Summary
Kudelski Security has developed an in-house solution using Cloudflare's Identity-aware Proxy (IAP) to automate secure access for developers to different Kubernetes (K8s) control-plane APIs across multiple cloud environments. The automation tool, called 'k8s-tunnels', saves time and enhances security by enabling developers to surface all the K8s services they have access to in a given cloud environment, authenticate an access request using Cloudflare's Zero Trust rules, and establish a connection to that cluster via Cloudflare's IAP. This approach helps maintain small, micro-segmented environments and supports a Zero Trust security model.
