Approach to object access control

As we embark on our journey to explore the realm of securing cloud-native infrastructure, one of the primary aspects to consider is the implementation of object access control. In a cloud-native environment, a multitude of components interact with each other, from containers and services to data stores and APIs. To safeguard your infrastructure, it is crucial to establish strict control over who and what can access these objects.

In this section, we will focus on approaches to object access control in the context of Kubernetes, service mesh, and container security. Kubernetes is a widely adopted container orchestration platform that provides a robust framework for deploying, scaling, and managing containerized applications. Service mesh, on the other hand, is an architectural pattern that facilitates secure and efficient communication between microservices. By implementing object access control, you can ensure that only authorized entities interact...
