DOP 167: How to Secure Kubernetes
Posted on Wednesday, Jul 13, 2022
Show Notes
#167: When you install vanilla Kubernetes, which security option do you take? Trick question. There are no options. It is always installed wide open. If you’re just experimenting, that’s probably not a big deal.
However, how many times have we had an experiment turn into a production system? Probably too many times to count. At that point, retrofitting security into your Kubernetes cluster is near impossible.
In this episode, we speak with Lachlan Evenson about his thoughts on the proper strategies to secure your Kubernetes clusters.
