Kubernetes Security Concepts Part 1

There are multiple elements to Kubernetes where each component seems like a character in a book, pods, services, deployments, secrets, jobs, config maps, and more. In this presentation, we just focus on the security aspect of Kubernetes and the components involved. Particularly centered around RBAC and ServiceAccounts. What they are, what they do. We discuss etcd and secrets. We will also discuss other options for security in Kubernetes.

  • Kubernetes API
  • Authentication
