View Clusters and Details

The Kubernetes Clusters section of InsightCloudSec provides visibility into all of the Kubernetes Clusters connected to InsightCloudSec. From this page, you can monitor the visibility and size of your clusters and force a scan for a cluster.

After connecting your clouds and clusters, go to Cloud > Kubernetes Clusters to view the details of the successfully harvested clusters. The following are some important features to note on this page:

  • Cluster Name - The name of the cluster. For remote clusters, clicking the name opens the Related Resources graph. From this graph, you can view details about the cluster as well as all resources associated with the cluster. You can also access this graph from supported Kubernetes resources on the Resources page. Explore Related Resources for more information.

  • Status - Status is for the Kubernetes scanner used on the cluster. The available status for clusters are:

    • OK - Successfully harvested and enabled for scanning
    • Paused - Successfully harvested, not enabled for scanning
    • Unauthorized - Issues with harvesting or scanning, generally the result of access issues (permissions, token authorization, and others)
    • Failed - Issues with harvesting or scanning, generally the result of connectivity issues

  • Visibility - Visibility is provided by the permissions supplied to the Kubernetes scanner for the cluster. If there is less than full visibility, you can click the column value to display any errors.

  • Cloud Account - The cloud account associated with the cluster. If the cluster is locally-managed, an N/A appears instead.

  • Actions - Select the checkbox next to the individual cluster to activate options to resume, pause, or delete for each account selected (Resume and Force Scan are also available in the Actions menu). Deleting a cluster in the interface will only superficially remove the cluster from InsightCloudSec.

    Deleting a cluster?

    If you delete a cluster outside of InsightCloudSec, it will detect the deletion in the next harvesting cycle or event if event-driven harvesting is used. The following events will occur:

    • The cluster will be marked as deleted.
    • The Kubernetes entities related to this cluster will be marked as deleted.
    • The account associated with the cluster will not be deleted from the interface and the harvesting state will be set to Paused.

  • Resources - Click the count to open the Resources page automatically scoped to the associated cluster.

Filter

The Kubernetes Clusters page has filtering functionality to effectively narrow the scope of and navigate the data.

Add Filter

Filtering allows for narrowing the scope of the resources list using properties like cloud accounts, clusters, resource groups, etc. Some things to note about filtering behavior:

  • Each selected filter updates dynamically with options appropriate for the property selected.
  • After selecting an initial property, click + Add Filter to add an additional filter and further narrow the scope.
  • If filtering on a Resource Tag:
    • Searching for a tag is case insensitive.
    • New tags are harvested every 12 hours by the ResourceTypeTrigramsProcess background job (see System Settings for more information).

To add a filter:

  1. Click the Add Filters button to open the side panel.
  2. Select and configure a property to get started.
  3. After configuring your desired filters, click Apply to update the scope for the feature.
Save Filters (Optional)

After Adding a Filter, you can save it so that it can easily be reused the next time you access the feature. Saved filters are feature-specific (since options vary between features), i.e., a saved filter in Feature "A" will only be available in Feature "A" and will not be available in Feature "B".

To save a filter:

  1. Once filter(s) have been applied, ensure the filters list is expanded by clicking the arrow (>)
  2. Click the ellipsis (...) button, then click Save Filter.
  3. Provide a name for the filter and an optional description.
  4. Select the checkbox for Set as Default Filter to set this filter as the default for the feature. This only applies to your user account and will not affect other users' default filter.
  5. Select the checkbox for Make this a Public Filter to allow other users to use and see the filter.
  6. Click OK.

Once a filter has been successfully saved, it can be accessed (along with other saved filters) or edited from the same ellipsis menu.
