#49 - Security the hard way

Episode #49 of Kubicast brings back the "Security" theme to talk with @João Freire, also known as P0ssuidão by his friends from the IRC days. João knows that Kubernetes security tools do not come by default, however, as he said himself: "they are just there waiting to be configured." So, we talked about security best practices, how some simple rules can prevent major problems and how some others can create major problems and leave your company colleagues with no access to anything. Speaking of security, we mentioned the work Liz Rice has been doing in the area and commented on running containers in privileged mode or as Root. ===== Program RECOMMENDATIONS: João Freire: drink lots of water on these hot days! (We recorded this Kubicast during that heatwave in September)/João Brito: Creating an internal Kubernetes (Spotify) Freedom Writers (Netflix)/Container Security (e-book) and videos from Liz Rice. ===== For comments, reviews, and suggestions, write to @GetupCloud on Twitter using #Kubicast. ===== Listen to #Kubicast on Spotify, Overcast, iTunes, or RadioPublic.===== If you enjoy #Kubicast, share the podcast on your social media.
