What is Secure Kubernetes?

Kubernetes has become the de facto standard for container orchestration, powering millions of applications worldwide. However, with great power comes great responsibility. Secure Kubernetes is dedicated to helping organizations implement robust security practices for their Kubernetes deployments.

Why Kubernetes Security Matters

As organizations migrate their workloads to Kubernetes, the attack surface expands significantly. A misconfigured cluster can expose sensitive data, allow privilege escalation, or enable lateral movement across your infrastructure. Key security concerns include:

• Pod Security: Ensuring containers run with minimal privileges
• Network Policies: Controlling traffic flow between pods and services
• RBAC: Implementing proper role-based access control
• Secrets Management: Protecting sensitive configuration data
• Image Security: Scanning and validating container images
• Runtime Protection: Detecting and preventing malicious activity

Our Mission

We provide practical guidance, tutorials, and best practices to help you:

1. Harden your clusters against common attack vectors
2. Implement defense-in-depth strategies
3. Meet compliance requirements (SOC2, PCI-DSS, HIPAA)
4. Automate security through GitOps and policy-as-code
5. Monitor and respond to security incidents

Core Security Principles

Zero Trust Architecture

Never trust, always verify. Every request to your Kubernetes API server should be authenticated, authorized, and encrypted.

Least Privilege

Pods, service accounts, and users should have only the minimum permissions required to perform their tasks.

Defense in Depth

Layer multiple security controls so that if one fails, others continue to protect your infrastructure.

Shift Left Security

Integrate security early in the development lifecycle, catching vulnerabilities before they reach production.
