- ninkendo 2y agoPlease explain to me about how the “network” between my browser and my kubernetes dev installation on the same computer is insecure.
- TeMPOraL 2y agoNothing in life is ever secure. "All this stuff going on about ''zero trust''" is a broad and diverse mix of good practices, hot air, fear, misconceptions about reality, and power seeking. I'd dare say that in a big way, it's practical effects are, intentionally or otherwise, disenfranchising workers, screwing with their ability to do their jobs, generating huge costs and threat exposure across the board. But it's sure nice if you're a supplier in the "zero trust" market. Also, not everything is - or should be - on the Internet; there exists more than one network. Different systems have different needs and risk profiles. Failing to recognize that fact, and trying to apply the same most strict security standards to everything doesn't lead to more security - it leads to people caring less, and getting creative with workarounds.
