You fear you lack the ability to use Kubernetes securely

When you have a new paradigm, you must learn a new way of thinking about security. There is no reason to re-invent the wheel, there are wonderful tools out there to help you achieve a secure infrastructure with ease. You don’t just panic about using a locker at the gym and never go to the gym, you buy a tool—a lock—and you use it so you don’t have to worry.

If you are not sure where to get started with Kubernetes security, check out the following OSS tools:

 

Want an easy way to deploy all of these with a single agent, and help prioritizing the findings from each report? Check out Fairwinds Insights, we aggregate security findings, reveal misconfigurations and offer suggestions to solve the problem.

Validate what you've built is built right and you can sleep well at night. New paradigms are just that, and they don't have to be scary intrinsically. If you lack the expertise and experience to secure Kubernetes when you're new to it, there is great tooling that can accelerate your understanding quickly. 

A great lock does wonders for peace of mind.
