Session
What started as a simple exercise to create Kubernetes interview questions took an unexpected turn into discovering some interesting cluster security quirks. While brainstorming scenarios to test candidates' knowledge, we found ourselves saying "wait, would that actually work?" more times than we expected. This talk shares these insights, showing how even a cluster with a common configuration can lead to surprising cluster disruptions. We will guide you through our journey, sharing both the techniques we stumbled upon and practical ways to keep your Kubernetes infrastructure safe.
