**Kubeshark** is a network observability platform for [**Kubernetes**](https://kubernetes.io/), providing real-time, protocol-level visibility into Kubernetes’ network. It enables users to inspect all internal and external cluster connections, API calls, and data in transit. Additionally, Kubeshark detects suspicious network behaviors, triggers automated actions, and provides deep insights into the network.
|
||
|
||

|
||
|
||
Think [TCPDump](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tcpdump) and [Wireshark](https://www.wireshark.org/) reimagined for Kubernetes.
|
||
|
||
## Getting Started
|
||
Download **Kubeshark**'s binary distribution [latest release](https://github.com/kubeshark/kubeshark/releases/latest) or use one of the following methods to deploy **Kubeshark**. The [web-based dashboard](https://docs.kubeshark.co/en/ui) should open in your browser, showing a real-time view of your cluster's traffic.
|
||
|
||
### Homebrew
|
||
|
||
[Homebrew](https://brew.sh/) :beer: users can install the Kubeshark CLI with:
|
||
|
||
```shell
|
||
brew install kubeshark
|
||
kubeshark tap
|
||
```
|
||
|
||
To clean up:
|
||
```shell
|
||
kubeshark clean
|
||
```
|
||
|
||
### Helm
|
||
|
||
Add the Helm repository and install the chart:
|
||
|
||
```shell
|
||
helm repo add kubeshark https://helm.kubeshark.co
|
||
helm install kubeshark kubeshark/kubeshark
|
||
```
|
||
Follow the on-screen instructions how to connect to the dashboard.
|
||
|
||
To clean up:
|
||
```shell
|
||
helm uninstall kubeshark
|
||
```
|
||
|
||
## Building From Source
|
||
|
||
Clone this repository and run the `make` command to build it. After the build is complete, the executable can be found at `./bin/kubeshark`.
|
||
|
||
## Documentation

|
||

|

|
||
## Additional Use Cases
|
||
|
||
### Dump All Cluster-wide Traffic into a Single PCAP File
|
||
|
||
Record **all** cluster traffic and consolidate it into a single PCAP file (tcpdump-style).
|
||
|
||
Run Kubeshark to start capturing traffic:
|
||
```shell
|
||
kubeshark tap --set headless=true
|
||
```
|
||
> You can press `^C` to stop the command. Kubeshark will continue running in the background.
|
||
|
||
Take a snapshot of traffic (e.g., from the past 5 minutes):
|
||
```shell
|
||
kubeshark pcapdump --time 5m
|
||
```
|
||
