Runtime monitoring & threat detection

Securing Kubernetes goes beyond initial configuration and hardening—it requires ongoing runtime monitoring to identify and respond to threats as they emerge. By implementing advanced monitoring tools and proactive threat detection, you can enhance visibility into your Kubernetes environment and quickly neutralize risks. 

This module focuses on key strategies for maintaining secure operations at runtime, with insights into: 

• Container Runtime Security: Learn how to protect containerized applications during execution by identifying vulnerabilities, detecting anomalous behavior, and enforcing security policies. 

• eBPF-Based Monitoring: Discover how eBPF technology enables granular monitoring of system-level activity, providing unparalleled insights into container and Kubernetes behavior. 

• Kubernetes Monitoring: Explore best practices for monitoring Kubernetes clusters, from tracking resource usage to identifying suspicious activity within pods and nodes. 

• Threat Detection and Response: Master the principles of real-time threat detection, including methods for identifying breaches, correlating events, and automating response actions to minimize downtime and damage. 

These lessons will provide actionable knowledge for securing your Kubernetes environment during its most vulnerable phase—at runtime. With this module, you’ll gain the confidence and tools needed to protect workloads, ensure operational integrity, and strengthen your organization’s cloud security posture.
