Security Monitoring and Log Analysis
In this chapter, we will discuss security monitoring and log analysis in Kubernetes environments. Security monitoring is crucial for detecting and responding to potential threats in real time as Kubernetes clusters run dynamic workloads.
You will look at the types of logs available in Kubernetes. You will go through auditing in detail and learn how to enable it to have visibility of what is happening in your environment. Also, you will learn about the tools and practices for collecting and analyzing Kubernetes logs. We will introduce how Kubernetes can be utilized to get logs and events using native tools.
We will also talk about how leveraging different log management strategies and observability frameworks makes it possible to identify unusual patterns and potential threats in cluster activities.
In this chapter, we will discuss the following topics:
