Overview

Built For Hardening Review

Configuration drift is the silent enemy — container platforms ship secure, then accumulate exceptions over months until the defaults are barely recognizable.

Our review compares your live configuration against CIS Docker / K8s benchmarks and your own policy, then ships per-rule pass/fail evidence and prioritised hardening guidance.

Drift Over Time

Exceptions accumulate; no one re-checks them.

Audit Mandate

ISO/PCI/RBI all expect periodic config review.

Reduce Attack Surface

Less open ports, default creds, debug surfaces.

Operational Hygiene

Standardised configs cut MTTR and on-call pages.
