Alexander Pirker
Last updated: Wednesday, November 22, 2023
Published in: CODE Magazine: 2023 - March/April
In this article, Alexander Pirker discusses the importance of security in Kubernetes clusters. He explains that while Kubernetes provides flexibility and ease of use, there are security considerations that need to be addressed. Pirker covers various aspects of Kubernetes security, including securing service account tokens, making the root file system of containers read-only, isolating network traffic among namespaces, avoiding hostPath mounts, protecting sensitive information in ConfigMaps, encrypting secrets, and properly configuring RBAC. He emphasizes the need for operators to be aware of these security considerations and implement best practices to protect their Kubernetes clusters.
