry/)
## Community
Kubescape is an open source project, we welcome your feedback and ideas for improvement. We are part of the cloud-native community and are enhancing the project as the ecosystem develops.
We hold [community meetings](https://zoom.us/j/95174063585) on Zoom, every other week, at 15:00 CET. ([See that in your local time zone](https://time.is/compare/1500_in_CET).
The Kubescape project follows the [CNCF Code of Conduct](https://github.com/cncf/foundation/blob/master/code-of-conduct.md).
