From policy to runtime: open source security in the real world.

Working as a solutions architect while going deep on Kubernetes security — prevention-first thinking, open source tooling, and a daily rabbit hole of hands-on learning. I make the mistakes, then figure out how to fix them (eventually).

It is not easy to experience and write such post. This is an exceptional talent. The knowledge required to execute such task with patience is rare. Not to mention, I'm still finding it difficult to setup Prometheus and Grafana with my self hosted cluster. Started following you here and on LinkedIn. ✌🏻
