Kubernetes Privileged Access Management (PAM) Solution

Leading global brands rely on StrongDM

Ephemeral Access for Container Environments

In Kubernetes environments, containers are constantly created, scaled, and terminated. StrongDM’s Zero Trust PAM dynamically adjusts access in real-time to align with these changing environments, ensuring that users maintain only the necessary permissions for active resources without manual intervention, reducing exposure and simplifying management in fluid infrastructure.

Namespace-Level Segmentation

Kubernetes environments often operate across multiple namespaces, each serving different applications or teams. StrongDM allows for segmented access at the namespace level, ensuring that users can only interact with the specific resources and namespaces they’re authorized for, preventing lateral movement and containing potential breaches within isolated environments.

Secure Access to Kubernetes API Servers

The Kubernetes API server is a high-risk entry point that demands strict control and oversight. StrongDM applies secure access policies directly to the API server, allowing for real-time monitoring, authorization, and session management, which protects sensitive Kubernetes configurations and reduces the risk of unauthorized modifications to cluster settings.

"We chose StrongDM because the solution is the one solution to rule them all. You simply integrate all your data sources into StrongDM; you integrate all your servers into StrongDM; you integrate all your Kubernetes clusters into StrongDM. You give your developers one simple tool they need to connect using SSO, and they have access to what they own."
