2026-09-25 –, Murray-Fitzroy Room
Delve deeper into the dark and mysterious world of Kubernetes security. Start your journey deep inside the target infrastructure, collecting flags as you exploit your position in the environment and hunt for vulnerabilities.
Attendees can play three increasingly beguiling and demanding scenarios to bushwhack their way through the dense jungle of Kubernetes security. Everybody is welcome, from beginner to hardened veteran but attendees will be expected to be hands-on to understand more about core Kubernetes components and how they can be misconfigured and compromised.
Each attendee will be given access to their own Kubernetes cluster built within our bespoke sandboxed training environment. A laptop with an SSH client is required to participate.
Mario Weigel has been in the Linux and automation world since 2002, moving through support, testing, and systems administration before the DevOps movement caught up with skills he’d already built. For several years, he’s been consulting in complex, heavily regulated sectors to design solutions that enable security and development teams to thrive in tandem. In his own time, he leads the Auckland Kubernetes meetup.
