What is ops0?

ops0 is a preventive cloud security platform for engineering teams managing live cloud infrastructure.


It helps DevOps, platform engineering, and cloud security teams find hidden risks before they become incidents, understand what those risks affect, and move safe fixes through policy, cost review, approval, pull request, and audit.


Unlike tools that only scan Infrastructure as Code or produce another list of alerts, ops0 starts with what is actually running in your cloud.


What ops0 does


Discover hidden cloud risk


Connect AWS, Google Cloud, Azure, Oracle Cloud, and Kubernetes environments using read-only access.


ops0 discovers live resources and maps how they are connected. It identifies:

  • Public exposure and risky configurations
  • Infrastructure drift
  • Resources created outside Terraform or OpenTofu
  • Unmanaged and orphaned resources
  • Identity and access risks
  • Policy and compliance gaps
  • Idle resources and unnecessary cloud spend


Findings are correlated to reduce duplicate alerts, and each cloud account receives an A-to-F risk grade that teams can track over time.


Understand impact and blast radius


A cloud finding rarely exists on its own.


ops0 shows which services, applications, data paths, and resources depend on the affected infrastructure. Teams can see what could break, what could become exposed, and how far the impact may spread before approving a change.


The Oxid infrastructure query console also lets teams explore dependencies and ask questions about their cloud environment without manually searching across

consoles and state files.


Move from finding to reviewed fix


ops0 does not stop after identifying a problem.

It helps teams turn a finding into a reviewed infrastructure change using Terraform, OpenTofu, or Oxid. Before the change moves forward, ops0 can:

  • Validate the proposed fix
  • Check security and company policies
  • Check compliance requirements
  • Show the expected cost impact
  • Route the change to the right approver
  • Create a pull request in GitHub or GitLab
  • Record the decision and supporting evidence


Nothing is applied without approval.


Prevent risky changes before deployment


ops0 checks proposed infrastructure changes before they reach the cloud.


Teams can validate Terraform and OpenTofu plans against security, compliance, cost, and budget rules. Unsafe changes can be flagged or blocked while the infrastructure is still easy to correct.


These checks can also be used with command-line and AI coding workflows so that changes created outside the ops0 interface still follow the same controls.


Stay ready for compliance reviews


ops0 continuously checks cloud infrastructure against internal policies and frameworks such as SOC 2, CIS Benchmarks, ISO 27001, ISO 27002, HIPAA, and GDPR.


Teams can see:

  • Compliance coverage by framework
  • Passed and failed checks
  • Open findings and affected resources
  • Changes made since the previous review
  • Approvals and remediation history
  • Audit evidence connected to each fix
  • Shareable compliance and security reports


This reduces the manual work of collecting screenshots, change records, approvals, and evidence before an audit.


Bring existing infrastructure under code


ops0 is built for brownfield cloud environments, not only new projects.


It discovers infrastructure that already exists, creates reviewable Terraform or OpenTofu from the live configuration, resolves dependencies, and helps teams bring resources under Git one pull request at a time.

There is no need for a large migration or clean-room rewrite before teams receive value.


Manage cloud changes from one platform


ops0 also supports:

  • Infrastructure deployment with policy and approval gates
  • Cross-cloud infrastructure transformation
  • Configuration management for Ansible and Kubernetes
  • Kubernetes security and cost visibility
  • Cloud cost reviews before deployment
  • Drift detection and remediation
  • Workflow automation
  • Secrets and external vault integrations
  • SSO, RBAC, approval history, and audit logs


Why teams choose ops0


Starts from live cloud: ops0 checks what is actually running, not only what is stored in a repository.

Moves beyond alerts: Every important finding can continue into impact analysis, remediation, policy review, approval, pull request, and audit evidence.

Read-only first: Teams can review their cloud environment without giving ops0 a direct write path.

Built for existing environments: Unmanaged infrastructure, manual changes, and brownfield estates are treated as the starting point—not as exceptions.

Connects risk, compliance, and cost: Teams can understand whether a change is safe, compliant, and financially sensible before approving it.


Who uses ops0


ops0 is designed for DevOps teams, platform engineering teams, cloud security teams, and infrastructure leaders managing cloud environments across multiple accounts, regions, and providers.

It is particularly useful for teams that have outgrown manual cloud reviews, disconnected security findings, spreadsheet-based compliance evidence, and infrastructure changes that lack a consistent approval process.


Pricing


ops0 offers a free plan for teams getting started with cloud discovery and risk management.

Paid plans start at $449 per month. Pricing is based on the number of cloud accounts and governed resources, while deployments remain unlimited. Business and Enterprise plans add capabilities such as blast-radius analysis, cross-cloud transformation, advanced compliance reporting, SSO, RBAC, budget controls, and managed governance.


The solution ultimately helps teams to stop cloud risks before they become incidents.
