Abstract: The rise of containerization and the widespread adoption of Kubernetes have revolutionized the way applications are deployed and managed. This paradigm shift has introduced new security risks and challenges that must be addressed. This paper delves into the various security threats and vulnerabilities associated with Kubernetes, exploring mitigation strategies and best practices to enhance the overall security posture of containerized environments. Kubernetes, as a leading container orchestration platform, has become the de facto standard for managing and scaling containerized applications in modern IT infrastructure. While Kubernetes offers numerous benefits, such as improved scalability, portability, and resource optimization, it also introduces a unique set of security concerns that must be carefully navigated. This paper aims to provide a comprehensive overview of the security threats and challenges faced in Kubernetes environments, as well as the current approaches and tools used to address these critical issues.
