The Hitchhiker's Guide to Cloud Native Security on Kubernetes
summary
Practical guide mapping cloud‑native security requirements on Kubernetes to concrete tools and steps: use SBOMs and secure base images (Wolfi/curated registries), sign images with Cosign, enforce pipeline checks with Trivy and policies via Open Policy Agent or Kyverno, and harden registries. For runtime and cluster protection, use Falco for detection, consider runtime isolation (Kata, alternate CRIs), choose networking like Calico/Cilium/Istio, enable audit logging and secret stores (Vault/Conjur), apply cluster isolation and control‑plane hardening, and use a Permission Monitor for compliance.
