Cluster Security Lockdown

A security project that closes the default weaknesses in your live container cluster, covering network rules, permissions, resource caps, secret storage and image trust.

Overview

What this service covers

A cluster that works is not automatically a secure one. By default, every workload can talk to every other, containers get root privileges, resource limits are absent and secrets are stored in the cluster with only light encoding. Our team goes through your live managed cluster and closes these gaps without taking workloads down. Every change is committed to a manifest file, meaning the secured configuration can be reviewed and rebuilt at any time.

Deliverables

What you receive

  • Default-deny network policies with explicit allow rules for each namespace
  • Access control review so every workload identity has only the permissions it needs
  • Workload security standards enforced, such as running without root and using locked file systems
  • Requests and limits for compute and memory, based on real usage
  • Secrets held in a managed vault, synced into the cluster under control
  • Image scanning in the pipeline, backed by a written policy for critical issues
  • Residual risk report, including what we deliberately left alone
How it runs

The work in 4 stages

  1. Stage 1: Baseline scan

    An automated benchmark scan runs, and we also check by hand against recognised industry security benchmarks.

  2. Stage 2: Ranking

    Findings are ordered by how easily they could be exploited and how far damage would spread.

  3. Stage 3: Fixes

    Changes go in one namespace at a time, staging first and production after.

  4. Stage 4: Confirmation

    We rescan, check workloads are healthy and hand over all manifests.

Fit and inputs

Who it suits, and what we need from you

Ideal for

  • Clusters set up in a rush during a migration and never revisited
  • Teams completing a security questionnaire for a major customer
  • Platforms where one breached workload could get to the database

What we need from you

  • Admin rights on the cluster, plus a staging cluster that closely matches production
  • An owner for each workload who can answer our traffic questions
  • A change window for switching on network policies

You share these through the brief on your order page after checkout.

Why it helps

What changes for your team

  • A breached container can no longer roam the cluster
  • Resource-hungry workloads can no longer starve others of compute and memory
  • Written proof ready for your next customer security review
Questions

Questions about this service

We record how services actually talk before enforcing rules, and start in audit-only mode, so issues show up in staging rather than production.

Yes, for verification, through a login you issue and later revoke. You review every change before it is applied.

No, but a self-managed control plane increases the scope. Tell us about your setup before you order.

This is a remote service: nothing is shipped physically, and the work is delivered into systems you control. See delivery and handover and refunds and cancellation for the full terms.
