Debugging and Troubleshooting Kubernetes Secrets
So far, we have identified the attack vectors for Kubernetes Secrets. Two of them are encryption at rest and encryption in transit. Previously, in Chapter 3, Encrypting Secrets the Kubernetes-Native Way, encryption at rest helped us increase our security at rest and in transit. In this chapter, we will focus on debugging issues that we might have with Secrets. Secrets play a critical role in storing and providing sensitive information used by applications and services running in a Kubernetes environment. They are crucial to our applications, and understanding how to effectively troubleshoot Secret-related issues can save lots of time and effort.
In this chapter, we will expand on the following topics:
- Discussion of common issues with Kubernetes Secrets
- Debugging and troubleshooting Secrets
- Best practices for debugging and troubleshooting Secrets
By the end of the chapter, we will have acquired the knowledge...
