Kubernetes Attack and Defense: Break Out and Escalate!

Container break-out seems inevitable. Once outside of a container, an attacker can escalate privilege and possibly end up owning the entire cluster. As attackers, how do we break out of the container and then how do we escalate privilege? As defenders, how do we reduce the odds of a container break-out, while reducing its blast radius? In this demo-heavy presentation, we'll answer these questions, demonstrating attacks and defenses that you can take back and repeat on your own clusters.
