Course Outline
Cluster Setup
- Apply Network security policies to limit cluster-level access.
- Utilize the CIS benchmark to audit the security configuration of Kubernetes components (etcd, kubelet, kubedns, kubeapi).
- Configure Ingress objects with appropriate security controls.
- Safeguard node metadata and endpoints.
- Reduce reliance on and access to GUI elements.
- Validate platform binaries prior to deployment.
Cluster Hardening
- Limit access to the Kubernetes API.
- Leverage Role-Based Access Controls (RBAC) to reduce exposure.
- Exercise caution with service accounts, such as disabling defaults and minimizing permissions on new ones.
- Maintain frequent Kubernetes updates.
System Hardening
- Reduce the host OS footprint to minimize the attack surface.
- Streamline IAM roles.
- Limit external network access.
- Effectively employ kernel hardening tools like AppArmor and seccomp.
Minimizing Microservice Vulnerabilities
- Establish appropriate OS-level security domains using PSP, OPA, or security contexts.
- Implement robust management for Kubernetes secrets.
- Deploy container runtime sandboxes in multi-tenant setups (e.g., gvisor, kata containers).
- Enforce pod-to-pod encryption using mTLS.
Supply Chain Security
- Reduce the size of base images.
- Secure the supply chain by whitelisting image registries, signing, and validating images.
- Perform static analysis on user workloads (e.g., Kubernetes resources, Dockerfiles).
- Scan images for known vulnerabilities.
Monitoring, Logging, and Runtime Security
- Analyze syscall processes and file activities at the host and container levels to identify malicious behavior.
- Detect threats across physical infrastructure, applications, networks, data, users, and workloads.
- Identify all phases of attacks, regardless of origin or spread.
- Conduct deep analytical investigations to identify bad actors within the environment.
- Guarantee container immutability during runtime.
- Utilize Audit Logs to monitor access patterns.
Requirements
- CKA (Certified Kubernetes Administrator) certification
Target Audience
- Kubernetes practitioners

As i said before , for a person like me (no exp. ) this was a gateway to understanding features and functions with these programs/tools & etc. .
