KubeCon + CloudNativeCon Europe 2025

Kubernetes has come a long way over the past 10 years, and as it has evolved, so have the security challenges surrounding it. As container security professionals, we can't help but wonder what the security landscape will look like in 2030? Pursuant to that question, we analyzed security data from thousands of clusters — including Wiz customers representing 45% of the Fortune 100 — and identified the most prominent current security trends, as well as the first hints of emerging threats.

In this session, we'll look at:
- What the data tells us today - the security risks that matter most in production right now.
- Lessons learned - which past concerns turned out to be overhyped—and which are still haunting us.
- The next big Kubernetes security challenge - the shifts in attack surfaces that will shape Kubernetes security for the next decade. Particularly, we'll dive into perimeter vulnerabilities (Ingress controllers, CNIs), cloud-cluster integrations, Kubernetes as an AI enabler, and the growing complexity of managed clusters. In addition, we'll explore what these trends mean for security teams preparing for the future. Expect real data, fresh insights, and practical strategies to help you stay ahead of the game in securing Kubernetes through 2030 and beyond.
