Least privilege access and need to know must be required to access the container platform keystore.
An XCCDF Rule
Description
<VulnDiscussion>The container platform keystore is used to store access keys and tokens for trusted access to and from the container platform. The keystore gives the container platform a method to store the confidential data in a secure way and to encrypt the data when at rest. If this data is not protected through access controls, it can be used to access trusted sources as the container platform breaking the trusted relationship. To circumvent unauthorized access to the keystore, the container platform must have access controls in place to only allow those individuals with keystore duties.</VulnDiscussion><FalsePositives></FalsePositives><FalseNegatives></FalseNegatives><Documentable>false</Documentable><Mitigations></Mitigations><SeverityOverrideGuidance></SeverityOverrideGuidance><PotentialImpacts></PotentialImpacts><ThirdPartyTools></ThirdPartyTools><MitigationControl></MitigationControl><Responsibility></Responsibility><IAControls></IAControls>
