Attention Kubernetes admins! That kubeconfig your developer just downloaded has credentials that can compromise not just their system but potentially your entire Platform! Stop taking the risk and switch to using kubeconfigs that can be securely distributed to users. In this talk, we will discuss how an open source solution, Pinniped, helps solve your problem of secure kubeconfig generation. Pinniped kubeconfigs can be safely distributed as they don't have any user specific credentials. But users have authentication requirements beyond just safe kubeconfig generation, such as seamless cluster access without having to login multiple times a day, support for multiple clouds provider access, and the ability to integrate with various identity providers. In our session, we will deep dive into the architectural components of Pinniped and explain how they help solve the authentication challenges for Kubernetes users.
