Risk Ledger

Operational Risk Feed for Your Infrastructure. Covers 100s of Open Source Software Projects.

Proactively surface hidden misconfigurations, version incompatibilities, end-of-life risks, and known defects—before they lead to breakages. Risk Signatures scan your infrastructure, identify issues that need attention, and prescribe mitigation and remediation workflows your team can trust.

Eliminate Operational Risks before They Cause Incidents

Risk Ledger continuously pinpoints Operational Risks—misconfigs, incompatibilities, EOL versions—so you can fix them long before impact
Every finding is backed by a source-grounded Risk Signature (RSig) with impact, trigger, and remediation details, eliminating guesswork
Shift from reactive firefighting to proactive hardening and keep incidents off the status page

Powered by Collective Learning & the Risk Signature Database (RSig DB)

Collective Learning ingests upstream change streams, routes them through task-specific AI agents, and produces verified facts in minutes
Curated facts are written to the RSig DB and the Knowledge Graph, creating the industry’s most complete map of Kubernetes, add-ons, and cloud compatibility
New RSigs stream to every tenant automatically, so your fleet benefits from lessons learned across the entire ecosystem

Continuous, Contextual RSig Scans across Your Fleet

A lightweight connector snapshots metadata and kicks off periodic scans
Scans are fully contextual—only RSigs that match your versions, CRDs, and cloud settings are flagged, slashing false positives
Results surface inside Risk Ledger, Slack, or your ticketing system so teams can act fast and track progress end-to-end

Actionable Guardrails & Remediation Workflows

RSig DB also codifies Guardrails—operational best practices from clouds, vendors, and OSS maintainers—to keep day-to-day changes safe
Open Jira tickets, assign owners, verify fixes, and close when risks are mitigated

Add-On & Multi-Hop Paths

Proven Outcomes for Platform, DevOps & SRE Teams

Offset 100s of potential breakages each year and reclaim thousands of break-fix hours for innovation
Standardise processes so upgrades and fixes can be delegated beyond a single SME, reducing toil and human error
Achieve better conformity, fewer incidents, and continuously harden operational safety across all environments
