CIS 1.5 Benchmark - Self-Assessment Guide - Rancher v2.5

概述

本文档是对 Rancher v2.5 安全加固指南的补充。加固指南提供了用于加固 Rancher 的生产环境集群的指南，该基准自测指南旨在帮助您针对安全基准中的每个控制，来评估加固集群的安全级别。本指南将逐步介绍各种控制，并提供更新的示例命令以审核 Rancher 创建的集群中的合规性。此文档的适用人群是：Rancher 运维人员、安全团队、审核员和决策者。

加固指南旨在与特定版本的安全加固指南，CIS Kubernetes Benchmark，Kubernetes 和 Rancher 一起使用：

由于 Rancher 和 RKE 以容器的方式安装 Kubernetes，因此 CIS Kubernetes Benchmark 中的许多控制验证检查均不适用，完成 CIS 扫描后，这些检测对应的结论是Not Applicable（不适用）。

有关每个审核的更多详细信息，包括测试失败的原因和补救措施，您可以参考 CIS Kubernetes Benchmark v1.5 的相应部分。登录CISecurity.org后，可以下载基准测试。

测试控制方法

Rancher 和 RKE 通过 Docker 容器安装 Kubernetes 服务。配置在初始化时通过给容器传递参数的方式设置，而不是通过配置文件定义。

如果控制审核与原始 CIS 基准不同，则将提供 Rancher Labs 特定的审核命令以进行测试。执行测试时，您将需要访问所有三个 RKE 角色的主机上的 Docker 命令行。这些命令还利用了jq和kubectl（使用有效的 kubeconfig 文件）来测试和评估测试结果。

说明：本文只包含了得分的测试。
