Projects sharing features with Rakkess

Gatekeeper is a Kubernetes admission control and policy enforcement engine used to ensure cluster resources comply with organizational security and configuration standards. It intercepts API requests to validate or reject non-compliant resources before they are persisted in the cluster. The project uses a parameterized policy library and custom resource definitions to create reusable templates and enforcement rules. It distinguishes itself through a hub-and-spoke management model, allowing a controller in a management cluster to enforce policies across separate target clusters. Beyond admiss

Falco is an eBPF runtime security monitor and cloud native detection engine that identifies abnormal behavior and security threats across hosts and containers. It functions as a Linux kernel event auditor, capturing system calls and kernel events in real-time to detect malicious activity. The system distinguishes itself through a rule-based threat detection model that evaluates system activity against a library of community-maintained rules and custom security definitions. It enriches raw kernel events with container and Kubernetes metadata to provide observability into isolated environments

External Secrets Operator reads information from a third-party service like AWS Secrets Manager and automatically injects the values as Kubernetes Secrets.

Help building an adaptive and fine-grained pod security policy

KubeLinter is a static analysis tool that checks Kubernetes YAML files and Helm charts to ensure the applications represented in them adhere to best practices.

Kubescape is a security platform for Kubernetes that provides tools for scanning clusters, configurations, and container images against industry compliance and security benchmarks. It functions as a suite of security utilities, including a compliance auditor, a misconfiguration scanner, and a container vulnerability scanner. The project differentiates itself through automated remediation and active enforcement. It can automatically patch operating system vulnerabilities in images and fix security errors within manifest files. It also utilizes an admission controller to block the deployment of

Security risk analysis for Kubernetes resources

kube-bench is a Kubernetes security benchmark scanner and configuration auditor. It verifies if a cluster adheres to the Center for Internet Security standards and other hardening guides to identify security misconfigurations and vulnerabilities. The tool operates as a containerized security scanner, utilizing host namespaces to analyze nodes and control plane components without requiring the installation of binaries directly on the host. It supports multiple Kubernetes distributions, applying environment-specific benchmarks to ensure auditing accuracy for managed services. The project cover

A simple "RBAC in Kubernetes" visualizer. No matter how complex the setup, rback queries all RBAC related information of an Kubernetes cluster in constant time and generates a graph representation of service accounts, (cluster) roles, and the respective access rules in dot format.

A tool to scan Kubernetes cluster for risky permissions

Kubeapps is a web-based application management interface for discovering, deploying, and supervising the operational lifecycle of software across one or more Kubernetes clusters. It provides a visual dashboard for orchestrating the installation and management of applications and operators, replacing manual command line operations. The project distinguishes itself through multicluster coordination, allowing users to manage applications across several distinct cluster environments from a single interface. It utilizes a software discovery system that catalogs packages from OCI-compliant containe

Headlamp is a Kubernetes web interface that runs as either a desktop application or a browser-based dashboard, providing a unified view for managing resources across multiple clusters. It supports authentication through OpenID Connect providers and kubeconfig files, and renders the UI according to the user's Kubernetes RBAC permissions, hiding or disabling actions that are not permitted. The project distinguishes itself through a plugin system that allows extending the dashboard with custom views, components, and business logic without modifying the core code. Plugins can be installed from a

Feast is an open-source feature store for machine learning that provides a central platform for defining, storing, and serving features across both training and inference workflows. It operates as a declarative system where feature definitions are written as code in Python files, synchronized to a central registry, and made available for low-latency online retrieval or point-in-time correct historical joins for training datasets. The project abstracts storage behind a pluggable architecture, allowing offline and online backends to be swapped without changing retrieval logic, and coordinates ma

Devtron is a Kubernetes management platform and CI/CD orchestrator designed to unify application lifecycles and infrastructure operations across multiple clusters from a single interface. It serves as a centralized dashboard for orchestrating workloads, managing security, and providing observability for Kubernetes environments. The platform distinguishes itself with a no-code workflow engine for automating container builds and software delivery pipelines, alongside a visual GitOps deployment tool for managing declarative applications and reconciling configuration drift. Its capability surfac

Flux is a Kubernetes GitOps delivery tool used to automate application deployments by synchronizing cluster state with configurations stored in Git, OCI, or Helm repositories. It functions as a set of controllers that monitor desired state in external sources and continuously reconcile the live cluster to match those definitions. The system distinguishes itself through a multi-cluster management plane that coordinates application delivery across fleets of remote clusters from a central hub. It provides a dedicated mechanism for automated image updates, which scans container registries for new

Cloud-native authorization for modern applications and APIs

Coraza is a web application firewall engine designed to filter malicious HTTP traffic using standardized security directives. It functions as a library for embedding request filtering and security transaction processing directly into web servers or reverse proxies. The engine implements the ModSecurity WAF engine and the OWASP Core Rule Set to identify and block common web attack patterns. It utilizes a library-first integration model, allowing security capabilities to be embedded into a host process as a dependency rather than running as a standalone proxy. The project covers rule-based pat

Cilium is a networking, security, and observability platform for containerized environments that leverages kernel-level data paths to process traffic. By executing programs directly within the Linux kernel, it provides high-performance packet filtering, routing, and load balancing without the need for traditional user-space proxies or context switching. The platform distinguishes itself through identity-based security enforcement, which filters traffic based on service labels rather than volatile IP addresses. It integrates containerized workloads with external physical or virtual infrastruct
