A Blazing fast Security Auditing tool for Kuberentes!!
Kubestrike performs numerous in depth checks on kubernetes infra to identify the security misconfigurations and challenges that devops engineers/developers are likely to encounter when using Kubernetes, especially in production and at scale.
kubestrike is Platform agnostic and works equally well across more than one platform such as self hosted kubernetes, Amazon EKS, Azure AKS, Google GKE etc.

Authenticated scan expects the user to have atleast read-only priviliges and provide a token during the scan. please use the below provided links to create read-only users
Create read-only user for Amazon eks
Create read-only user for Azure aks
Create read-only user for Google gke
Create a subject using Role based access control
# To grab a token from eks cluster
$ aws eks get-token --cluster-name cluster-name --region ap-southeast-2
# To grab a token from aks cluster
$ az aks get-credentials --resource-group myResourceGroup --name myAKSCluster
# To grab a token from gke cluster
$ gcloud container clusters get-credentials CLUSTER_NAME --zone=COMPUTE_ZONE
# To grab a token from service account
$ kubectl -n namespace get secret serviceaccount-token -o jsonpath='{.data.token}'
# To grab a token from a pod directly or via command execution bug
$ cat /run/secrets/kubernetes.io/serviceaccount/tokenUnauthenticated scan will be successful incase of anonymous access is permitted on the target cluster
