Kubernetes clusters can be complex environments with multiple components and configurations. Securing your software supply chain, control plane, worker nodes, and pod security policies is essential to prevent unauthorized access, resource exploitation, and data breaches.

In this session, learn about features that can help you secure your Amazon EKS clusters. Get guidance on how security practitioners and cluster administrators can protect information, systems, and assets that are reliant on Amazon EKS, while delivering business value to their customers.

This session reviews fundamentals of Kubernetes architecture and common attack vectors, security controls provided by Amazon EKS to address them, strategies customers can implement to reduce risk, and opportunities that open-source Kubernetes can improve upon.

AWS's rich set of features enable running high-security workloads on Amazon Elastic Kubernetes Service (Amazon EKS). In this session, we explore solutions with the real-life example of how HSBC's cloud services team built a secure multi-tenant platform for the company's application teams to run mission-critical containerized applications on Amazon EKS.
