CIS Benchmark Aligned

Kubernetes & Container Security

K8s cluster hardening, container image scanning, runtime security, and supply chain controls — aligned to the CIS Kubernetes Benchmark and CNCF security best practices.

What We Cover

Kubernetes Security Services

Full-stack security review from cluster configuration to container runtime

Cluster Hardening

CIS Kubernetes Benchmark audit of API server flags, etcd security, kubelet configuration, and network policy enforcement

Container Image Scanning

Static analysis of images for known CVEs, malware, secrets, and misconfigured entrypoints using tools like Trivy and Grype

Runtime Security

Deploy and tune Falco or Tetragon for real-time behavioral detection — syscall monitoring, file integrity, and privilege escalation alerts

RBAC Review

Audit ClusterRoles, RoleBindings, and ServiceAccount privileges — remove wildcard permissions and enforce least-privilege access

Network Policy

Implement Kubernetes NetworkPolicies to enforce microsegmentation between namespaces and restrict egress to known endpoints

Supply Chain Security

Implement image signing (Cosign/Notary), admission controllers (OPA Gatekeeper, Kyverno), and registry policy enforcement

Common Findings

Misconfigurations We Find in K8s Environments

API server audit logging disabled
Pods running as root with no security context
Wildcard RBAC permissions on default service accounts
No NetworkPolicy — all pod-to-pod communication unrestricted
Container images with critical CVEs not patched
Secrets stored as plaintext in ConfigMaps or env vars
No admission controller to enforce security policies
etcd not encrypted at rest
