NeuVector📜
Overview📜
NeuVector is an open-source, full lifecycle container security platform. This includes vulnerability scanning (both in pipelines and in live production clusters), network visibility, compliance tracking and much more. NeuVector core helm chart
Big Bang Touchpoints📜
UI📜
The Neuvector UI runs on the manager, a simple pod that provides the primary way of accessing and managing NeuVector. The UI is accessible via a web application on the cluster at the DNS name “neuvector” (e.g. neuvector.bigbang.dev/). UI access is exposed through the Istio Virtual Service. For more information, see Using the NeuVector UI.
Dependency Packages📜
When deploying BigBang, neuvector depends on monitoring, gatekeeper/kyverno, and istio being installed prior.

High Availability📜
NeuVector provides High Availability for the controller and scanner deployments with 3 replicas and a default podAntiAffinity in order to attempt installation of replicas to separate nodes if possible. These can be modified by providing new values to controller.replicas and scanner.replicas accordingly.
neuvector:
values:
controller:
replicas: 3
scanner:
replicas: 3
The enforcer pods are part of a daemonset that will be based upon the number of cluster nodes - with default tolerations for standard control-plane taints. Addition tolerations can be set for nodes by appending to the existing set:
Note: The controller, manager, and cve.scanner deployments can also have their tolerations updated by mirroring this process.
neuvector:
values:
enforcer: # controller, manager, cve.scanner also have tolerations
tolerations:
- effect: NoSchedule
key: node-role.kubernetes.io/master
- effect: NoSchedule
key: node-role.kubernetes.io/control-plane
- effect: NoSchedule
key: custom-example-taint
The manager deployment houses the Security Center Admin Console and is explicitly set to 1 replica and cannot be scaled.
