LLM Security on Kubernetes: Why Standard K8s Security Controls Are Not Enough for AI Agents

How AI agents expose critical gaps in Kubernetes' network and container security primitives, from prompt injection to model weight exfiltration. Kubernetes' battle-tested security primitives, RBAC, NetworkPolicies, and Pod Security Admission, were designed for microservice threat models that predate the adversarial dynamics of generative AI systems. LLM agents introduce novel attack vectors including prompt injection, model weight exfiltration, and supply chain poisoning that bypass traditiona...
