Control: Pod Security Policy should force containers to run with read-only root file system

Description

Pod Security Policy `readOnlyRootFilesystem` controls whether the Pod containers run with read-only root file system. Containers in a Pod should always run with a read only root file system. Using an immutable root filesystem and a verified boot mechanism prevents against attackers from owning the machine through permanent local changes. An immutable root filesystem can also prevent malicious binaries from writing to the host system.

Usage

Run the control in your terminal:

powerpipe control run kubernetes_compliance.control.pod_security_policy_immutable_container_filesystem

Snapshot and share results via Turbot Pipes:

powerpipe login
powerpipe control run kubernetes_compliance.control.pod_security_policy_immutable_container_filesystem --share

SQL

This control uses a named query:

pod_security_policy_immutable_container_filesystem
