Policy enforced identity attestation for Kubernetes workloads with SPIFFE

With rapid increase in adoption of Kubernetes the number of workloads deployed across the enterprise is increasing exponentially. This has led to looking at security with a completely new focus.

- What does it to mean when someone says "we need to secure our workloads"?
- How does an organization ensure that every workload deployed in a cluster has its own identity and that identity is used for mutually authenticating to other workloads?
- How can these workloads be tied to organization's security policies that are managed by the PKI team?
- How can security team build an enterprise security posture that adheres to the compliance models defined within the enterprise?

This talk will give security professionals the ability to define a set a services that can be easily adopted by the platform teams that operate and run Kubernetes.

Specifically, this talk will walk through how to setup workloads deployed in a cluster to utilize organization's CA (Certificate Authority) infrastructure to sign workloads using cert-manager and utilize SPIFFE as a standard way to issue SPIFFE SVIDS.
