Kubernetes RBAC: Deep Dive into Security and Best Practices

Kubernetes has revolutionized container orchestration, becoming the go-to platform for managing containerized workloads at scale. However, with its growing popularity, the complexity of managing role-based access control (RBAC) on Day 2 and especially in a multi-cluster environment has become a daunting task. DevOps, SRE, and Platform teams are responsible for multiple clusters and different teams.

Top 8 RBAC Tools Every Kubernetes Admin Should Know

Role-Based Access Control (RBAC) is important for managing permissions in Kubernetes environments, ensuring that users have the appropriate level of access to resources. However, organizations often encounter challenges in effectively managing their role-based access control systems, which can lead to security vulnerabilities and compliance issues. Below are the best RBAC tools for managing Kubernetes RBAC, ensuring compliance and enhancing security within cloud-native applications.

Comparing the Leading Tools That Scan Against the CIS Kubernetes Benchmark Framework

CIS Benchmarks are a focused set of guidelines for the secure configuration, vulnerability detection, and threat remediation of distributed workloads. In this article, we compare the leading CIS tools that scan against the CIS Kubernetes benchmark framework. Security frameworks help modern software organizations define their risk management processes and platform requirements to prevent cyber threats.

Runtime security in multi-cloud environments: best practices and importance

Runtime security in multi-cloud environments encompasses the continuous monitoring and protection of cloud-based resources during their active operation. Unlike traditional security approaches that focus on static configurations or pre-deployment checks, runtime security emphasizes: This approach ensures that potential risks are identified and mitigated in real-time, providing an additional layer of protection against both known and emerging threats in complex multi-cloud setups.

Policy as code in Kubernetes: security with seccomp and network policies

The dynamic world of Kubernetes and cloud security is constantly evolving. As we explore this complicated ecosystem, it’s crucial to understand the role of policy as code (PaC) and its impact on operations and security teams. Emerging from the broader paradigm of infrastructure as code (IaC), PaC represents a significant shift in how we manage and secure cloud-native environments.

The vulnerability puzzle: understanding base images and their relationship to CVEs

Have you ever heard of CVEs? Maybe not by their acronym, but Common Vulnerabilities and Exposures, monitored by the CVE Program Mission, are everywhere. As of the writing of this article, there are over 220,000 CVE Records available—meaning many potential threats you could be exposed to. How can you ever protect your infrastructure against this reality? Well, the good news is, you usually don’t have to.

The importance of CSPM inventory

Almost all organizations either rely on cloud computing or are planning to adopt cloud computing technologies soon to ensure their businesses remain competitive and gain an edge over the competition. As businesses increasingly rely on cloud services to manage their operations, the complexity of these environments continues to grow, introducing new challenges in maintaining security and compliance. This is where Cloud Security Posture Management (CSPM) comes into the picture.
