Benefit from our K8s pentesting service
Real-world scenario simulations
Our service provides you with realistic insights into how attackers might exploit Kubernetes’ unique features, so you know exactly how well your defenses hold up.
Defensive logging and monitoring validations
We show you where K8s may miss logging vital security events, ultimately improving the visibility and response capacity of your security operations.
Enhanced compliance confidence
Beyond just meeting security standards, we reveal unique compliance gaps specific to K8s, ensuring you're actively secure against nuanced risks.
Optimization plan included
You always get the results of pentesting alongside an improvement roadmap to fix the vulnerabilities right away.
Typical workflow for K8s pentests
- 1 Reconnaissance and data gatheringWe learn more about your K8s environment, including its architecture, configurations, and network setup.
This stage helps identify accessible services, nodes, and containers, as well as any potential weak spots in the setup. - 2 Attack surface mappingHere we map the attack surface, focusing on key components like pods, services, RBAC, and network policies.
We assess areas like container images, API server configurations, and ingress/egress points to prepare targeted testing. - 3 Exploitation and vulnerability testingWe simulate attacks to exploit misconfigurations, vulnerabilities, or weak permissions.
This includes testing for container escape routes, privilege escalation, lateral movement, and API abuse, aiming to understand the impact of a successful breach. - 4 Reporting and remediation recommendationsWe document findings and provide detailed reports, including discovered vulnerabilities, their impact, and prioritized remediation steps.
This stage also includes a debrief session to ensure your team understands the vulnerabilities and how to implement effective fixes.

FAQs related to K8s pentesting
Is Kubernetes a testing tool?
Though Kubernetes is mainly used as a container orchestration tool, it is a multi-tool that can be used in different ways for testing. You can set up different environments and pack your app in various container combinations to test the speed and other indicators of your program efficiency. If you’re asking in the context of the pentesting Kubernetes can offer, then you should probably get a direct consultation from our specialists.
How is Kubernetes deployment tested?
There are a lot of tools created for testing of k8s deployment. For example, you can conduct the test of your environment running kubectl to check the rollout statuses or to run the CI process. Also, you can use other specialized tools for deployment check. The penetration testing Kubernetes allows users to check the security issues of their environment and the k8s project.
Where can I test Kubernetes?
You can test your k8s environment both locally and cloud-based. If you’re asking about companies that can help you with Kubernetes penetration test, then you can contact us for clarification of details. We’ll analyze your project and send you an offer with an action plan for testing your project.
How do you run tests in Kubernetes?
Generally, we run tests in any k8s projects using a dedicated Test Environment. With this approach, we cannot cause any damage to your existing infrastructure and test the fixes of the revealed problems right away before taking it to the production k8s environment.
How do you test Kubernetes locally?
Typically, we copy the production environment to the local storage and run all the tests we need. After completing the tests, we apply the changes in the test environment, and if everything goes smoothly, we take everything back to the production k8s cluster.
