Frequently Asked Questions

Everything you need to know about TigerGate KSPM

KSPM is the continuous process of assessing and improving the security configuration of your Kubernetes clusters. TigerGate KSPM runs 83+ automated checks — mapped to the CIS Kubernetes Benchmark v1.8.0 — across the control plane, worker nodes, RBAC policies, pod security, network policies, and secrets management. It gives you a real-time view of your security posture and flags misconfigurations before they become breaches.
Posture scanning (configuration checks, RBAC analysis, CIS benchmarks) is completely agentless — TigerGate connects to your Kubernetes API server with read-only credentials and scans within minutes. The lightweight eBPF runtime agent is optional and only needed if you want real-time behavioral monitoring and enforcement inside running pods. It adds less than 3% CPU overhead and requires no kernel modules.
TigerGate KSPM works with all major distributions: Amazon EKS, Google GKE, Azure AKS, Red Hat OpenShift, Rancher, K3s, MicroK8s, VMware Tanzu, DigitalOcean Kubernetes, and self-managed clusters. The runtime agent runs on Linux 4.15+ for monitoring and 5.7+ for active LSM enforcement.
TigerGate analyzes every Role, ClusterRole, RoleBinding, and ClusterRoleBinding in your cluster to detect wildcard permissions, cluster-admin over-assignment, unused service accounts, and automatic token mounting. Each finding is prioritized by exploitability so your team can address the highest-risk RBAC issues first.
KSPM findings are mapped to CIS Kubernetes Benchmark v1.8.0, PCI-DSS, HIPAA, and SOC 2 requirements. TigerGate is part of the broader TigerGate platform, which covers 38+ frameworks in total. Audit-ready reports can be generated on demand or on a schedule for your compliance team.
