Triggered by alert
Fires when a CVE is published in a feed you subscribe to, or on demand from a chat command.
Recurring operations work
When a CVE drops, Hyground returns the full impact map: which images, which clusters, which deployment owners, and the upgrade path per service. Read-only kubectl and GitHub. No external image scanner installed in your perimeter.
The artefact
When a new CVE is published against a base image, library or runtime in your fleet, the question is always the same: where are we running it, who owns each instance, and how do we upgrade. Hyground encodes that triage as a deterministic workflow that runs on alert and returns the same answer every time.
Fires when a CVE is published in a feed you subscribe to, or on demand from a chat command.
Every workload across every cluster running a matching image tag or affected library version.
Each finding tagged with the responsible team via labels or your service catalogue.
What the agent reads
No vulnerability scanner. No SBOM agent. The blast radius is computed from kubectl, your Git repositories and the CVE feed itself.
Live image inventory across every cluster and namespace, with their pinned tags and digests.
Dockerfiles and Helm values, used to follow image-build chains and identify transitive exposure.
NVD, GitHub Advisories or your internal vulnerability database, depending on what your security team already uses.
What you get back
Designed to land in your ticket of record, not a chat thread. One artefact, with the evidence pinned next to every claim.
Every deployment, statefulset or job running a vulnerable image tag, with cluster, namespace and image digest.
Each finding tagged with the responsible team via Kubernetes labels or your service catalogue.
The fixed version, the upstream advisory link and the change required in your Helm chart or manifest.
Lowest-risk environments first, the production stagger, and any service that needs coordinated downtime.
Hyground is not SaaS. Hyground works as a bring-your-own-chart and bring-your-own-model, without sending any data back to us. This way, Hyground complies with highest security and data compliance standards in the AI SRE space. It speeds up incident resolution with automatic RCA and your daily work, both. Trusted by industry giants.
Read deeper
Hyground is built on six architectural pillars: fully self-hosted, zero external access, credential control, flexible integration, bring your own models, and standard tooling. The compliance whitepaper unpacks each one and shows why every Hyground action is read-only by default, typed, scoped and audit-grade.
