01 · Monitor posture continuously
Kubernetes Security Posture Management continuously reviews cluster configuration against the CIS Kubernetes Benchmark and NSA hardening guidance and controls.
Cloud & Application
Managed Kubernetes & Runtime Security
Continuous posture management, vulnerability scanning, and runtime threat detection across Kubernetes clusters and cloud-native workloads.
- 12-month Minimum engagement, continuous posture and runtime protection across every cluster
- AI-assisted Threat detection uses automated behavioral analysis to catch container threats
- Monthly Operational review with remediation recommendations
The challenge
Ninety percent of organizations have experienced a Kubernetes security incident in the past year, and a new, unsecured cluster can face its first attack attempt within eighteen minutes of deployment. Nearly half of those incidents come down to misconfiguration, not a novel exploit.
Approach
How the engagement works
02 · Scan and detect at runtime
Container images are scanned for vulnerabilities, while runtime threat detection watches for malware, suspicious processes, privileged container abuse, and unexpected runtime behavior patterns.
03 · Review and remediate
You receive a monthly operational review with remediation recommendations for every finding, including prioritized actions, ownership, timelines, risk ratings, validation guidance, executive summaries, progress tracking, and status updates.
How it works
From cluster sprawl to one governed runtime
What’s included
- Continuous Kubernetes Security Posture Management
- Continuous container image vulnerability scanning
- Runtime threat detection for workloads and containers
- RBAC and least-privilege policy assessment
- Admission controller and workload policy validation
- Monthly operational review with remediation recommendations
Outcomes
- Cluster misconfigurations found before they become an attack path
- Runtime threats detected as they happen, not discovered after the fact
- RBAC and privileged container risk visible across every cluster
Why Gruve
Most Kubernetes security stops at the configuration check
Gruve watches what happens at runtime too
A clean configuration scan does not mean a cluster is safe once it is running. This service pairs continuous posture management with runtime threat detection, so privileged containers, exposed secrets, and suspicious processes are caught while they are happening, not just flagged as a configuration risk after the fact.
Gruve Differentiator
Gruve Managed Kubernetes & Runtime Security
Configuration Scanning Alone
Business Requirements
Configuration Scanning Alone
Organizations running periodic configuration scans only
Service Model
Posture management and runtime detection operated end-to-end
Internal team runs scans and reviews results manually
Technology & Expertise
Runtime threats detected as they happen
Risks visible only at the next scheduled scan
Approach & Capabilities
RBAC, admission control and workload policy all assessed
Configuration checks only, runtime behavior unaddressed
Governance & Assurance
Privileged container and exposed secret detection included
Manual review required to catch privilege or secret exposure
