Why should you do an audit?

  • Detection of misconfigurations across the cluster and its components.
  • Identification of vulnerabilities in the cluster, container images, and other components.
  • Verification of compliance with best practices.
  • Reduction of attack risks through identification of weak points.
  • Early error detection to minimize the risk of failures and costly downtime.
  • Assessment of cluster resilience to component failures.
  • Ensuring operational continuity for applications running in the cluster.
  • Identification of improvement areas in processes and configurations.
  • Development of a roadmap to enhance the technological and process maturity of the cluster.
  • Implementation of planned improvements and verification of their effectiveness.

How do we conduct the audit?

The core part of the process consists in testing compliance with the 145 best practices and patterns and assigning the result of the test. A practice may be:

FULLFILLED – Test passed. No actions required.

PARTIALLY FULFILLED – The practice test showed that it is not fully fulfilled. An explanation is provided in the comments. Additional information regarding the recommended actions is described in the area summary.

NOT FULFILLED – Immediate corrective actions are required.

What does the client receive?

After the audit, the client receives a document presenting the analysis of the cluster configuration in 9 areas:

  • Cluster architecture and configuration
  • Access management (RBAC)
  • Container security
  • Network and communication
  • Resource management and performance
  • Storage and data
  • Management and monitoring
  • Backup & Disaster Recovery
  • Compliance and conformity (CIS Benchmark, NSA/CISA, MITRE)

In the final summary, a roadmap of developmental and corrective changes to be implemented on the cluster is proposed, based on the results of the analysis carried out. Each change is assigned one of the following priorities (taking into account the potential risk it eliminates)

Priority Risk Description
CRITICAL Immediate threat to security or availability Requires immediate action. Leaving the issue unresolved risks a security breach, data loss, or an interruption to critical services.
HIGH Significant security or compliance gaps Indicates significant deficiencies that should be planned and addressed within a 1–4 week timeframe. Delay increases the risk of incident escalation and loss of compliance with regulatory requirements.
MEDIUM Moderate risk, requires planning The area requires improvement, but does not pose a direct threat. Implementation should be planned within the next 1–3 months as part of the regular development cycle.
LOW Optimization and best practices Recommendations regarding optimization, automation, or alignment with best practices. Implementation can be planned over a longer time horizon (3–6 months).
