Kubernetes Security Assessments

Kubernetes helps organisations manage and scale containerised applications across multiple servers. When clusters are misconfigured or over‑exposed they can provide an easy route into your systems. Our Kubernetes security assessments review how your clusters are designed and managed so you can run your workloads with confidence.

During our assessment we look at key areas of your Kubernetes environment, including:

  • Cluster design – network segmentation, control plane configuration and node hardening.
  • Access controls – role-based access controls and permissions for administrators and service accounts.
  • Secrets and images – how sensitive credentials are stored and whether container images are trusted.
  • Policies and logging – network policies, audit logs and monitoring to detect and prevent misuse.
  • Configuration and updates – alignment with security benchmarks and patch management.

Kubernetes clusters are complex, so we adapt our approach to your needs. A black‑box test assesses the cluster from an outsider’s perspective without access to configuration details. A white‑box test examines the cluster with full knowledge of its settings. A grey-box test combines both views. This flexibility means we can focus on the areas that matter most to you.

Our process is transparent and collaborative:

  • Understand your environment and goals through discussion.
  • Conduct a hands-on review using automated tools and manual checks.
  • Provide a clear report that prioritises findings and explains how to remediate them.
  • Offer follow-up support to help you apply the recommendations.

Protect your workloads and maintain stakeholder trust with a tailored Kubernetes security assessment. Arrange a confidential consultation with our team to discuss how we can help secure your clusters.
