I highly recommend everyone to watch out for the Documentary of K8S both part I and part II about the story how it was being made with a purpose with the growth of the Opensource community.

Tools

As DevOps practitioners, we wear multiple hats based on the priority of the working environment. I have been closely working with Security teams so today I would like to introduce a few tools which I have used in my working time. I will share the write-up regarding this in my blog this week.

• Kube-hunter: Hunt for security weaknesses in Kubernetes clusters

• Kube-bench: Checks whether Kubernetes is deployed according to security best practices as defined in the CIS Kubernetes Benchmark
