Understand the risks of tampering in Kubernetes environments, how it affects components like etcd and container images, and learn strategies to detect and prevent tampering through best practices and security controls.

Tampering is the act of changing something in a malicious way to cause one of the following:
Denial-of-service: Tampering with the resource to make it unusable
Elevation of privilege: Tampering with a resource to gain additional privileges
Tampering can be hard to avoid, so a common countermeasure is to make it obvious when something has been tampered with. A common non-Kubernetes example is packaging medication—most over-the-counter drugs are packaged with tamper-proof seals that make it obvious if the product has been tampered with.
