Get a change to investigate, tied to a service and version you supplied. Custody connects your live service roster to CVE monitoring so the review starts with the identities you run.
Add one exporter to the OpenTelemetry pipeline you already run. Service names, versions, and images arrive as resource metadata, nothing else, and become your live subject: the roster of what is actually running. From then on there is one contract: if news is not about an identity you sent, we do not send it.
We do not want your telemetry. Two hundred replicas of a service collapse to one identity; the same self-description arriving every flush interval carries one bit of news, still alive; and your spans, metrics, and logs are dropped at the door, unstored and unlogged. What we keep is attendance: distinct service and version, first seen, last seen. A Fortune 50's terabytes of telemetry are, to us, a contact sheet. If you would rather skip the collector entirely, the same endpoint accepts a periodic identity roster, a cron and a curl.
A fast-moving CVE that touches your roster becomes a push, not a discovery. Feeds publish, the delta fires, your identities match, your phone buzzes. Teams on a weekly scan-and-map cycle learn in days; you learn the same day.
*Derived below from public feed cadences and stated assumptions. Push delivery is best effort and rides our feeds and our uptime, both published.
Three services running that nobody declared. Five declared entries runtime has not seen in a month. A freshness line with a real timestamp. Each number opens its derivation, like every other number on this site.
Two locks. Your own collector, configured to strip everything except resource attributes, keeps span, metric, and log data off the wire entirely; that configuration is generated for you at sign-in, not published as a standalone document today. Our ingress drops any payload that arrives anyway, unstored and unlogged, by our own ingest code before anything is written.
We wire it in a working session with your SRE and observability team; your people hold the config. Cloud plans cover up to 5,000 active identities (a distinct service and version counts once, replicas collapse, and identities retire after 30 days unseen); higher volumes are available on request, and heavy telemetry runs On-Prem, LAN-local on your hardware, where nothing leaves your network.
Live identities, the delta lists, the scorecard they feed, and the working-session install ship with Custody: $10,000 a year, founding subscribers keep the price for life, five seats on your domain, and a direct line to the builder.
