From Perimeter to Zero Trust: Securing Kubernetes with Paralus
summary
Paralus claims to enforce Zero Trust for Kubernetes by providing controlled, audited access and eliminating firewall port changes; the demo shows a Helm install, adding three CNAME records for domain routing, importing a minikube import cluster via a downloaded bootstrap and seeing a relay agent check-in, running kubectl from the browser, and integrating via GitLab OAuth. It enforces RBAC at project/group level (read-only yields an immediate forbidden on writes), supports instant revocation, and produces automatic audit logs.
