Summary
The Kubernetes GCP detect sensitive role access rule is designed to identify access attempts by Kubernetes accounts to sensitive resources such as ConfigMaps or Secrets within Google Cloud Platform (GCP). The rule uses data from Google Cloud Pub/Sub messages and filters for specific authorization reasons and ClusterRoleBinding interactions. By examining fields such as source IP, user, and user agent, the rule aims to recognize potential unauthorized access attempts to critical Kubernetes resources, enhancing security visibility within GCP-managed Kubernetes clusters. Although some role access may be operationally necessary, this rule seeks to differentiate between legitimate and potentially malicious activities by analyzing access patterns and decisions recorded within the Kubernetes authorization framework.
