Conventions used

There are a number of text conventions used throughout this book.

Code in text: Indicates code words in text, database table names, folder names, filenames, file extensions, pathnames, dummy URLs, user input, and Twitter handles. Here is an example: "In our case, we want to let every authenticated user on the cluster create privileged Pods, so we bind to the system:authenticated group."

A block of code is set as follows:

apiVersion: networking.k8s.io/v1
kind: NetworkPolicy
metadata:
  name: full-restriction-policy
  namespace: development
spec:
  policyTypes:
  - Ingress
  - Egress
  podSelector: {}

When we wish to draw your attention to a particular part of a code block, the relevant lines or items are set in bold:

spec:
  privileged: false
  allowPrivilegeEscalation: false
  volumes:
    - 'configMap'
    - 'emptyDir'
    - 'projected'
    - 'secret'
    - 'downwardAPI'
    - 'persistentVolumeClaim'
  hostNetwork: false
  hostIPC: false
  hostPID: false

Any command-line input or output is written as follows:

helm install falco falcosecurity/falco

Bold: Indicates a new term, an important word, or words that you see onscreen. For example, words in menus or dialog boxes appear in the text like this. Here is an example: "Prometheus also provides an Alerts tab for configuring Prometheus alerts."
