Welcome to this blog post on “Installing Kubegoat in a Kubernetes cluster running on VMs.” In this post, we will walk through the steps of installing Kubegoat, a tool designed to simulate real-world Kubernetes cluster misconfigurations and vulnerabilities, in a Kubernetes cluster running on virtual machines.

In addition to installing Kubegoat in a Kubernetes cluster running on VMs, we will also go through and solve each module of Kubegoat. This will provide a hands-on learning experience and help us understand how to identify and fix common misconfigurations and vulnerabilities in a Kubernetes cluster.

In a previous blog post(https://pswalia2u.medium.com/deploying-kubernetes-cluster-2ef2fbdd233a), we discussed how to deploy a Kubernetes cluster . If you haven’t already, I recommend reading that post first to get a better understanding of the basics of setting up a Kubernetes cluster. With that knowledge in hand, we can now move on to installing Kubegoat and exploring its capabilities.

Installation:

Prerequisite: The Kubernetes cluster should be up and running.

  1. Cloning the kube-goat project.
git clone https://github.com/madhuakula/kubernetes-goat.git
