Tutorial: Mind Your Pod's Business: Network Isolation Workshop - Surya Seetharaman & Miguel Duarte Barroso, Red Hat; Keith Burdis, Goldman Sachs

Thursday April 3, 2025 11:00 - 12:15 BST

Level 1 | Hall Entrance N11

Your cluster's network may be secure enough for your boss, but is it secure enough for the EU? Learn how you can use network segmentation to meet regulatory requirements.

By default, Kubernetes allows unrestricted communication between all pods in a cluster, which does not meet the security standards required by the European Union’s NIS2 Directive. NetworkPolicies can restrict traffic, but they are complex and leave gaps for Layer 2 (eg. Ethernet) use cases, such as virtualization networking and telecom services on Kubernetes.

In this interactive tutorial you will gain hands-on experience on how to achieve native isolation for your workloads (pods and VMs) in Kubernetes using CNCF projects CNI, KubeVirt, and OVN-Kubernetes - no prior experience needed! Through step-by-step guidance, you will learn to configure these plugins on your KIND clusters, create isolated networks and attach workloads to these different networks that meet high security standards.
