Cloud Security Architects
Designing a security least-privilege model for a new GKE production environment
使用场景
关于
The Kubernetes Engine Access Control mind map template provides a technical architecture for managing security within Google Kubernetes Engine (GKE). This 26-node guide details the dual-layer security model, specifically focusing on the integration between Cloud IAM and Kubernetes RBAC. It serves as a comprehensive Kubernetes Engine Access Control cheat sheet for DevOps engineers and security architects. The template clarifies that while a project starts with no default user access, administrators can leverage 'Cloud IAM' for project-level resource management and 'RBAC' for granular, cluster-specific object control. By mapping out 'Primitive roles' like Owner and Editor alongside 'ClusterRole' objects, this template helps teams decide when to use Google Cloud-wide permissions versus fine-grained Kubernetes operations.

IT Auditors and SREs
Auditing existing cluster access controls to ensure RBAC and IAM roles are correctly separated
如何使用此模板
步骤 1
Import the security template
Download and open the .xmind file to view the structured breakdown of Cloud IAM and RBAC hierarchies.
步骤 2
Map your specific roles
Replace the generic 'Pre-defined roles' and 'ClusterRole' nodes with the actual role names used in your environment.
步骤 3
Export for team documentation
Save your customized access control map as a PDF or Image to include in your project's internal security wiki.
常见问题
Cloud IAM manages Google Cloud resources at the project or folder level, while RBAC provides fine-grained permissions for specific objects within a Kubernetes cluster. This template helps you visualize which mechanism to use based on whether you need to manage the cluster itself or the workloads inside it.
Yes, the template includes a specific section on 'Service accounts', explaining that they are assigned roles and permissions similarly to human users for automated workload management within GKE.
Absolutely. It highlights 'Custom roles' within the Cloud IAM branch, allowing you to document unique combinations of permissions that aren't covered by standard primitive or pre-defined roles.
Yes, this is a fully editable .xmind file. You can add your own cluster names, specific user groups, or custom RoleBinding definitions to tailor the security documentation to your specific project.
