Kubernetes Fortification: Hands-On Defense-in-Depth

9:00am – 12:00pm ET | New York, NY

Session Overview

Kubernetes has become the beating heart of modern cloud-native architecture. Yet, while it enables faster development and scalability, it also opens doors to complex security risks. This intensive, hands-on workshop is built to confront those risks head-on. 

Kubernetes Fortification: Defense-in-Depth invites attendees to step into a high-interactivity environment where they will simulate real-world attacks and practice mitigation strategies in a controlled, isolated Kubernetes lab setup. With an emphasis on practical defense strategies, participants will build not only skills but also muscle memory for responding to security incidents.

What You’ll Experience

  • Realistic attack simulations: Exploit misconfigured service accounts, insecure dashboards, exposed pods, and network misconfigurations.
  • Tactical defense exercises: Enforce RBAC, network policies, audit log reviews, and isolation techniques.
  • Personal sandbox environment: Every participant receives an isolated cluster to explore, attack, and secure.
  • Mentor-guided training: Security experts provide real-time feedback and best practices

This Is Your Chance To:

  • Explore privilege escalation via misconfigured service accounts
  • Exploit and defend against exposed dashboards and pods
  • Analyze network misconfigurations and isolation failures
  • Perform forensic reviews using audit logs
