Strengthening Kubernetes: Strategies and Tools for Enhanced DevSecOps Integration

Savitha Raghunathan

Abstract: In the rapidly evolving landscape of cloud native technologies, securing applications deployed in Kubernetes environments has become crucial. This whitepaper explores security integration into DevOps, commonly called DevSecOps, focusing on Kubernetes. It outlines methodologies, tools, and practices that foster a security - first culture across multiple cloud vendors. Organizations can mitigate risks, enhance security, and maintain agility in software development and deployment by leveraging automated security testing and compliance checks by integrating security at every stage of the Continuous Integration/Continuous Deployment (CI/CD) pipeline.
