The conference presentation discusses the development of a new pod security feature in Kubernetes and its implementation as a standalone tool for static validation of security requirements.
  • The new pod security feature in Kubernetes has significantly better security properties than legacy tokens.
  • The implementation of the new pod security feature is based on the Canadian Storage Interface (CSI) driver with back-ends for AWS, Azure, GCP, and Vault.
  • The pod security feature is a deny-based system that needs to be ordered correctly to ensure that the checks run in the right order.
  • The new pod security feature is feature-gated and not enabled by default.
  • The implementation of the new pod security feature allows for the development of standalone tools for static validation of security requirements.
