The presentation discusses the challenges of locking down Providence metadata fields in Tecton and proposes a solution using Spiffy Inspire for strong attestation and verification.
  • Tecton users have direct access to objects and metadata fields, making it difficult to lock down Providence metadata fields
  • Kubernetes cluster classes are managed by different entities, making it challenging to restrict access to metadata fields
  • The Task Run object becomes a main attack point for malicious actors
  • The proposed solution involves creating a trusted computing base and restricting access to metadata fields
  • Spiffy Inspire provides strong attestation and verification for the trusted computing base
  • Future work includes extending the solution to other custom resources and validating artifacts passed between tasks
