From The Creators of Kyverno

What it is

AI platform engineering assistant for Kyverno that writes, runs, and validates policy-as-code across your entire infrastructure.

What it replaces

Manual YAML, scattered scripts, dashboard hopping, endless reporting requests, and slow ticket loops.

Outcomes You Feel

Cut MTTR up to 80%

with find‑to‑fix automation.

Reduce Security Risk

through shift-left controls and proactive guardrails.

Lower Infrastructure Costs

with quota enforcement and cleanup policies.

Be Audit-Ready

by proactively aligning to standard compliance frameworks.

Find. Fix. Govern. With AI

Find

Natural-language policy authoring (YAML & CEL generated & explainable)
Unified view of pipeline, cluster, and cloud misconfigs
Impact-based triage (blast radius, critical paths)

Fix

AI-generated remediation PRs & pipeline actions
Violation workflow tools and integrated exception management
Automatic verification of fixes

Govern

Enforce standards globally across clusters, namespaces, and repos
Evidence collection for compliance audits (CIS, PCI, HIPAA, SOC 2)
Drift control with continuous verification

How it works

Connect

Clusters, repos, and cloud accounts (GitHub / GitLab / Bitbucket, Argo / Flux, major K8s dists).

Describe

The policy in natural language; Nirmata generates Kyverno policies, tests it, and explains it.

Detect

Violations by impact; group by service/team.

Remediate

Violations (PRs, pipeline jobs, or runtime actions) with rollback safety with auto-generated fixes.

Govern

With dashboards, reports, and evidence mapped to frameworks.

Built for Enterprise

Kyverno-Native

Orchestrates policy packs, versions, and exceptions on the native Kyverno engine and CRDs; no engine or language required.

GitOps-Friendly

Creates signed pull requests with approver steps, safe rollbacks, and a complete change history.

Multi-Environment

Consistent control across Amazon EKS, Azure AKS, Google GKE, Rancher, and OpenShift, plus on-premises; lightweight agents support air-gapped sites.

Enterprise Controls

Single sign-on (SAML or OIDC), granular roles and tenant separation, tamper-proof audit logs, evidence exports, and data residency options.

Use Cases

Security Standardization

Policies and guardrails to maintain container security and integrity in clusters across infrastructure

Pipeline Governance

Move policies into CI and delivery pipelines for early visibility and guided remediation

Policy Enforcement

Prevent security issues with enforceable policies for security, access, and operations

Resource Optimization

Eliminate wasted spend through intelligent resource allocation and right-sizing recommendations, driving significant cost efficiencies

Continuous Compliance

Automated verification against standards and common regulatory frameworks.

Powered by AI Agents

Policies Made Simple

State what you want in natural language, and Nirmata translates it into Kyverno policies. Platform teams gain direct control of infrastructure, without barriers or bottlenecks.

AI Remediation

Backlogs to Near Zero

AI remediation agents detect misconfigurations and automatically generate fixes for review. Instead of manually chasing thousands of open violations, teams cut backlogs to near zero and stop incidents before they hit production.

Governance Copilot

Expertise On Demand

Your AI governance copilot acts like a wingman in the console—analyzing infrastructure, surfacing risks, prioritizing violations, recommending solutions, and generating reports—giving teams complete command over their environment.

Frequently asked questions

Does this replace Kyverno?

No, Nirmata is the enterprise control plane that enhances Kyverno, the open-source Kubernetes Policy Engine. Nirmata Control Hub and Enterprise for Kyverno centralize the management of your Kyverno policies across multiple Kubernetes clusters. While Kyverno OSS handles local policy enforcement, Nirmata provides the necessary features for enterprise scale, including central reporting, multi-cluster governance, and professional support (SLA).

How is this different from CSPM?

Nirmata provides active, Kubernetes-native Policy-as-Code (PaC) enforcement, which is distinct from traditional CSPM (Cloud Security Posture Management). CSPM monitors the security of your underlying cloud infrastructure (like AWS or Azure accounts). Nirmata, built on Kyverno, focuses on securing the workload configuration inside your clusters, using admission control to proactively block or mutate non-compliant Kubernetes resources (Pods, Deployments). This gives you granular, real-time security control for your Kubernetes security posture.

Will this break my apps?

No, a properly configured Nirmata deployment will not break your apps; it prevents bad configurations from running. Kyverno policies support a Dry Run Mode (Audit Mode) to test rules and report violations without blocking resources. When fully deployed, policies either validate (block non-compliant resources) or mutate (automatically fix the resource) to ensure Kubernetes compliance. This approach ensures application security without introducing unnecessary deployment friction.

Can I upgrade from Kyverno OSS to Nirmata Control Hub or Enterprise for Kyverno later?

Yes, the upgrade path from Kyverno OSS is seamless and fully supported. As the creator and primary maintainer of the Kyverno project, Nirmata ensures 100% policy compatibility. Your existing policies, written in Kubernetes YAML, are directly transferable. Upgrading to Nirmata Enterprise or Control Hub is the logical next step for organizations that need to transition from single-cluster policy management to centralized, scalable multi-cluster policy governance.
