Common Kubernetes Security Misconfigurations w/ Rotem Refael, ARMO

If you've ever worked with containers, or specifically Kubernetes, you are probably familiar with the basics of cluster configuration. But are you ensuring your clusters are secured properly?

In this episode, Rotem Refael, Director of Engineering at ARMO elaborates on a research study that the company did by scanning tens of thousands of repos to find out if the most obvious security configurations are being adhered to, as well as the more advanced ones.

Interestingly enough, they found that 100% of the clusters had at least one misconfiguration. We dive into some of the most frequent misconfigurations Rotem has come by and discuss how this happens and how it can be prevented.
