Course Overview:

Cluster Setup 🏗️

• Secure cluster access with Network security policies.
• Review and harden Kubernetes components against vulnerabilities using CIS benchmarks.
• Implement Ingress objects with robust security controls.
• Protect sensitive node metadata and endpoints.
• Minimize reliance on GUI elements for enhanced security.
• Verify the integrity of platform binaries before deployment.

Cluster Hardening 🛡️

• Restrict Kubernetes API access to authorized entities.
• Implement Role Based Access Controls (RBAC) to govern permissions effectively.
• Exercise caution with service accounts, ensuring they are securely configured and constrained.
• Regularly update your Kubernetes environment to mitigate vulnerabilities.

System Hardening 🛠️

• Minimize the host OS footprint to reduce the attack surface.
• Tailor IAM roles to the bare minimum required for operation.
• Limit external access to the network.
• Apply kernel hardening tools such as AppArmor and seccomp for added security layers.

Minimize Microservice Vulnerabilities 🔒

• Set up appropriate OS level security domains for microservices.
• Manage Kubernetes secrets securely.
• Use container runtime sandboxes like gvisor or kata containers in multi-tenant setups to isolate workloads.
• Implement pod-to-pod encryption using mutual TLS (mTLS) for secure data exchange.

Supply Chain Security 🔄

• Minimize the footprint of base images in your supply chain.
• Secure the supply chain by whitelisting allowed registries, and ensuring image signatures are verified.
• Apply static analysis to Kubernetes resources, Docker files, and user workloads.
• Scan images for known vulnerabilities before deployment.

Monitoring, Logging, and Runtime Security 🕵️‍♂️

• Utilize behavioral analytics to detect anomalous activities at the host, container, and data levels.
• Implement comprehensive threat detection mechanisms across all layers of your infrastructure.
• Detect malicious activities in real-time and investigate incidents deeply for quick resolution.
• Ensure the immutability of containers at runtime to prevent unauthorized changes.
• Use Audit Logs to keep a close eye on access patterns and behaviors within your environment.
