In this talk, we will be discussing the importance of securing your Kubernetes cluster and how you can do it using the powerful tool, "m9sweeper." As the adoption of Kubernetes continues to grow, it has become more critical to prioritize the security of your cluster.

"M9sweeper" is an open-source security tool that is designed to detect and identify vulnerabilities and misconfigurations in your Kubernetes deployment. It offers a comprehensive set of checks that cover a broad range of security aspects, including network policies, access control, encryption, and pod security.

We will also highlight some of the key benefits of using this tool, including the ability to automate security checks, improve compliance, and increase the overall resilience of your cluster.

 I first came into contact with Cloud engineering as a university student in 2016. Since then, I've worked on various Cloud/DevOps/Platform related projects, including migrations from servers to containers to serverless, building Cloud architecture on AWS, and implementing CI/CD workflows and other automations for applications and infrastructure.

Since late 2022, I'm delving into the magic of Kubernetes and other Cloud-native technologies while developing a platform at Labyrinth Labs.

DevSecOps/SiteReliability Engineer and a live-long IT enthusiast, who loves to fiddle with new technologies, optimize the existing ones and write his own code in the spare time. Currently works for LMC s.r.o., where he focuses mainly on implementation of Amazon Web Services infrastructure and designs associated release process of applications, aside from that he also maintains docker-related infrastructure for services hosted in private datacenters.

I'm an ordinary engineer who is constantly jumping between code and infrastructures. I'm posting technical content on LinkedIn, and trying to make LI a more interesting place for tech people.

I like to be in both boots - SWE and SRE. But what do I like most? It's building small CLI tools for other engineers. Most of my life I spent as programmer - touching the code. But also I was always very close to infrastructure. After years of C/C++ and Java I jumped into Go lang bandwagon. And I'm more than happy with this language.

I have a passion for container internals, runtime, distribution, and networking of containers. In my spare time, I'm blogging on okontajneroch.sk and speaking about containers on meetups for our local tech community in Kosice.

I'm a big believer in a platform as a product idea as the next step in DevOps evolution. I believe we need more product thinking in the infrastructure platform domain. This leads me to self-study of product design. Yes, I'm a big fan of Marty Cagan. CLI tools are awesome products :)
