No violationsstackroxlowdeploy

Alert on the presence of the Kubernetes dashboard service

Rationale: The Kubernetes dashboard can be used to gain external access to a cluster, or to obtain additional access once inside.
Remediation: Modify your cluster configuration to disable the Kubernetes dashboard service if it is not in use. In Google Kubernetes Engine (GKE), you can execute: gcloud container clusters update --update-addons=KubernetesDashboard=DISABLED [cluster-name]
