A platform category that continuously assesses Kubernetes clusters for misconfigurations, compliance violations, and security risks. KSPM scans cluster configurations, RBAC settings, network policies, pod security standards, and admission controllers against benchmarks like CIS Kubernetes Benchmark. It identifies risks such as containers running as root, missing resource limits, and overly permissive network policies.
Kubernetes misconfiguration is a top cloud security concern. Security engineers use KSPM to maintain security baselines across clusters. Cloud security specialists define and enforce Kubernetes security policies. Understanding Kubernetes-specific security controls is increasingly required for cloud security roles as container orchestration becomes the default deployment model.
