Review workflow

Trace service accounts to permissions and resources.

Follow RBAC relationships and authentication methods to review excessive permissions and credential-related risks.

01

Follow account access

Review Kubernetes ServiceAccount Non-Human Identity (NHI) through role-based access control (RBAC). Inspect resources and allowed actions in Role and ClusterRole permissions assigned through RoleBinding and ClusterRoleBinding using a least-privilege perspective.

02

Inspect long-lived tokens

Review long-lived tokens and related Secret metadata alongside their accounts and access targets. Identify credentials needing investigation without treating token age alone as proof of inactivity.

03

Review signals in observed traffic

Review credential-exposure signals in supported HTTP observation. Consider collected traffic, permissions and the observation period when selecting targets for further investigation.

FAQ

Frequently asked questions

Does no observed activity mean an account is unused?

Consider the observation period and collection coverage. Missing observations alone do not establish that an account is unused.

How do NHI, IAM and CIEM relate to RBAC checks?

NHI covers non-human identities such as services and workloads; IAM covers identity and access management; CIEM covers cloud infrastructure entitlements; and RBAC assigns access through roles. This service focuses on collected Kubernetes service accounts, bindings, roles and long-lived tokens. Confirm cloud-provider IAM coverage and integration status separately.

How do we assess excessive ServiceAccount permissions?

Inspect the Role or ClusterRole assigned through each RoleBinding or ClusterRoleBinding and the permitted actions and resources. Review cluster-admin relationships and long-lived-token evidence together. Missing activity alone does not establish that an account or permission is unnecessary.
