Sidero Labs is moving the Talos Linux Cluster API providers to community maintenance. The code stays open source and nothing breaks.

Talos Linux removes attack surface at the node. Omni extends that across the fleet, enrollment, encrypted management traffic, access policy, secrets, and recovery.

The Talos Platform approaches fleet management differently. Here is how eliminating config drift and unverifiable state removes two categories of operational cost from platform and security teams.

Most Kubernetes security programs try to harden a mutable OS after the fact. Talos takes the opposite approach: remove the attack surface entirely.

Your patch windows and testing process is going to get you hacked. It's time to move from reactive vulnerability management to proactive software curation.

Even if your kernel has vulnerabilities, security is applied in layers. You can minimize the threat impact. That's why Copy Fail barely touches Talos Linux.

Tired of upgrades that worked in staging broke production or identically configured clusters that behave differently? Teams must start by addressing the root architectural cause.

Talos Linux currently requires zero Go vulnerability exclusions. And it isn't by coincidence.

Is your platform team spending more time firefighting than building? For organizations running Kubernetes at scale, infrastructure drift, manual patching, and unreliable upgrades have become the normalized cost of doing business.

We’ve made operating hardened and production-grade nodes more practical through talosctl debug, improved OS upgrades, config diffs, and more.
