In this article, you’ll learn about SSO for Kubernetes, its use cases, and how to implement LDAP SSO for Kubernetes using Loft.

Authentication helps control access to cluster resources by first verifying a user’s identity. In Kubernetes, the API server needs to verify the identity of every request it receives. Such requests may come from a program like a pod or from a human user.

Integrate Dex with Kubernetes to enable secure, centralized authentication using your organization's existing identity providers.

Discover how Dex serves as an authentication bridge between Kubernetes and various identity providers. This article explains Dex's role in facilitating Single Sign-On (SSO) for Kubernetes, enhancing security, and simplifying user management by leveraging OpenID Connect (OIDC) protocols.

Kubernetes, an automated system for managing containerized applications, offers multiple benefits to developers. It eliminates application downtime by creating a new pod automatically when an existing pod crashes, and it allows teams to easily scale applications for traffic incre...
