In this chapter, we took a look at basic container security and some essential areas of consideration. We also touched on basic image security and continuous vulnerability scanning. Later in this chapter, we looked at the overall security features of Kubernetes, including secrets for storing sensitive configuration data, secure API calls, and even setting up security policies and contexts for pods running on our cluster.
You should now have a solid starting point for securing your cluster and moving toward production. To that end, the next chapter will cover an overall strategy for moving toward production and will also look at some third-party vendors that offer tools to fill in the gaps and assist you on the way.
