The rapid growth of cloud native activity has spurred adoption of platforms like Kubernetes. According to Dynatrace, Kubernetes saw an annual growth rate of 127% last year and 73% of Kubernetes clusters are hosted in AWS, Azure, or Google Cloud. Public clouds continue to dominate, but users and developers struggle to protect those environments.
oak9, developer-first cloud native security leader, has expanded its platform with pre-built Security as Code blueprints for Kubernetes. This ensures cloud native workloads hosted and deployed on Kubernetes clusters are secure and compliant by design. This new feature helps customers reduce false positives, IaC security review time, and cumbersome management of static policies, saving them hundreds of thousands of dollars on cloud security.

“Our customers are increasingly relying on Kubernetes to host and deploy their applications, and they’ve counted on us to deliver this support so they can mitigate security risks facing cloud native software development today,” said Om Vyas, CEO and Co-Founder at oak9. “Kubernetes is a powerful platform that requires equally powerful security controls. With our Security as Code blueprints for k8s, customers can rest assured their cloud native workloads are secure from architecture design, all the way through post-deployment”
oak9’s support for Kubernetes will help customers find, validate, and remediate security design gaps across their cloud infrastructure in real-time, when code is written, automatically.
In addition to expanding its Security as Code blueprints for Kubernetes, oak9 has also expanded its multi-IaC validation capabilities. oak9 can now simultaneously validate Terraform, Cloud Formation and Kubernetes stored in the same code repository, a first in the industry. This new capability gives developers freedom to use the tools and languages they want.
