FAQ

Common questions

What is a container and Kubernetes security assessment?

A container and Kubernetes security assessment reviews containerized workloads and orchestration for weaknesses in image security, cluster configuration, access controls, secrets, network policy, and runtime isolation. It is commonly mapped to CIS Benchmarks and Kubernetes hardening guidance.

What is RBAC in Kubernetes and why does it matter?

Role-Based Access Control (RBAC) governs which users and service accounts can perform which actions in a cluster. Overly broad roles are a common path to privilege escalation, so testing checks that permissions follow least privilege and that service account tokens are protected.

What kinds of weaknesses are common in container environments?

Typical findings include vulnerable or bloated container images, overly permissive or privileged containers, exposed cluster components, secrets stored insecurely, missing network policy allowing lateral movement, and weak workload isolation between tenants.
