Course Outline
Cluster Setup
- Apply Network security policies to limit cluster-level access
- Leverage CIS benchmarks to assess the security settings of Kubernetes components (etcd, kubelet, kubedns, kubeapi)
- Configure Ingress objects with appropriate security controls
- Safeguard node metadata and endpoints
- Limit the usage of, and access to, GUI elements
- Validate platform binaries prior to deployment
Cluster Hardening
- Limit access to the Kubernetes API
- Employ Role Based Access Controls to reduce exposure
- Exercise caution with service accounts, such as disabling defaults and minimizing permissions for new accounts
- Keep Kubernetes up to date with frequent updates
System Hardening
- Reduce the host OS footprint to minimize the attack surface
- Streamline IAM roles
- Limit external network access
- Utilize kernel hardening tools such as AppArmor and seccomp effectively
Minimizing Microservice Vulnerabilities
- Establish appropriate OS-level security domains using PSP, OPA, or security contexts
- Manage Kubernetes secrets securely
- Employ container runtime sandboxes in multi-tenant settings (e.g., gvisor, kata containers)
- Implement pod-to-pod encryption via mTLS
Supply Chain Security
- Reduce the base image footprint
- Secure the supply chain by whitelisting approved image registries and signing and verifying images
- Conduct static analysis of user workloads (e.g., Kubernetes resources, Dockerfiles)
- Scan images for known vulnerabilities
Monitoring, Logging, and Runtime Security
- Analyze syscall processes and file activities at both host and container levels to detect malicious behavior
- Identify threats across physical infrastructure, applications, networks, data, users, and workloads
- Detect all phases of an attack, regardless of its origin or propagation
- Conduct deep analytical investigations to identify malicious actors within the environment
- Maintain container immutability during runtime
- Use Audit Logs to monitor access activities
Requirements
- CKA (Certified Kubernetes Administrator) certification
