ClusterComplianceReport

The ClusterComplianceReport is a cluster-scoped resource, which represents the latest compliance control checks results. The report spec defines a mapping between pre-defined compliance control check ids to security scanners check ids. Currently, only kube-bench and config-audit security scanners are supported.

The NSA compliance report is composed of two parts:

• spec: represents the compliance control checks specification, check details, and the mapping to the security scanner (this part is defined by the user)
• status: represents the compliance control checks (as defined by spec mapping) results extracted from the security scanners reports (this part is output by starboard)

The following shows a sample ClusterComplianceReport NSA specification associated with the cluster:
